Marriage-It’s Not All That!
Don’t get me wrong. My wedding day was a dream come true. I dreamed of it for years. I sacrificed for it. I worked for it and as I looked into my husband’s eyes and promised to love and respect him for the rest of my life I thought I would burst for joy. We were… Continue reading Marriage-It’s Not All That!
Pigeons!
Imagine you’re taking a stroll in your favourite park. It’s a lovely summer’s day (yes it finally arrived, even in the UK!) and the heat is perfectly complimented by a cooling breeze that caresses your face and shoulders.

The Sure Investment
Growing up I often wondered why I didn’t have a father, like many of my school friends. My father killed himself when I was a baby, so I never got to meet him.
