Oops now I feel my skin lift, go […]
I am really back this time. I am now a “travelling vegan” learning how and where to eat as I go. I have been off on my travels since soon after my mother died, after her long battle with Alzheimers and left me some money. I decided to spend it in the way she would […]

I used to think that salad was a punishment food! Cabbage tended to […]

Why canal boat tales? Last week I purchased a secondhand canal boat. It is moored on the River Thames and will be there over the winter. It is going to be my retreat from all my caring duties. For those of you who do not know, I currently am responsible for 3 teams of carers […]
Rubbing shoulders with death? Why on earth am I writing about this? Do I hear you say “wacky”? 🙂 Yup, maybe, but bear with me and maybe, just maybe, I can convince you that a quick shoulder rub occasionally will make you feel more alive than ever before. Please read on and decide for yourself…
