The Unexpected Medium

If there were a biography about you, what would the title be? There’s a seismic sense of surprise when you discover, midway through a telephone call, that the people you considered to be dead, and to whom you were never introduced, can not only communicate with you but give you accurate information that can beContinueContinue reading “The Unexpected Medium”

Getting Old 🤣

What were your parents doing at your age? Seriously, they were living in South London having moved back from the coast. They were always a dichotomy, dad needed the sea, and freedom, mum wanted to be near family. She’d won the battle. They never had a let up of pressure, my dad’s health had startedContinueContinue reading “Getting Old 🤣”

Social Media

If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? I would like stronger controls around the use of social media. When I say strong think something that would make a fully grown elephant look weak. For too long these companies have got away with allowing violence and abuse ofContinueContinue reading “Social Media”

Stuff, Money, and Nonsense.

Comparing the life of a blogging friend from the Philippines, to my experience of life in the UK. Very different lives, both have positives, but one clearly wins on natural living and family connection.

The BIG Question

It’s modern and filled with light. It’s on top of a hill with a fabulous view. It has eco heating and lighting and is self-sustaining. There is a balcony from the living room on the first floor.

Sit Down Before I Fall Down

You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do? I admit I find this hard to imagine. I dream of a few things I would love to happen, but I can’t begin to imagine what it would feel like. I’ve been far from unlucky in my life, but I’ve never hadContinueContinue reading “Sit Down Before I Fall Down”

Not That I Can Think Of

Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time? I’ve mainly stopped activities and hobbies for a reason. Usually not good. With the last one I was lied to, made to feel a fool, and then the people that I thought the world of slipped up, as people who lieContinueContinue reading “Not That I Can Think Of”

Pardon

What’s your favorite candy? None. I’m a chocolate eater. Plus my dentist would have a fit and he’s a nice guy. You see, not eating candy can potentially save lives, he could have a fit and fall on his drill. I’m so thoughtful I surprise myself sometimes. He’s not over fond of the chocolate either,ContinueContinue reading “Pardon”
