I enjoy meme's both from a reading-other-people's answers and a what-would-I-say view point. Recently one popped into my email inbox from Donna at MummyCentral and it looked like it might be fun to join in with. No obligation for anyone else to join in,... Read more
My email got hacked overnight and since 4am this morning I've been receiving messages of non-delivery - the first indication I'd been hacked. I never click on dodgy-looking links in DMs or emails, a regular amount of email goes to "Junk" and "Junk" it... Read more
Sometimes an article is published that you read and think "did anyone actually research this properly?" and "oh dear, this really isn't going to help". Yesterday was such a time. An article published by BBC Health Children may "outgrow" Autism. (Click... Read more
Or tweet, text, blog, connect on Facebook ... The death of Jacintha Saldanha was a shocking end to a "prank", even more so was the way some elements of social media reacted to the news. "It's only a mistake at work" said one tweet. Not many people can... Read more

I had a little jaunt into town today, forgetting it was....*drumroll please* new iPhone release day so there were hundreds of people queuing outside the Apple store. They're probably still there now. At least there is a Starbucks kiosk nearby for refreshments,... Read more
I was always told this from an early age...literally had it drummed into me. I was born six weeks premature, which would be a worry these days, let alone then. A child born on the same day as me, with a similar prematurity, was found to be brain-damaged.... Read more
Grrr, this book causes squabbles amongst T and D: It shouldn't do, but it does. T likes to take it with him when we go out, D will see it, want to read it and that's when the squabbling starts. At home, she'll ask if she can start reading it, he'll begrudging... Read more
