An alarm clock incident
I had a slight incident this morning. On the days I am in the office (as I was today), I set my alarm for 4.30am. (I get in early). I can comfortably doze until 1/4 to and still be out … Continue reading
Fixer Pog
I can sew. I can cook (only cookies and banana loaf, but that still counts, right?). I can’t, however, do DIY. I try. And 90% of the time Dad or a fixer-man has to spend twice as long fixing my … Continue reading

It’s lovely having Sister 2 living opposite. Except for when she goes to work, I work from home and Bertie, her Boxer dog objects to being left on his tod. I thought he’d get a sore throat from barking for … Continue reading
