Ok, numbers aren’t important. Well, hmmm. I guess that depends actually… When I started writing this blog I realised quite rapidly that I could track the number of people clicking on it. ‘It’s not important’ I tell myself on a regular basis, … Continue reading
Dinner anyone?
You might want to give this one a miss if you are a veggie…. A few weeks ago I came home from work to discover the latest gift that the boys had brought in. Half a piece of raw bacon. … Continue reading

A weirdy old week…
Wow, it’s been a weirdy old week. Snow in Bumpkinsville meant that Sister 1 had to extract me in her 4×4 on Sunday so I could get to the station and to Milton Keynes for a training course. Of course, the trains … Continue reading
