I am not The X Factor
Don't get excited, this is not a post about a talentless talent show.It's just a brief note about a possible break in transmission. And about boring technical issues. I'm sorry I had to get your attention on false pretenses. Needs must sometimes...The thing is, I'm trying to use my domain name, … [Read more...]

A Valentine’s Surprise
I love surprises.Yesterday morning after a busy week of theatre-going I woke up with a terrible throat and no voice.'I'm not going anywhere today,' I whispered to Husband.'Oh,' he said and sounded really disappointed.'They won't mind,' I said a little puzzled.

I have nothing to wear
Further from my post about serial multi-buying, I now have a situation which anyone could have predicted: I have nothing to wear. I do have several decent and nice outfits to wear to the office, or at home, or to see friends or go shopping. But there's a specific occasion coming up: My son's … [Read more...]
Spring on its way at last?
I was taken aback this afternoon when suddenly the sun started shining over the plains as we drove West from London. It seemed so bright I quickly scrambled for my sunnies in the glove compartment of Husband's car, but by the time I'd got the cold frames onto my nose, the grey landscape was back, … [Read more...]
