Now you don’t need to be a genius to know who’s head this is.  It’s pretty obvious it’s beetle.  You would recognize it anywhere wouldn’t you?  You’d say “Hey! There goes beetle” or “Wow!  What great hair Beetle has” Or some such similar thing.
Now let’s take things a little further.  I will pose you a [...]

I got some more awards.
This lovely award is from Shinade @ The Painted Veil and is one that she designed herself.  Thank you very much Shinade for my ‘You are Simply The Best’ award.

Last week I was given the ‘Superior Scribbler Award’ by Lady Banana.  Thank you M’Lady, it’s much appreciated.

I also got the ‘Power [...]

Part 3 (final)
It wasn’t very long before our marriage finally ended.  There appeared to be no reason for this.  We didn’t argue,  and had no problems.  Money was plentiful.    There was nothing obvious to cause it to happen.  It just slowly ended.  Jim moved out and I was left with the other two, who very [...]

Part 2
Somehow we managed to clean the flat up and make is habitable.  Once we got our furniture in, it looked OK, though not as nice as our first flat.  We had made all our furniture to fit our previous flat and [...]

This is an update for those of you that live in the US and may be interested in alternative gifts.  Brad of ‘The Sound of a Soft Breath’ very kindly left a link to the same sort of ‘World Vision’ scheme that’s running in the US.
Thank you so much Brad

With Christmas coming very soon, I thought that I would post about this great ‘World Vision Gifts’ idea.
Instead of receiving lots of gifts that you don’t really want or need.  Gifts that will probably end up in the back of a drawer or cupboard until next year, when you can pass them on to other [...]

Mo and I have been following the X Factor (UK) this year again, as there are a few brilliant singers in the ‘over twenties’.  This week was Mariah Carey week, and she was present, and worked with all the singers.
There is just no understanding the way the public vote.  There is a chap who, although [...]

Penalty charge update
Having received that stupid Penalty Charge the other day, I emailed the appropriate department, stating what idiots they were querying it. This was their reply.
*The Penalty Charge Notice was issued because the Civil Enforcement Officer was unable to read the details on your Disabled Persons Blue Badge because it was not [...]
