….for the new Oakleaf Circle site to become active. It’s been a week since I got the email from 34sp.com that the site was ‘live’, but it isn’t! I’ve sent them an email, yesterday, and I’ve only had an automated reply so far. We went shopping in Ayr today – I bought myself a mobile […]

…the new Oakleaf Circle site, I mean. The site’s still not active . When they said it would take up to 72 hours to activate, I suppose they didn’t include weekends. Anyway, I’ve temporarily uploaded the old site to here – you should be able to get to it at this link. The search engines […]
… for a friend of mine. Her name is Sara Willow, she is a poet and has just bought out her first poetry collection. It’s called Shape To Shape. IMO, she is a brilliant poet and everyone should read her stuff.. This is one of hers: WHAT THE POOL SAID What the pool said: Climb […]
The new Oakleaf Circle site is almost live! I’ve just got notification from 34sp.com. Brilliantly fast work, as I only sent the cheque off yesterday! I’d like to put the site up right away, but I have the Elfin Diaries site to put up – supposed to get it finished today, but there have been […]

Dear God, I wish to put in a complaint and I understand that you are the right department. My complaint is simple – I have been given the wrong body! As You well know, I was due for some R&R (having had a couple of rather stressful lifetimes), so before this latest rebirth, I specifically […]
It was one of those meandering late-night conversations. Me: “It’s Monday tomorrow…” B: “Yes, another Monday…” Me: “Seen too many of those….” But how many? I suddenly wondered. Grabbing a scrap of paper and my trusty pen, I started working it out. I’m 55 years old; 55 times 364 is 20020 days; 55 divided by […]
That phrase was obviously thought up by somebody who had never experienced poverty. Yes, looked at logically and in isolation, it’s perfectly correct: Happiness is an intangible state and not a purchasable commodity. However, it’s a phrase that’s too often abused and misused. Too many people interpret it as “Money is incompatible with happiness”, which […]
So off I went this morning to do my civic duty. My intention had been to walk there and back, to get some much-needed excercise. But B was parcelling up some Elfin Diary stuff that was due to be sent out today, had run out of parcel tape and was convinced that the parcels firm […]
