Today we're back on another book review. This time The Good Liar by Nicholas Searle. I'll be honest, this is my least favourite of the books I have reviewed so far. Check out the CCBC page of Catherine's Corner to catch up on all the previous posts. The Good Liar was made into a film …
I've been to the cinema twice so far this year. I very rarely go to the cinema - the last time was before we decided to even hold a referendum on Brexit, let alone go down that rabbit hole. My two recent visits have reminded me why I rarely go. People are obviously a factor! …
Last year I moaned about supermarket shopping. Read it here; that was a time when titles seemed more exciting too. Today, I bring good news. This is a rare post, so enjoy it while you can! I've discovered the wonder of scan as you shop. I think it is safe to say this is my …
I hate New Year. OK, so the new year has started and I'm starting off with another moaning post. The solar system was great enough to tell us that we have day and night, and also a year. What it didn't tell us is when the new year starts. Day and night are good enough …
Lol no. It might have been a Monday, but meat was eaten. Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without turkey, sausage meat stuffing, pigs in blankets - or in my case naked pigs as I don't like bacon. It's not been the best kept secret that Christmas falls on a Monday this year, so I've had a …
I've started to notice a growing Christmas trend, the two tree family. People have more than one Christmas tree in their house. Why? Do you expect Father Christmas to leave presents under both trees? Do you have the one in the window really well decorated to impress the neighbours but a grim one in your …

This week my blog turns one. I’m not sure whether this is a birthday or an anniversary, but either way, I think some sort of cake should be made. This is also my 52nd post, so pretty spot on for publishing a post a week. For today’s post, I’m going to pull out some facts …
Last week I spent a few nights staying in hotels as I needed to travel for work. This resulted in walking to the adjacent restaurant and requesting a table for one. This has a small perk, as I don't have any physical human contact I managed to reach out to friends who had been somewhat …
I'd like to thank a fellow train passenger for affecting my journey enough to prompt to my write today's post. I was recently on a train mid-morning. Boarded at 9.45 scheduled arrival was 12 noon. To me, this would suggest breakfast has been consumed and dinner can be expected after arrival, but oh no, …
