First up I’d like to congratulate Lynette on guessing The Taj Mahal in my Google Earth competition, check your e-mail’s Lynette and send me your address so that I can post your prize.  As I only had a couple of entries I wont do another competition but if you do want one just leave me […]

Today’s post is a mixed bag.  First up I’d like to wish Cherry, over at Tales From Pixie Wood all the very best in her up coming marriage.  She is a lovely girl and her most recent post, talking about her pending nuptials, sent me right back to those special days leading up to my […]

You are not going to believe what happened to me today…
I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars for dinner.
I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars and asked, ‘If I give you this money, will you […]

When I was about ten years old my parents gave me a record player for my birthday, along with an album titled ”Abba”, I still have it today (note to self to check eBay prices!).  I played that record over and over again; all the while holding my hairbrush and pretending to be Agnetha swishing my long […]

With such a beautiful array of colour it was easy get creative.  I’ve had these two big letters for ages, they are gifts for a girlfriend who has two very lovely little girls, Abby and Lilly.  I just need to paint the edges in a dark pink which will set off the letters and they will be […]

I’ve been crook with a nasty flue over the past week and not felt much like blogging or anything else for that matter.  Lucky for me as my blogg has been up and down like a fiddlers elbow, apparently the server has “issues” mmmmmm.  I’m not really sure what’s been going on but each time I’ve […]

A few months ago I mentioned that I had started to go through menopause and that I had been really suffering with hot flushes.  The flushes had become so often that I was having them hourly, which is very unpleasant.  I did a bit of online research and found that a lot of people got […]

I love movies of all kinds, old, new, love stories, thrillers and especially musicals, I guess I just love watching a good movie.  Over the past month I have watched a couple that I’d seen before but forgotten how fantastic they were, so I thought I’d do a post on “my all time favourite movies”.
 
First up is The Color […]

Thank you for the lovely comments on my last post, I got just a little paranoid that you’d all left me never to return!!  There was a small story behind that beautiful lily from my husband.  It was a peace offering!  My lovely husband had been spending far too much time on the xBox and not attending to all […]

When I got home from work today this beauty was sitting on my kitchen bench, isn’t she lovely.  My husband has great taste don’t you think?

Now to other news.  I’m not sure if it’s me or my blog but over the past week comments have dropped from 5 or 6 per post to only one!  […]
