The witterings and observations of an ageing 25+x year old

Proper Preparation …

After all the shenanigans with the doctors that I’ve had over the last few years around my chronic indigestion/heartburn and the fact that I was on (injurious) medication for over 20 years without either anyone explaining the risks or me being savvy enough to research for myself up until about five years ago, I feel as… Read More Proper Preparation …

My Take on Corona

I, like a lot of people in the world, am getting very tired of the pandemic and the mixed messages coming from those in supposed authority. It has been mandated to wear face masks in enclosed spaces for a little while now, yet for months we were being told that masks were of little value. … Read More My Take on Corona

Pet Trials and Tribulations, Part 2

Three days after the equine vet had been to see Obi (and of course it was a weekend evening) Cara decided to start coughing and vomiting.  After 10 minutes she still hadn’t managed to bring anything up other than a bit of foam and it was tinged with pink so I called the emergency vet… Read More Pet Trials and Tribulations, Part 2

Pet Trials and Tribulations, Part 1

It has been an expensive couple of weeks.  Firstly, Obi went really lame about 3 weeks ago to the point that he had managed to chip off the front of his hoof and was hobbling.  First point of call was, as usual, the farrier.  He came out and trimmed off Obi’s feet and I decided… Read More Pet Trials and Tribulations, Part 1

Gardening – 21 June

Thanks to the inclement weather, I’ve taken a couple of days off from working the garden other than making sure the potted plants weren’t being blown to smithereens or battered to death by the rain.  The tea rose was a little humpy about it all and so I sheltered her under the glass topped table… Read More Gardening – 21 June

Gardening – 17 June – Slowly Slowly

This morning I found myself twitching a little bit after my morning coffee and as we have rain forecast for the afternoon, I headed out again just after 08:00. Although I didn’t have a plan (and never seem to have a firm one) I knew that the rest of the patio needed to be weeded… Read More Gardening – 17 June – Slowly Slowly

Click Bait and Other Scams

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck “Share this post for the chance to win (insert your prize of choice)” A page on Facebook purporting to be a well known airline offering 500 people a free flight to their choice of… Read More Click Bait and Other Scams

Gardening – 15 June – Riddling!

Sometimes you just have to slow down. And that’s exactly what I’ve done over the last week. I keep telling myself this is a marathon and not a sprint and not everything has to be done immediately. Of course, the fact that I’d done something to my ribs when weeding beside the kitchen door (as… Read More Gardening – 15 June – Riddling!

Gardening – 3 June – Digging!

It’s no good.  Despite swollen sore hands, I cannot just sit on my bum for too long when there’s still weeding to be done! The day started out a bit overcast however and it was raining very lightly.  Surprisingly I picked up the spade and out I went to tackle the rear bed.  I figured… Read More Gardening – 3 June – Digging!

Gardening – 1 June – The Claw

In my previous work incarnation as a secretary, I developed RSI.  For anyone who doesn’t know, it can be an extremely painful condition.  I had two really bad bouts  back in the 90s.  The first bout lasted roughly six weeks – both hands were swollen so badly that you could barely see I had knuckles… Read More Gardening – 1 June – The Claw
