I had to look up 'stick coffee'. Now I know what it is.

When flicking dog poo off the lawn, be a bit more careful with flicking technique, otherwise small pieces can fly straight up in the air and land on your head.
In other news, I just had my second shower for the day to wash my hair free of smelly brown flecks.

Today isn’t such a good day for me. My brother rang me and I learned my mum has cancer. Stomach cancer and cancer of the lymph nodes I think it is.

I rang the children, Junior offered to drive me and is driving me there today. I still have two bags with Christmas and birthday presents, one bag for my brother who lives on the other side of Mum - gifts are always left at mum’s place. I think I’ll still take them because this Indunno if mum will be here next Christmas and next birthday. Mum’s birthday is in January.

I'm so sorry, Phar - I know she's very elderly, so that's scary news. I hope she's comfortable - thinking of you and your family.

To each his own. I know everyone has different tastes, but honestly? I can hear my grandma and mum now - “A fool and his money are soon parted!”

It says "signed by Hokusai". I am guessing that that means that he impressed his chop/seal on them?

Limoncello on ice with a splash of sparkling water makes a very acceptable way to start the weekend.
Feeling fancy.

That it's not worth saving 7 Euros buying a bag of cockels instead of vongole at the fish markets. Vongole are far superior in texture and taste.

cockels are good cooked on a sheet of corrugated iron over a bbq and then splashed with malt vinegar just b4 eating.
On the beach... while the sun sets...

Well yesterday. If your perfume bottle gets knocked off the basin and the atomiser gets damaged it's not as simple as replacing the top.
I had to get my dad to operate on the bottle and perfume is now in a plastic spray bottle not a pretty Tiffany bottle.
