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…

Yet Another Garden Update
I originally wrote this post for the Lismaine Cottage blog, but it has a gadgety vibe, so I’ll cover it here as well. It’s not lazy, I’m merely doing my part for the environment…recycling. Well, with a little bit of a rewrite, in a more personalised style. I tend to keep my sense of humour…

B&B for Beginners
As always, it seems as though the more free time I have, the less I actually do. I haven’t really written anything in a while. All of my creative energy has been drained and funneled into writing website descriptions and listings on an endless variety of online directories. Consequently, I fear for the life of…

B&Bs and Static City
Lismaine Cottage Finals were a few months ago, and results have come and gone. Have I had even more time than ever before? Nope. I keep finding things to do. We’re in the process of opening a bed and breakfast in my family home in Magheralin, and I have been handling the technical and legal…
