Well it has rained all day!!! It has been lovely. I may be too British for my own good, but there is something soothing about the sound of proper rain, putting on a big jumper and socks and feeling cozy.

Day 21: A walk through Chelsea
No post yesterday as I was not feeling too great, not sure what it was, maybe just feeling down. Heyho! Much better today. I started the day with my morning walk and decided to take a different route. Mix it up a little bit. Back in the old days when I used to work, and … Continue reading Day 21: A walk through Chelsea
Day 15: cleaning madness
Today has been about cleaning. I thought it would be a good idea to clean the oven... why, would I think that. Anyway once I had started I was committed. It’s cleaner than it was so happy with that. I then moved on to the kitchen as a whole, it was time for a proper … Continue reading Day 15: cleaning madness

Today started with a very cold and blustery walk along the river, the correct weather for a bank holiday. None of this hot sunny … Continue reading Day 12: bank holiday lounging
An alternative way to shop
The Coronavirus pandemic has highlighted to people that you cannot always rely on the big supermarkets. Three weeks ago as we were heading for lock- down people went into stock piling mode, even though the powers that be said it was not necessary. People panicked. It was horrid. We went into Asda on a Saturday … Continue reading An alternative way to shop
There is nothing Odd about Oddbox
I cannot remember how I came across Oddbox but I am glad I did. In a world where food waste is reaching shocking amounts, I am a firm supporter of any company or person who is trying to tackle it. I hate waste. I hate throwing food away unnecessarily. I am that person that ignores the … Continue reading There is nothing Odd about Oddbox
Afternoon Tea at the Corinthia Hotel
It's fair to say that over my 30 something years I have eaten many an afternoon tea. I have enjoyed them around London, around the country and even overseas. There is something delightfully enjoyable about tiny sandwiches and cakes. I remember being a teenager and afternoon tea was a treat, an indulgence. It was a … Continue reading Afternoon Tea at the Corinthia Hotel
