Another thing they don’t tell you about home ownership is not to stand down wind should you decide to treat your garden to a dose of seasol or charlie carp fertiliser. For the uninitiated, seasol and charlie carp are highly concentrated kelp and fish liquid fertilisers that one dilutes into a container which you then [...]

Having sanded back and painted the retro planter I freecycled with Mr and Mrs Rule-Britannia (who have recently had a baby Rule-Britannia) as well as the atomic planter I freecycled with The Amazant Monsieur H word has got out that I like the retro/atomic concrete planters and that there is a standing welcome to most [...]

I’ve been playing with a tilt-shift iPhone app at work…and at home: Expect more, is all I am sayin’
Seasons Greeting

My overlords have reminded me that they would like to pass on their seasonal and festive greetings in a manner befitting their regal station. Their message to all and sundry is as follows: May your clothes always be accessorised with the fur of a cat(s) who loves you, May your toes never find the pile [...]

Today was Day One of summer holidays for me. Day ONE. Summer HOLIDAYS – no amount of random capitalisation, bolding and italicising can communicate the joy that is 3 weeks of doing whatever I want, whenever I want in whatever pair of pyjamas I am refusing to get out of on that particular day of [...]

Anyone with an XX chromosome who attained teenage personhood around 1987 (as opposed to diaperhood, adulthood or even not yet conceived hood), will be attempting to tell me that its the Dread Pirate Roberts. The Dread Pirate Roberts, not the Dread Pirate Pouncealot. Those of you who don’t get the joke need to rent The [...]

Nothing says relaxed like a Sunday afternoon sprawl on the bed, with one paw out to catch the breeze… Who are you calling uptight?

Despite her Majesty’s best efforts to suppress my future rhubarb plantation using a similar approach to her suppression of my future nasturtium plantation, four remaining plants (of the 8 initially planted) have so far survived. I planted the rhubarb out the back near the compost bin as all reputable gardening experts (i.e. my 3 gardening [...]

Free to a good home, one small 4 legged ginger alarm clock: Alarm clock appears to be environmentally friendly snoozed powered kind – great for eco conscious person. However it does not appear to have a time setting other than 4.30am, which is slightly unfortunate for anyone who likes to sleep-in or who likes to [...]
