It happens every Xmas. There is one day that just disappears. However hard you try, you just can’t remember what you did. Mainly, this is because you actually did nothing. Didn’t get dressed, didn’t go out, maybe watched repeats on TV and ate a bit from the fridge. Maybe had a drink or two and [...]

Very excited. Discovered that I have been subscribing to an online ‘wine’ account since the summer and had forgotten!! Went online and got a £50 voucher added to the sizeable account! Ordered 2 cases of good wine (Xmas sorted and free bottle of fizz!!! ) and then got £60 cash back towards the next order!! [...]

Trees told Ellen she couldn’t get a hamster. Something about the cat eating it! Ellens solution was to go and make her own! Very creative. The big one is called Nibbles by the way! She’ll take requests.

You see, I made a basic mistake. Michael next door needed to haul a new arial up on to the roof (it was a long way up on the ladder and I don’t think he fancied carrying it) and so daddy ingeniously tied 2 towropes together to make an impromptu hoist. Before you ask, yes, [...]

That’s got the house in order. Grass cut, garden tidied, weeding done & delivered to the dump. All 3 floors cleaned, boxes to the charity shop, ironing up to date. Through it all, the girls have basically amused themselves. Very sweet, when they are not trying to kill themselves! Thought I would leave you with [...]

We’d better all get our spiritual houses in order. The Pope is coming to Twickenham. Just round the corner in fact! See – Read it here .. http://www.richmondandtwickenhamtimes.co.uk/news/8239768.Pope_to_visit_Twickenham/?ref=mr Blimey!
Ellen’s birthday turned out a scorcher! It was May Fair at the school, and take it from me, there was not a lot of shade on that field. Still, all seemed to go well. Barn dancing went down a storm, cakes were eaten, and Mummy didn’t win on the tombola. Last time she gets to [...]
