A few months back when we decided to announce the new house. We took a poll amongst friends about a name for the house. There were lots of suggestions as well as a shortlist we had already discussed. I will not bother with a review of them. The winner as you can see is “Mountain Days”. It was a short trip to this name. We are sailors and Van Morrison fans. We live most of the year on our sailboat. Aptly named ” Days Like This”. So the name is a continuation of a mantra. Mr Morrison got it right.
“When it’s not always raining there’ll be days like this. When there’s no one complaining there’ll be days like this. When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch. Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this. When you don’t need to worry there’ll be days like this. When no one’s in a hurry there’ll be days like this. When you don’t get betrayed by that old Judas kiss. Oh my mama told me there’ll be days like this. When you don’t need an answer there’ll be days like this. When you don’t meet a chancer there’ll be days like this. When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they fit. Then I must remember there’ll be days like this. When everyone is up front and they’re not playing tricks. When you don’t have no freeloaders out to get their kicks. When it’s nobody’s business the way that you wanna live. I just have to remember there’ll be days like this. When no one steps on my dreams there’ll be days like this. When people understand what I mean there’ll be days like this. When you ring out the changes of how everything is. Well my mama told me there’ll be days like this”
We look forward to spending some Days Like This at our new home soon. We hope you do as well.
