A lifestyle blog
Oh blimey. Well that narrows it down on the Gallery this week then. There are very few body parts on this blogger’s body that I would consider showing the world. For many reasons, mostly on the grounds of taste. So I decided to show you a part of my body that is always on display and that I have talked about before but you might have missed it. In fact
I talked before about why I think books win over a Kindle, an in fact that post is one of my most read as people Google “books vs Kindle”. Yesterday I came across another reason. I spotted the above book sitting on top of the dog’s cage. The dog’s cage in our home office is a bit of a staging post. Stuff that needs to be reviewed, books that need
Yes, sorry, this is a rant about a company this week. I tend to shy away from these as sometimes the other side hasn’t had a chance to put their view across but I was so enraged by the end of my dealings with them this week I thought “sod it, that is my Ranty Friday”.
The Gallery This week is One Title No Words
This is it then. The announcement of Secret Thing part II. And by getting to this point you have already seen the picture above and know what we have planned. Well actually we don’t have it planned we just know we want to do it and we can’t do that without you. We have no idea what date we will start on, the exact route, how many will be involved.
When I was asked earlier this week if I would like to interview Kirstie Allsop and find out a bit more about her recent trip to Tanzania with Comic Relief, I leapt at the chance. Having worked in the property industry for 12 years I am a huge fan of hers and love her “no nonsense” approach to life. But this chat wasn’t about her passion for property, or mine,
If you haven’t seen last Sunday’s episode yet, look away now. This post contains a spoiler and if you are planning to watch it over the weekend ahead of this week’s instalment, then as much as it pains me to say it, sod off now. Right. So by reading this bit, you confirm you have seen it and know the scene I am talking about? So here goes. That scene
I have written before of my experience with mental health issues, not my own, but how other’s battles have affected my life, and the lives of those I love. And of suicide. How the suicide of a loved one has long lasting and devastating effects for those left behind. As part of Mental Health Week this week I was approached and asked if I would donate a blog post to
Lazy like a Sunday morning. That’s how the song goes isnt it? And Sunday morning is the theme for The Gallery this week. To be honest our Sunday morning this week was rather lazy. And a bit weird. You see we woke up in the Malmaison Hotel in Reading, having stayed there after our night in Henley. Now I love waking up in hotels but I have a bit of
And so another amazing year for Henley Literary Festival ends. If you haven’t been before then I really suggest you look into going next year. It’s a “must do event” for us now. Monday morning and I was at “From Blog to book” hearing how Helen McGinn and Maggy Woodley have translated their phenomenally successful blogs into books. Both in very different ways. They gave us lots of
I tell you what gets my goat. That The goat thing I haven’t got a ruddy goat. Have you? Has anybody that you have ever met got a goat? No. So how can somebody or something get it? They can’t. Nor can they get on my wick. I am not a candle. I haven’t got a wick. They also cannot get my back up. The only thing that gets my
It’s back, Baby. Comic Relief was this year and that means one thing. Sport Relief is next. And I am thrilled that Team Honk have been asked by Comic Relief to help support and promote the events they have planned. And let me tell you, they are some plans. And already there are bags of excitement, BAGS. Weeeeelllll you know that the award-winning, fun-raising phenomenon commonly known as TEAM HONK
