My brother is celebrating a big birthday this weekend and I wanted to buy him something special to mark the occasion. He’s a big Foo Fighters fan and fancies himself as an always ready substitute member (ready, willing and able and available at a minutes notice should the band ever need him!). So […]
Being a non-smoker for a number of years now, I tend to prefer restaurants that are non-smoking. But a rather important client has extended a lunch invitation to us this weekend, in a cigar bar. I’ve never been to one and I’m assured that they’re very comfortable, airy and serve delightful food. However […]
When I was in high school I played basketball and we were pretty good. I’d forgotten how good we were until I recently visited my old high school again to give a talk to some of the students as part of a careers seminar the school was holding. On the way to the […]
When I was younger I always dreamed of being in a band – who didn’t right? Well my dream came true for a brief moment recently when I got to act out my childhood fantasy. There was a fundraiser for one of our clients recently and as part of the fundraiser, a charity auction […]
Have you ever been in a store and dropped your wallet without it being closed properly and all your coins go rolling around everywhere? Well I witnessed this first hand today.

You’re supposed to learn from your mistakes right? So how come I don’t?! Not for the first time, I sat on my Sunglassesthis morning and broke them. And it couldn’t have happened on a sunnier more glarey morning driving to work!! Try as I might, I couldn’t wear my damaged sunnies even when […]
The saying that you pay for what you get really does ring true when it comes to clothing I find. And when it comes to uniforms, you really can’t go wrong with cherokee workwear. Good value, great quality garments in easy care fabrics and a good diverse range. My brother’s birthday is […]
As it’s the New Year, I’m trying to get organised – part of my new year, new me policy. So far, so good! The first thing that needs reorganising is my desk – cables everywhere and no idea which cable is for what. So, I bought some wire covers to organise and group my […]
We had our office Christmas party last weekend and we did Secret Santa. I ended up buying for a colleague that I didn’t really know but whoever bought for me must have known that I recently took up yoga because I got a really cool present – I got a theraband set! I was […]
My sister is in for a treat this Christmas. Her husband has been looking at diamond eternity band and is having one specially made for her. She’s going to love it! They had their 4th child earlier this year and that’s their family tree done and dusted for them. She’d always […]
