This post is just what the title says: to take my mind off things – one of my lovely grandmas is very poorly in hospital, and I thought spending time on the computer might stop me worrying… Apologies for any typos, as my mind really isn’t on the job in hand! I’ve been browsing various… Read more »

Hello! No gallivanting for me this weekend – I have dedicatedly spent this afternoon getting the Blog up-to-date on my website. So, from now on, posts will be posted at blog.com and then transferred to my own site(always good to have a back up).

I’m having one of those days which go from bad to good to odd in succession (nothing major just a bit of an uppy-downy day, mood-wise). I haven’t mentioned this to many people, but I’ve been doing a counselling course (thinking that if I ever get back to my old self, it might be a… Read more »

Well, the interview didn’t go to plan, did it? I was there early, but the show was running late – this gave me ample time to get nervous and need the loo (that might be too much information, but I said I was going to be honest with this blog)! The interviewer was on outside… Read more »
