2010 has been a frustrating year for me. It’s been the year when my frozen shoulders went from annoying to “I’ve been in debilitating agony for months” and then back again to merely annoying (thank God!) It’s been a year where I’ve felt as if I was in transition, but I haven’t known from what…
Despite Christmas being a bit of a last minute emergency affair for us this year, it turned out to be a very good one. It was a last minute affair because we had been intending to go to my MIL’s this year, but she lives up North, and when the roads were bad with the…

I just got this in my inbox. Unfortunately I can’t phone my Senator due to being British and therefore not having one. However, if I could, I would, so I’m reposting it here for anyone in the USA who does have a senator they could call. ~*~*~*~ That’s right. In a surprising move, Sen. Harry…
by Jessica at the Read React Review blog. I studied Philosophy at university so it gives me enormous glee to see my work discussed in the light of Plato. (I fangirl him, and his proof of the immortality of the soul makes me grin.) She really nails the characters of both John and Alfie, and…
