“‘Living in ‘The Now’? What’s going on, indeed?” you might ask if you were interested, and – let’s face it – you probably aren’t, but if you read (or now care to read) the post I wrote on 27th September you’ll see that it was my first in over two years. “Ok, so you’ve just […]
Anyone who was a regular reader of my blog will know that it always included a ‘Sunrise (or Sunset) Over Swindon’, so here’s a lovely sunset to start us off, and thanks for having clicked on this page too! Right. My last post was on 31st August 2014. At that time I’d thought I was […]
I’m currently faced with the daunting prospect of having to spuce up my recently deceased father’s house ready for sale, so an unexpected email from the Mumsnet Bloggers Network offering me the opportunity to apply to test the new Kärcher SC 2.500 C Steam Cleaner couldn’t have arrived at a better time. I felt very lucky to find out I’d […]
Many Soap characters take an extended break – either to cover a real life pregnancy, personal crisis, or simply as an opportunity to just recharge their batteries after an extremely protracted storyline. Last night saw the departure of Coronation Street’s Carla Connor for a four-month break, and – boy – does she deserve it. Having been […]
After having been away Thursday night, I’d caught up with Thursdays Soap’s on Friday afternoon, then gone out for a meal with the Swindon 105.5 FM ‘Girls About Town’ team last night (photos in this tomorrow’s blog). I wasn’t feeling 100% (and as I knew I had two hours-worth of Friday’s Soaps to watch before […]

* 9th May This site is under revision ‘As we speak’, so it may look a bit odd, but please bear with it! * It’s felt like years since the last time, hasn’t it? It rained here in Swindon, but hardly enough to float a rubber duck really. Noah’s having to diversify, but I’ve just […]
Just Kidding! No, actually, after having had no interest in it, I sat in my office and not only watched it, but blubbed the whole way through, and if I’d have had a flag I’d have waved it. What a spectacle. Made you proud to be British – apart from Harry having forgetten to have brushed […]
Happy Easter to you all. It’s so good to see the trees bursting into life and (despite the lack of rain recently), watch everything turning green again, isn’t it? Spring’s definitely ‘sprung’, but let’s hope this current warm spell isn’t Summer – as has been the case in Swindon for the last couple of […]
They say a week’s a long time in Politics. The same could be said of my week this week. In last week’s blog I told you how I’d started working with a new woman and that it was all change for me. Well, that’s all on hold. Two reasons: firstly, it didn’t work out between […]
