Isle Trotting
This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

Madeira (Escaping the Rain)
Trying to cope with the British weather? Why bother. Just leave already. That was our approach over half term. Why stick it out when you can leave for sunnier climes. I believe the upper classes refer to it as “over-wintering”, but five days away hardly a season makes. Geography lesson. You may think that Madeira…

Once More with Gusto (and Games)
This is the usual pivot-post. Ease you in with some games, teach you how to bake, and finish up with some light food criticism. Bon appétit It (still) Takes Two? Yes, we are still playing It Takes Two. It also takes enough time that we’ve got plenty more to play. I have been slightly side-tracked…

This one is even more plant-filled thanks to the new fern bed installed after we removed a smaller dead tree. We finished off the last installment with the…

Changing Gardens (Chronicle of the Dump)
This post is more of a visual, photo-heavy one documenting the in-progress transformation of the back of our garden. We un-paved paradise, and put up a playground… The area at the back of our garden had been used as a dump for generations of folks. Broken bottles. Wheelbarrows. Insulation. Broken bricks. Mobile phones. You name…

Busy Times in Horsham High
I have been flat out entertaining and getting the house ready for the impending heat pump installation, hence the delay in this one. Cheese…and cake? Part of entertaining is necessarily cooking (traditionally speaking, of course) and since I was making my oft requested Korean fried chicken, I wanted to do something a little different for…
