Hello everyone I hope you’re all keeping well and not too anxious considering the circumstances in the east of Europe. I have written a further post on My Other Blog on the situation, which as you know you access via the icon. And in the meantime, my skirt arrived! Yay!!!
This and that and a question – should I get this skirt?

Hi everyone Hope you’re all well and safe and if you’re in the UK I hope you battened down the hatches on Friday, and enjoyed (if that’s the right word) Storm Eunice and the wind from indoors. We had an interesting few hours in our top floor flat – we
It’s a buy-nothing month, plus a few memories of my nursing life!
Hi everyone Many apologies but life, the universe and grandchildren got in the way! But here I am with another post. And with no new charity shop finds, because I have decided to buy nothing this month, I shall shop my closet as they say. Here’s an example, it’s a

The end of the year blog reviews – 2021!
Hello everyone Did you all have a good Christmas? We did and are still Covid free despite meeting up with our son and daughter and their respective families. Phew! But we all did our Lateral Flow tests beforehand and with everyone being negative we got together and it was just
Here’s wishing you a very Merry Christmas!
Hello everyone How are you all? Tired but happy, OK, or a bit down from all the news of ‘you know what’? Well, apparently, we should be happy that this variant is less serious, and that’s good, and yes we should feel encouraged, yet I think that won’t be the
