Welcoming Autumn
The winds are changing now like guards whose shift is done. New strength is being sought for tasks that are to come. Sun shyly hides but bright when seen through gathered clouds up high. Their many shades of grey add interest to the sky. The trees are what we notice, their colours not unseen. Floating…

Laziness or Divine Intervention?
If you’re a regular reader of this blog you’ll be aware of the issues I’ve had at the allotment this year. Of all the things I thought were problems caused by something I’d done, one that constantly niggled at the back of my brain, was the fact I hadn’t finished sewing a new zip onto…

Have You Tried This On Your Dog?
I’ve noticed something about our dog and his meal times – not including his recent bout of ill health which we strongly suspect came about after eating a baby rat (he caught another one at the weekend). I don’t know about you but I’d gotten into the habit of feeding our dog sardines in mixer…

Sourdough Crackers
I thought I’d share a recipe with you today, for a change. Its not something I do often as I’m either following someone elses or throwing in ‘a bit of this and a bit of that’, in a style that wouldn’t be out of place in the first Act of Macbeth. Today, however, I’m going…

Poorly Dog
Our poor wee dog was sick, my hairy child was ill. Breathing fast and shaking, then lying very still. We took him to the vet, to see what they could do – the pound signs on the wall, should have been my first clear clue. 50 quid to see him, 20 for a jag, “He’ll…

Why Didn’t I See It Before?
Our garden isn’t big – front or back. Our allotment is 10m x 20m – mental note to self to show you more photos of it. However, in the garden, I have planted several pots of herbs, veg and have tried to sow flower seeds wherever I can find a gap. What I’m finding though,…

British Rail – A Student’s Journey
The horn blows again as the trees go blurring past. They’re all moving backwards and disappearing fast. I decide to buy a drink when the trolley man comes round, What else can I afford with my one little pound? I took out a can and he gave me a cup, I assume its to avoid…

When Every Week Is A Rollercoaster!
Is it meant to be like this? One minute you’re up, the next you’ve been smacked in the face with a smelly dead fish – metaphorically speaking of course. We’re back to homeschool or Smarticus as we call it now as anything with the word ‘school’ in it has been banned by dear son. We’re…
