If you live in England or Wales you can look up local eateries here and see how they did when they had a food safety inspection.  I was appalled by the ratings for some of the places ne… Read More

G is much better and went back to work for a few hours last week and is due to be back full time this week – although we’ll see how that goes.  We are eating an anti-inflamm… Read More

G had an infection last week that looked a bit like a red somewhat angry patch of skin (nowhere intimate I might add!).  Antibiotics were prescribed (twelve per day) and painkillers wer… Read More

I am working really odd hours for the next few months and as part of that it means that I will be working a lot of weekends, but with days off during the week.  My concern is that when… Read More

I like the City Dasboard that has been compiled by UCL.  The London version of it is probably the most interesting.  Perhaps I am biased because that is where I live, but it also h… Read More

I am loving the Paralympics.  Despite my previous comments about Channel 4's coverage, it has actually improved a lot and is now much more enjoyable.  We went to the Paralympics on… Read More

Before the Olympics started, whilst I was fairly positive about it, I was not that enthusiastic about it – two weeks of sport was not my ideal. Two weeks on, my view is rather changed… Read More

So the Paralympics have begun.  I have to say that so far I am not very impressed with the Channel 4 coverage.  They spend so much time talking in the studio that they aren't showi… Read More

We went to Scotland with my sister and nephew for a week over Easter. We stayed in a really nice cottage in the Scottish Borders, which was on a sheep farm. We were woken up one day by she… Read More
