Hi everyone How are you all? Weather good where you are? I read of bloggers across the pond who currently have weather in the 90s! That’s, of course Fahrenheit, which would be 32C in our part of the world. I grew up with Fahrenheit measuring temperatures (how many of you
Two skirts and another update on the move!
Hi everyone I hope you all had a good Easter. Actually is it me or has it become a tad commercialised these days with all the exhortations to buy Easter eggs and other goodies? Who remembers when the bakeries opened on Good Friday morning (when everything else was shut) and
More about last month’s no-buy effort and a reveal!
Hi everyone How are you all? I hope the events in Europe are not impacting on your mental health too much. I say that from the privilege of not being in Ukraine or any country embroiled in war. I find I have to ration my news watching and I don’t
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

Distractions, brain fog and ways to be positive
Hello again If you thought that the last post I put up was a little thin, apologies, I have been quite distracted these past few weeks. First of all, I took a couple of weeks to write a 3000+ word piece for My Other Blog. New followers I need to
Suddenly it’s Summer!
Hello everyone It’s almost mid-May and up to a few days ago I was still wearing socks and long-sleeved winter woolies and sleeping under a winter duvet. Last week we had frosts in the morning – it’s been so unseasonably cold here in the UK. And yet it’ll be June
