Continue reading →: Keep battling on
As mentioned on my home page, I have osteoarthritis in both hips, this makes walking extremely hard, which can be quite stressful, especially as I did a lot of it for my job and also for pleasure. I sometimes get very anxious when I’m struggling to put one foot in…

Before I start, lets deal with the elephant in the room, yes, that’s me in the pic, albeit 25 years ago when I was a bit closer to being the fittie I’m striving for now. You might also be thinking why did I get my arse out dressed as a…

The word inspirational is often overused, but sometimes, it’s the only way to describe a person. I’m proud to call the lady I’m writing about a friend and I know she’ll be embarrassed, but I’m afraid she’s going to have to get used to people praising her. In 2017 Dee…

I consider myself an authority on surviving the 1970’s, everyone thinks their childhood was the best, but as in highlander, “there can be only one” and anyone that lived through this decade, knows it was them. Just like living in Australia, the dangers were many and not everyone made it,…

Apparently blog writing or in fact any sort of creative writing is now a thing of the past and should be put in the same category as the dinosaurs. Since the rise of AI, useless, lazy, thick people can now have a 1000 words on any subject, written down on…
