I’m sitting at my desk, planning my marriage with all the security in the world that being a British citizen gives me in 2013 and I’m appalled. Not because there is still inequality in the world, nor that life is sometimes unfair, but more importantly because I’m going to have to give up my favourite…

Its Pride Jim, but not as we know it….
Its a week till our Brighton Pride celebrations start and Im feeling a bag of mixed emotions. It will be the first time weve been in a few years, and the first time since they started charging to get in, AND it looks like its going to be a very different event to the fun,…
For Annie.

This is not a blog about diabetes. Or at least, the whole of it is not. It has to be said though that, as someone newly diagnosed, it’s something I’m bound to beat to death. But really, the goal (“goal” makes it sound so lofty) of…
Another day, another Doughnut!!
Life isn’t easy being Diabetic!! Not only do I have to take medication for the rest of my life but in addition I cant join in with the office fun that is ‘bring a treat to work’ day!! Today is a case in point….not one but TWO birthdays both involving cakes, sweeties and even a…
If I see another Burger!!!!
I’m making meatballs!! Ok, it’s Hot, it’s Sunny, and we bought the gas BBQ 2 years ago with the sole aim of evening BBQs AND we have used it more this week, then we did in 2011 and 12 combined BUT I don’t know how many ways I can make burned food taste different. So…
This week Ive been mostly trying Volleyball…
Well I say trying…I organised our first team night out and I did stand in the sand, but mostly I cheered, I drank, I sat with the picnic and I swore at children!! Whilst that last bit is true, and I am ashamed that I did it, in context I didn’t see them there and…
Today’s the day….I asked him to Marry Me!!
What a difference a few years makes!! When I asked the Dazzler to “marry” me the first time round, we were at Brighton Pride and drank champagne and ate strawberries in the park the whole day to celebrate. We didn’t live here then, but were staying in a posh hotel on the seafront and had…
A Monday evening celebration…
It’s a Monday for gods sake!!! And I cut a particularly lonesome figure as I sit in the sun, in the beer garden of my local – Charles St in Brighton for those of you interested – but you cannot wipe the smile off my face!! True, hubby is away, I’m dog sitting alone, and…
Brighton BBQ day!!
We Brits have not been lucky in the sun department over the last 100 or so years. So when we get some great weather it’s important to celebrate!! We’ve had over a week of gorgeous weather so we decided to get a couple of friends round and have cocktails and a BBQ. What could be…
Bean Chili – Its not just for Veggies!!
I’m feeling the need of something comforting yet healthy this week as work has been all out. So I thought this weekend I would dedicate to making something I haven’t made for a couple of years but I used to LOVE – My Bean Goo – or bean chili to the uninitiated!! It’s a pretty…
