Some things in life strike me as unnecessary. Today, the winner is an impersonal Christmas email from Woolworths Everyday Rewards. Is it impolite if I don’t respond.?

According to the very helpful resources of the Internet, we did indeed laugh like drains at bookclub last night. We were both coarse and loud. Well I was anyway. I don’t presume to speak for the others, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t me making all the noise. And I imagine there was some discomfort […]

Keeping with what seems to be my current old time vibe of watch, listen and singalong here’s something you can karaoke to as you read. (I’m on holidays today so I’ve got plenty of time for browsing youtube!) This is a classic ballad and I actually didn’t realise it was by The Hollies until Anne […]
