Northern Lights

Air Fryer - Do You Put Yours Away?

How Did That Happen?

25 years ago, I'd just be getting ready to go out. Very high heels were always part of the attire. I had some wicked shoes. Now I am curled up on the sofa in a comfy cardy and jeans wanting to go... ...

Clarkson's Farm

New Mattress

I am suffering more and more with back pain. I find it very difficult to get comfortable in bed. This morning I got up and went and slept on the sofa where I always get comfortable. I've decided... ...

Nature Or Nurture?

I took on 2 kittens who had been chucked out like rubbish when they were about 10 weeks old in Sept 22. They are SO different in character! One is very clingy and does not like to go out too... ...

Silly Supermarket Substitutions

I've had a couple. I thought thyme instead of tarragon was pretty awful, WKD Blue instead of Spiced Rum was a bit naff but today takes the biscuit. Ordered my normal hair dye which is an... ...
