Me!

I write about things. Sometimes. Welcome to my world.

On polishing plant leaves

– Or ‘what I do with my free time’ –   Planning is overrated, pointless and a waste of time. I think I’ll give it up. I haven’t yet, but I might. It would save me a lot of bother and probably time and effort as well. Someone’s bound to ask how I’ll notice the […]

On plans, mice and men

On Plans (especially the best-laid ones): I was up really early today. I guess it ‘helped’ that I hadn’t slept so well, and that I’d got a text in the middle of the night so my phone flashed all night (which it also does just before the alarm rings). I got up, dressed, had breakfast…and […]

On blutack and clingfilm

Just don’t. I thought I was amazingly clever wrapping up my ball of new bluetack in clingfilm before taking it somewhere. No fluff. No stuck together bag. No greasy marks on anything. However.

On playing “Flyady says”

(-or “Mission One”-) I went through the site and found everything I’m supposed to be doing today/this week. Note: This turned out rather longer and more complicated looking than I wanted it to be. I thought about writing all the bits in their own posts but that would just be silly. However. I don’t need […]

On social inneptness

(however that’s spelled)   Move house more than once as a kid? Have unregular mealtimes? and bedtimes? Live ‘out in the country’? Ever not have ‘the Thing’ eveyone had? Been homeschooled?   If you have artistic parents give yourself several bonus points.   I was witness to a remarkable discussion this lunchtime where any one […]
