Here's what's up
Insert Fanfare here………….. We get all our information off facebook 🙂 . But she has returned, for an undisclosed amount of time. It’s great to have the opportunity to live between countries when you’re young. It gives you a chance to really decide where you want to be. I wish I’d had that opportunity as a 23 year old. At …
As I sit here slurping my coffee and writing this through bleary eyes, I wonder ‘what next’. It’s Monday, that’s bad enough, with the collective weight of the world on her shoulders it’s no wonder Monday serves us up a barrel of shit to wade through. To add insult to injury Sunday night was a pure arsehole. There’s no other …
Shocked? Sorry 🙂 Here’s what happened: I’ve already had ‘The talk’ with Miss Gremlin, she’s got those facts straight, well straight enough for a 9 yo;  yeah maybe for a 20 yo, whatever.
