The Blue Zones of Happiness

Have you thought recently of what makes you Happy? Remember studying about Maslow’s Pyramid – during the virus think we have moved to the bottom of this. – doing what we need to keep us alive and surviving. Just off the top of my head – absence of red bills would make me happier than […]

Bee whisperer

Strange day rescuing many many bumble bees that kept appearing inside our house and guiding them out the window, as soon as one had left – another one appeared, not sure where they came from, maybe a nest in our attic and they found a way out into the main part of the house. Terrified […]

Check source of news in run up to an Election

Found these quotes on the Content Factory – many sites like this one – its about “Delivering Results and ROI” (Return on Investment) “Spin doctors are: “professional political strategists, able on behalf of their clients to manipulate the media – planting a story here, a rumour there, a tip-off somewhere else – so that any […]

Sound

Wrote this little while ago. We’re just observing, things will get better but maybe not strait away. Not sure if its sound or smell first notice when wake up. My small black cat, usually leaping up and down waiting for food. Sometimes very early he paws the window to wake me up then walks in […]

Sometimes wonder

Few years ago drove from Sussex to other end of Switzerland (and up a mountain) – didn’t reallize how high the place was we were staying at. Beautiful but terrifying. Love to travel. Flying by plane, not impossible but not easy. Understand implications of travelling. On the way, spent one night camping in the east […]

Well done England!

Oil delivery mans lament

Had an interesting conversaton with our oil delivery man about his feelings on his treatment by angry drivers when he stops his tanker to deliver oil to places like ours in the country. He said ours was just about ok but other places on even smaller roads with nowhere for him to pull off the […]

Albie Sachs

One of those nights that i couldn’t sleep, watched an interview with Albie Sachs, the sort of person who gets things done quietly to try and make the world a better place – but doesn’t make a big deal of it. Despite everything that has happened to him, he seems a very positive sort […]

John O’Groats – The World according to Dina

Can you imagine our mood? Dina reads aloud at the breakfast table with haggis and porridge (without whisky today) that John O’Groats is an awful place, grey and ugly. Better make a detour except one wants to take the ferry to the Orkneys like us. Other travelers agreed. Actually we already knew that Britain’s famous […]
