My igoogle homepage has a ‘How To of the Day’.
Generally it’s something slightly geeky or cheesy that you might not really need, such as ‘How to Lasso an Eel’, or ‘How to shave the word “paprika” onto the back of a skunk’.
But todays made me click on it.
It MADE me.
No it wasn’t the “How to […]

I love this song.
Mr B introduced me to Lou Reed when we first got together and I think he’s wonderful.
I love that his voice isn’t perfect.
I love that he looks a bit craggy,
and I love that he writes these amazing […]
This isn’t Jo, it’s Ashley, making sure YouTube videos display correctly. Hopefully this YouTube video of Mr B’s band, B-Movie, will show up. If it does, please enjoy the song, if it doesn’t, please leave a comment below.
Please scroll down for today’s Fun Monday.
Lovely AOJ over at the Lurchers wants us to describe in words and/or pictures our favourite walk.
So we had a lovely day planned today. We would visit Mr B’s mum, aka Grandma, and go on the lovely walk over the field to the park, then back home by the river.

I think part of her appeal was that she was just a completely genuine person. She had no agenda, saw the […]
Miss M showcases the Homely Ferret and her new favourite word…
Hope you’re all having a fab Saturday.
Today Miss M brought this home from school;
Me: Oh that’s lovely babe. We must clean our gerbil out his weekend mustn’t we?
Miss M: “And den she will have no germs and be pink.”
Me: “Erm, well she’ll be in a nice clean house M, but she’ll probably stay brown. ”
And me and my […]
Miss E and Miss M go to a catholic school.
It’s a good school. My brothers went there. My mum taught there. It’s family, but it was still a tough decision to send them there as although I was brought up Catholic, I don’t go to church much anymore.
I still have a faith […]
When I first had Miss E in 2000, I was what some might consider to be quite a young mum. I was 25, just finishing a degree in English, and pretty broke. Mr B was also studying, and though I worked between 24 and 31 hours a week on the Slimming World Sinline […]
Today it is Earth day.
As in , the earth.
So we plan to take the bus home instead of adding our petrol fumes to the ether, (This has nothing to do with my mum not being able to pick us up and Mr B needing the car, honest) and we have seeds to plant.
Of course this […]
