As the heading would suggest it’t that time of the year when I can talk about Christmas and not get the eye rolls or the bah humbug scenario (well in most cases). Christmas is that time of year when we get nostalgic and really feel the need to share time with family and friends and […]
Hi all – it’s nearing that time of year when I have to slow down due being one of Santa’s Little Helpers so not a lot is happening with the website. I do have loads of material to sort and load but it takes so much time and I am suffering really badly with arthritis […]
Hands up I just did not have the time to complete Part II but I will just so it is a complete record. Obviously Christmas is our next priority. Am sure Christine Brooks will have that newsletter ready for the beginning of December !!!!!!! (Hint Hint). Not sure I will have time to do a […]
Well here we are the first part of the Halloween special is here. It has turned into an epic as so many tales were found as a trawled the internet and books I have access too. Some entries were forwarded by our website users. I am not suggesting for one minute that anything in the […]

We did announce that we would re-launch the newsletter at the end of September but Christine has decided that an end of November relaunch is better for us as it will include Christmas […]
