. When you wake up to the news that it is World Gin Day you can’t let this day go unmarked. Though even I drew the line at cracking open the G&T at 8am. Truth be told though I don’t like G&T because I don’t like tonic. Gin and lemonade is more my thing, or of course the legendary Mummy B Martini in a pint glass.
. I don’t do travelling light. I never have. And quite frankly I never will. I am going away for, let’s say four days so NEED four outfits. At least. Possibly even six if we are doing a posh dinner. Or if I am out all day and want to change in the evening. I also want a change of shoes. And toiletries. And make up.

.Karcher K4 Compact Home Review Buying a new pressure washer can be a bit of a head scratching moment, there are so many to choose from, where do you actually start? Well I would suggest the Karcher K4 would be a very good place to start. Is the Karcher K4 any good? Well hey say a picture paints a thousand words so I am going to let you see for
. It’s weird. This is one of those posts that I am starting and not knowing what I am really going to say. Well that bit isn’t weird, alot of my posts start like that. The majority of them though, I know where I am going with it. With this I don’t. But I started this blog as a place to get things out of my
. . Halfway down the stairs is a stair where i sit. there isn’t any other stair quite like it. i’m not at the bottom, i’m not at the top; so this is the stair where I always stop. For the last half a dozen years my favourite place has been right on the bottom edge of Barbados. Where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. Just in front
. What was I thinking when I decided to get 21 birthday presents for Caity’s birthday?! Alongside deciding I would get 50 for Mr B who turned 50 five days later? I must have been mad. But actually thanks to the internet I managed to get all of them without even leaving my desk. These are some of my favourites that I got Caity The Easy Lock Now

How does your Garden Grow (#HDYGG) is from Buckingham Palace this week! I know. Get me. We could have been in any park on Wednesday afternoon. The sun was shining. People were strolling, arm in arm, or in small groups. Some were stopping to admire the plants, others to take a picture with the impressive building behind us.
