At Home: Flood Defences & Flicker Books
I try to go for a walk every day….today I’m off to the Post Office with a detour to the sea first to explain some of the winter storm/flood defences……and the age of the sea wall. Later, back at home some fab books and a bit of chat before another wander in Swanage as I walk home the long way from the Library.

At Home: More cleaning & fixing
Today I am tackling mould (amongst other things)……using a simple household ingredient that costs pennies! I’m also hanging ‘pictures’ and explaining how to find your measurements without any maths – for those who are number phobic. Plus other bits and bobs.

At Home: Mending & Cleaning
It’s Sunday! A day off! I’m using my day off to catch up on jobs because the weather is too yucky for much beach time. Little jobs that have been bugging me for a while can get ticked off today….including removing rawl plugs ready to fill and smooth the plaster….

At Home: Health Checks & Big Waves (before Storm Ingrid).
It’s the start of a new year and high time to get some health stuffed checked out….including a slightly new eye prescription necessitating new glasses. Morning appointments give me the perfect excuse to visit the beaches to do some wave gazing during a Spring Tide (this was three days before Storm Ingrid hit…..the Ingrid waves were treble the size!). Plus some wonderful books and films (two of which were lovely Christmas gifts – thank you!).

At Home: Home purchases (bargains!)
Patience pays off! I’ve found some bargains to fill my needs and some that are just for fun. Plus…the results from my fire safety inspection and more purchases to tick their boxes….

At Home: Swear words? New eco deodorant plus a natter
My new ‘eco’ deodorant has arrived…a quick review plus price comparison. While portioning my latest batch cook I muse on words we use in the UK which might be considered swear words elsewhere. Plus a natter at the kitchen table. Pull up a chair and make yourself comfortable.

At Home: Kitchen Table Natter
Grab yourself a mug of hot chocolate and join me at the kitchen table for a natter. Some completely random stuff, some entertainment, a gorgeous bar of chocolate with art, fire safety stuff….and more.
