Another year for my boy, another trip up London for our favourite outing, supper then a show. The show was ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ – done as a musical. And very good it was too. If you love folk/Irish/Cornish type music you’ll love this. (Even if the music was a tiny bit too […]
A funny old week… And sneaky peeks!
Frogspawn. Loads of it! LOL! When lollipop and her family came down at the weekend, we took a trip around the grounds at my flats and low and behold they pointed out something I might not have known – all of this “grey stuff“ is frogspawn! There’ll be lots of little frogs there if the […]
Happy Birthday Caitlynne!! And sneaky peeks…
Had a lovely time with my fab friend down in Devon, she is the big 6-0 next week. Went to lunch, and I had the most delicious omelette in Okehampton. Then chats, then the movie, (Bridget Jones – see below!) Then giving her a lovely present which included her favourite flower. All I can say […]
Winging it to Wales for Jasper’s third birthday! And sneaky peeks
The main thing I did this week was have a flying visit down to Wales for Jasper’s 3rd birthday and what a lovely time we had! Yes, it was only quick but so worthwhile. He is a little star! Such good company and such funny turns of phrase. He’s going through a dinosaur phase so […]
Waschies Turbans – it’s a sell-out. Plus… GrapeGate! And sneaky peeks
Had a fun show mid week this week when the Waschies brand returned, this time with a super today’s special value set of four hair turbans! I couldn’t believe how absorbent they were, truly. So amazed, I bought another four. I thought Lauren could do with those for her and Phoebe’s hair, and also for […]
The Bedding Bunch! Travels with Mum. And your sneak peeks!
How lovely to see Susie Adams, our old mate from Northern Nights bedding range years ago, return to our screens last weekend! Took this fun picture with all of the bedding girls, behind the scenes in the guest lounge, during a live shift; such lovely people to work with and we had a great time […]
Thel-Mum and Louise! Our trip away together to Devon and Wales!
Did a rare thing this week, something I have not done since 2014 when I went on a cruise holiday with just Mum and me – she came with me to Devon and then onto Wales, just us for nearly a week! Mum was extremely helpful in the kitchen (mostly! See below! 🤪). And great […]
Sneaky stuff behind the scenes at QVC! And seven days ahead!
So funny! Last week Lorna, my lovely friend QVC and guest presenter, grabbed me, picked up two plastic cups and two forks and said come with me quick! She raised me into the studio and low and behold there were some dishes that had just been finished with, by the superb cook and ninja guest, […]
Guess what happened to me? And 7 days’ sneaky peeks!
Yes, it was freezing, yes I went out to grit the driveways and then realised that my mac was no longer waterproof! Very wet and very cold, when I got back in the lift to go up to the flat! But it was a good job well done as no sliding bits for people or […]
