On cross pollination
Someone out there appears to have been meddling. I haven’t found out who they are, but I’ve found the result of their work. What exactly they were trying to achieve is a little bit unclear, and how they got there is beyond mind-boggling, but there you go. I present you…. …the leopard-slug! (or in this […]
On productivity and independence
Don’t you just love it when your project decides it wants to look like this?? Or this:

On the usual suspects
So. Here we are again. My house and me. Faced with a whole lot of chaos and a deadline and armed with only 14 hours, of which I plan to sleep through at least 8. I’m going to yet another wedding tomorrow and won’t be home until AFTER my dearest BF arrives. I’ve told him […]
On Chaos practise
People are always talking about the chaos theory If they knew me better, they could talk about the chaos practise. Especially if they watched me packing and/or trying to catch a bus.
On rain at lunchtime
The canteen at work is designed for people to go in, sit down, eat and leave again. It’s not designed for everyone to sit around talking once they’ve finished eating. Today it rained. Very very hard. It started raining at midday, just after I’d got to a table and sat down. The people who had […]
On perfume shopping (part 2)
The perfume fiasco didn’t go unnoticed by my dearest DB. We didn’t have enough time to rectify the situation before the wedding and I thought I’d got away without buying one until we were on the boat to England a couple of weeks later. The trouble with ferries is they are equipped with dutyfree shops […]
On perfume shopping (part 1)
– or shopping with SD continued- I’ve experimented with perfume even less than with make-up. I hate it when people leave scent trails, unless they’re REALLY good ones, and then I stalk them MWAHAHAHAHAA!!! No. I don’t really stalk people. I’m just really fussy about the ones I would stalk if it was down to […]
On make-up shopping
– or shopping with Swimming-D – I don’t wear make-up. I was going to add ‘ever’ but that would be lying. I dabbled in it a lot, or rather dabbled in a lot of it, as a toddler, smearing lipstick over my forehead, cheeks and chin while my mother wasn’t looking*, and again as a […]
On polishing ones fingers
It’s not recommended. In fact, I would say you shouldn’t do it. It’s the sort of thing that can mess up your plans. Except, thinking about it, my plans mostly aren’t up to scratch, so they might as well be messed up or completely got rid of. Sometimes doing things you shouldn’t do seems to […]
Quote: daring greatly
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who […]
On Kindergarten Windows
I love how creative kids are. I love the different interpretations of a task, “draw a butterfly, colour it in and cut it out”. All the butterflies are different and that’s fantastic. I think it’s brilliant when the stuff the kids make gets put up on the walls or the windows. Today the train I […]
On being informed v being ignored
I have a boyfriend 🙂 This happened at some indecipherable point between the beginning of May and the middle of June. I don’t think it’s all that important to have a date, but he does so we’re going to have to think of one. It’s now August. I’ve told most people the news. I’ve also […]
On Perfect days
(Anyone who read my earlier posts – or spoke to me during May – knows I was invited to spend a week “messing about on a river” (and connecting lakes). This post should have been posted directly after getting back (mid June) but somehow wasn’t. I’m going to post it now anyway) ________________________________________________________________________________ Some days […]
