“Note to self: Fix loose cupboard door” Do you have things around the house that need repairing? Maybe you have some clothes that need adjusting, some cups that are chipped, a light bulb that isn’t working, or taps that need decalcifying? What does this have to do...

A friend asked me if anyone was reading my blog. He asked if I got many likes or comments. I thought it was a funny question because I know there are people out there reading who don’t hit the like button or comment but they are still reading. What has been super nice...

It’s Saturday night, it’s 11.13pm and I’m starting (not finishing) to write this blog post. When I worked for a company, I often worked long hours, but it would be unusual for me to be working on a Saturday night. I would more likely be found curled up on the sofa...

“Please can I have the macadamia nut chocolate, the champagne truffle and the dark chocolate, thank you” pointing to the tray of chocolate. You know me, I’m a chocolate lover, so I was in heaven. Honold (1) run the “schoggi tram” every year. This year I went twice,...
