Hurrah, we’re going on holiday tomorrow. Of course I shouldn’t be here typing, I should be finishing off the packing. Today wasn’t the busiest of days for migraine related reasons.
It’s a year exactly since my dad fell and broke his hip. He’s not doing too badly but does walk with a limp, it hasn’t stopped [...]
I feel quite sure that shouldn’t be a blog title during the Summer holidays, however that is what I spent my morning doing. I was at my desk before 9am and left it at 12.40pm. I have done a few things that needed doing and will go in again after our holiday to do some [...]

I do apologise for the title, I think I may have been living in Essex too long.
Yesterday I went to the Hayward Gallery to see the Antony Gormley Exhibition. I must confess that I am a bit of a sceptic when it comes to this sort of thing, however I did like the idea of [...]
