Hens hit Bath

As Saturday morning arrived bright and early thanks to the large resident cock (no pun intended)…(well ok, I meant it a little bit)… I awoke to the rustic beamed ceiling, the view from yesterday’s post, and silence.

No cars, no buses, no general buzz of a town waking up.
No alarm clocks, no small children jumping on [...]

Bad Taste Bridesmaids

What can I tell you?
For someone who was a little nervous about spending a weekend with a bunch of people of whom she only really knew about two of very well, I think it went ok.
Seriously, I have just spent 3 days and two nights with a bunch of the loveliest girls. Though we [...]

She says, “I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what I wanted everyone to do. I wanted to do something that hadn’t been done before, but also something creative. It’s not as easy as it looks from the other side of Fun Monday. Then I [...]

Handbags at dawn

My lovely blog buddy Akelamalu invited me to do a meme where you empty the contents of your handbag/purse for all to see. I’m going to make this short as I’m away this weekend and have so much to do.
Ready?
Ok.
The instructions are:

2. Take a [...]

Packing to do, ironing to do, shopping to do. Can’t stop.
Except to tell you that today Miss M called me ‘weird’. She even used it in the right context as I was wandering around the house in a top, and knickers and one slipper. Don’t ask.

Where am I?

The creative and fabulous Gattina is our Fun Monday host today and her request is that we show her our blogging space.
I’d love to say that I spend my writing and reading time here…

Or that my view as I blog away to my little heart’s content is this,

But let’s face it, that would [...]
