From the monthly archives:
This weekend we had the opportunity to spend a couple of nights away. We were very kindly invited to stay at a six hundred year old cottage (belonging to my friend’s father), far from the madding crowd, out in deepest Suffolk. Along with two of my oldest friends (S & J) and their husbands (J [...]

Her posts are always beautifully written and the photographs she takes are of a standard I can only aspire to.

Friday already? That week flew by! Here you are again, wondering who you might find awaiting your verdict. Last week saw the very swoonsome Hugh Jackman receiving a resoundingly positive reception. Apparently not only is he declared (mostly) hot by you, but he’s also by many accounts a very lovely intelligent man. Always a bonus! [...]

The week is almost at an end and what better cherry on the cake than a little bit of ‘Hot or not?’. Last week the delectable Gerard Butler was most definitely hot hot hot! He may even be a pretender to King Simon Baker’s throne. I’m totally torn. Maybe they could job share? This week’s [...]

Blog Housekeeping – Update
by Insomniac Mummy on December 10, 2009
Since I told you I’d installed IntenseDebate, oh all of 7 hours ago I’ve had nothing but trouble! The comment count was missing, the comments themselves were split on two separate URL’s depending on whether you accessed via Feedburner or directly, hell, it was even timing me out. A quick bit of Googling seems to [...]
