DO YOU BELEIVE IN GHOSTS ?…… Hall and Childs Limited Haunting Julia By Alan Ayckbourn Directed by Andrew Hall Starring Christopher Timothy, Richard O’Callaghan and Dominic Hecht They called her ‘Little Miss Mozart’. Julia was a musical prodigy. At eight she was writing symphonies, by nineteen the world was at her feet, until she was found dead in a pool of blood. Twelve years have passed and her father, Joe, has never stopped asking, why? Was it really suicide? Or was someone else with her that fateful night? Strange sounds have begun to pierce the silence of the shrine Joe has built to his … Read More »
For a week now I have been trialing Raiyia Body Treatment Mask with the promise I will uncover a divine decollete. And reader, I think it might just be happening… The decollete is one of those areas I, and I suspect many of you, tend to neglect. When it comes to my face I’m scrupulous at moisturising and always using a high spf foundation or tinted moisturiser, but apart from a general all over body lotion after my shower, I don’t give my chest area the attention it deserves. When you think about it, along with your face and your hands, the decollete is the one … Read More »
I have a dog who’s main aim in life is to find the biggest amount of foxes poo and roll in it… if you have not smelt foxes poo it is without doubt the worse smell in the world! She and the smell move from room to room making us all gag… then there is the upset tummy thing going on with her when she has managed to throw down her throat some sort of manky findings on our walks! I also have three darling cats, they love to leave me presents… rotting bird remains more than once and very often a gall bladder and … Read More »
Neither Marigold or I are big fans of running… let it be said that if we had to run for a bus, well it’s me really, I’d NEVER make! But we are both big fans of Aromatherapy Associates products. Going to the Gym…nope… I avoid the running, rowing and bike machines, I love to walk in the sun, by the water, through the woods and down country lanes… but running ahhh ahhh… but if I did indulge this is what I’d have to hand The Aromatherapy Associates De-Stress Muscle collection. De-Stress Muscle Bath & Shower Oil(55ml, £37) is a welcome relief for tired, heavy limbs after … Read More »

I read an article yesterday on GREEN LIVING (thanks to Anna Shepard) it got me thinking…. one of the points was about recycling your unwanted gifts. DO YOU OR DON’T YOU? THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING… I have a draw with unwanted gifts, THERE, I HAVE SAID IT, it is not a huge draw and it is not full, but it does contain gifts, ones that are either so NOT ME, or I already have, thinking mainly books here, or just have too many simular items already… they are the creme da la creme of gifts…. I have great mates and family…. The chances … Read More »
For me, the measure of a good book is one you think has been written for you. That feeling of sinking inside the pages that become your home, and breathing every heroine’s word can be quite intoxicating. Aside from comforting myself with many an Agatha Christie when growing up and regarding myself as a master sleuth, my first real relationship with a book was courtesy of Thomas Hardy. Tess of the d’Urbevilles, tragic as she was, was me. Quite how or why I should want to identify with such a tragic figure remains a mystery – it was probably all on account of Angel Clare. I put it down … Read More »
One of the most exciting things in the world for me is a book, the smell, the feel, and the adventure you start when you turn the first page. I have had a love affair with books all my life, in bad days they become a refuge, a form of total escape and on good days an indulgent way to relax away from the hassle of real life. I thought as this week is all about the book I’d share a few of my favorites with you. When I was at school I was obsessed with Titus Groan and Titus Alone, Mervyn Peake oh … Read More »
