Menoturals; First Friday Filmclub

Joining in with the LLB gang and their Nature Friday hoppity-hop... and I watched the full film of the trailer I am about to provide you and wholeheartedly recommend that you go search your various platforms to make sure you get to watch it too... Honestly, it is the most heart-warming, heart-thumping, heart-healing thing you will watch all year! Here in the UK, we had it come up on Channel 4, but it was also advertised as being available on Disney+, Nat Geo, and Hulu... but do your own search. Do not miss out on seeing this film...

She's a cutie, and here's hoping it all goes well with her!

Menoizikul; Midweek Musicalisms

Okay, I've decided that I will still use birthday months as a prompt, but pick one composer, then provide several different pieces to enjoy. The composer will be one that I probably don't listen to a lot myself, so it will be a good exercise for my ears and brain to sort out what to include! 

For July, the pick is Leoš Janáček. Although quite a well-known name, I rather think I may have been exposed to some of his more avant-garde items earlier in life, which coloured my view and I have, perhaps, avoided him since. It was, therefore, rather a joy to curate this month's offerings for your delectation. Let us begin with an item that falls well into the general listening category and is not at all difficult...
