From cocktail to cocktail (to cocktail)
Sunday, July 25th, 2010Last week was another long week. Which is why, by approximately 18:20 on Friday evening, I was on my 2nd cocktail and had well and truly switched off my brain. I’ve not switched it back on yet. So that was how the weekend started and yesterday it continued with much fun as the parents (straight [...]
Good bacteria
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010If you visit The South, you will come back germ-ridden. My trip Down South with Mark this weekend was really, really great. Anything I do with that boy turns out to be really great, quite honestly. He got ma & pa’s seals of approval in, oh, I would say 5 minutes flat. And they got [...]
Do we look like school kids?!
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010When visiting Tesco to buy alcohol, ensure that all people accompanying you have i.d. Otherwise, you may find yourself in the scenario that me, my sis and James found ourselves in this weekend when we went to buy cider. Let’s not forget that I am 30 in October. Wonky will turn 27 tomorrow. And James [...]
No place like it
Sunday, February 21st, 2010This is the 3rd delightful weekend I’ve had in a row. This time largely thanks to Wonky + husband, who chauffered me to Tesco, chauffered me back home, chauffered me over to their place and then cooked me a delicious roast dinner and wouldn’t allow me to lift a finger. Love living this close to [...]
That’s the slobbing part done then
Monday, December 28th, 2009Now that Christmas is over, time to get on with it. So, fingers crossed, we have a van for tomorrow and, having spent £11.32 on sweeties for the journey, tomorrow is the Day of the Big Move North. The next couple of days, what with driving to Slough to fill the van with boxes to [...]
Only at Christmas

Christmas things
Thursday, December 10th, 2009Nobody is too old for Christmas things. Back in Slough now. For just 11 more days and then that’s me done with The South (Christmas in Cambridge aside). Had a lovely few days back home this time. Did lots of Xmas shopping. Ate lots of lovely food, either paid for or cooked by daddy. He [...]
From the comfort of my sofa…
Saturday, November 7th, 2009…I today managed to secure the home where my next one will be. Thanks to my sister and her husband (!) who went to house-hunt for me, took photos and gave me their expert opinions. Where would I be without them eh?! I should say, actually, it was more my sister who was giving out [...]
2 dead batteries and one full memory card
Wednesday, October 28th, 2009If attending the wedding of a much loved friend or relative, ensure you take tissues and a very large and well-charged camera. Photos of The Day are now online and will hopefully illustrate the story of Wonky’s wedding that I am about to tell. Are we all sitting comfortably now?! Then I’ll begin… My journey [...]
