Food, Trains & a Wet Trip to London
Ah the great English weather is back…I’m stuck in the house again. Had a light dinner after so much heavy eating, some parma ham draped over a melon, some pork pie and carrot/cucumber with houmous and taramasalata.

A Trip to The Garden Center – If You Like Flowers Look Here
I went to see my decrepid old gran, who’s reaching 100 soon.. We took her to the Garden center for lunch, it’s quite nice there. English weather still get’s me though, if you sit in the shade, and there’s a breeze you need to put a jacket on..but if you move out into the sun […]

So yeah I did manage to get on the plane the second time, I didn’t miss it again, flight was smooth, slightly earlier than planned they gained some time. Watched a Spike Lee movie on the plane […]
Book Review – Sorting Out Billy by Jo Brand
Martha had never progressed much beyond hating her father for being cruel to her and her mum, even though he was supposed to be a man of God. Martha was now 38 and eight months pregnant. She told everyone that she didn’t know who the baby’s father was, but she knew perfectly well it was […]

On Friday, Shaun is in a rut. At 29, he’s coasted through life–and still hasn’t gotten very far, usually winding up at the local pub, the Winchester.
