I’m not a morning person – but on holiday, with nothing to get up for, I was up with the sun! Wales. Sheep on hills. At the entrance to the camp site was a field of sheep. Sheep – all spread out, more likely to show a sheep’s bottom than a face – so used Read More …
Uncover the Trembling Seat now
I was happily shopping in Meadowhall – upstairs, downstairs… happy, until I discovered that I was stuck! Cars were going nowhere! I could not leave. Not a shopping experience now – just a long wait, another check on car progress (none) and more waiting. That’s when I found the Trembling Seat. The Trembling Seat When Read More …
Make History
Ever felt you’re missing something? I was a child in a Primary School doing the daily diary. No wonder I managed to miss the enormity of major International news! Historical moments come into our lives but we still need to be ‘tuned in’ to what is going on. What is the Word on the Wind? Read More …
Fruitful
I branched out into a new land of fruit recently. I have discovered – blueberries in porridge! This is a new experience. As a child I don’t ever remember seeing blueberries in the shops and was brought up with apples, bananas and pears – so the blueberry was new territory to me. Still – it Read More …
Up for the challenge!

Green Water
What turned the water green? Have you been watching swimmers dive into green water recently? Why was the water green? I have no idea – but everybody knows the water was supposed to be blue. Thousands of people saw the crystal blue water shimmering invitingly on day one. They know what was – and therefore Read More …
A Clear View
I went badger-watching once – sat quietly on a hill with others who were mesmerized with the view. Sadly, I was not mesmerized. I was not seeing what they were seeing! Seated in the right place at the right time – and still not seeing! Oh I was concentrating and anticipating – but no badgers. Read More …

Walking backwards
The invisible squid! Apparently, people love to watch cats being stupid! Me too! Recently I saw the cat catching a squid clip, where the squid simply puts its tentacles over the cat’s face – and the cat walks backwards. Very funny. Days later, when someone spoke of depression, I saw that cat again. Those tentacles Read More …
Focus
How to be productive I had a dream……. (Of course, in Dreamland everything can be a bit surreal.) A friend took me to the home of a top designer of trainers. The place was rather secluded and the front door was really not easy to find. This was not a door that many people walked Read More …
