Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
Long conversation with the daughter in the UK this morning via ‘chat’. A week or so ago she’d gone to her GP about a problem with one of the kids and after chatting to her had referred *her* to a psychiatrist. Ok I know it sounds ‘bad’ but there were real reasons for her to … More Genetic Inheritance.
Yet again a totalitarian regime finds itself unable to relax its hold on it’s population even in the face of imminent disaster. It happened in North Korea, and it’s happening again with the effects of the recent cyclone escalating daily. Despite a massive international aid operation backed to the hilt by the United Nations waiting … More Burmese disaster.
Been updating the eldest daughters blog site (at Possoms Corner) – not done much really, new theme, some adverts… always need people clicking on them whichever site it is! If you have a few seconds nip over and say hi, I’m sure she’d appreciate it! I’m looking at the other sites now to see what … More Bizzy little me…
It’s a bit of a worry that the picture I posted below was me as I am not some image forced through image morphing software! I’m not exactly a fresh faced youngster any more! 😀
You may have noticed a few changes on the sidebars, for example more adverts and a couple of new boxes dotted about. Nothing to worry about, just adjusting the ‘selling’ side in case someone decides an advert is attractive and clicks to find out more. Of course the more clicks the more ‘return’ I get … More Just fiddling.
Like it or not my mother is becoming more and more frail as she ages. My father has now become a full-time carer as my mother is virtually unable to take care of herself in even the most fundamental ways and can’t be left alone for more than a few minutes at a time, and … More Health Care in the UK
Tried to contact Aldi Australia to enquire about a faulty product (the MP4 player we bought the daughter for her birthday). I listened to their recorded message, chose my option… and pressed ‘6’. The phone went dead. I did this several times and each time… the line went dead! Eventually after ringing yet again someone … More Aldi Australia
Wouldn’t claim that for a second but I’m running out of message headers. Nevertheless there is a point to the post. Hot on the heels of making up Sally’s business site I decided to create yet another blog site for my own use. After writing the post on ‘motley’ a few minutes ago I thought … More Site for sore eyes?
I love the English language, which is a good thing since it’s the only one I speak. One of the endearing features about it is the number of odd little words that pop up occasionally in normal speech. Often they are part of colloquialisms to which we pay little attention reeling them off as a … More English as she is spoke.
We’ve had one or two nice days to remind us of what Australian weather is supposed to be but again a change has brought more rain. The temperatures are nothing to write home about either with 4ºC showing on the cars thermometer yesterday morning. True the cloud cover has resulted in the chill being taken … More Raining again.
