Going with a Bob Seger classic today. Let me tell you about the last few days. They've been nuts. I posted on Twitter a couple of days ago about Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. And so many people fondly remember Skippy. I've even heard from the son of Liza Goddard (Liza played Clarissa/Clancy in the series). … Continue reading Turn The Page …

Never Mind the Bollocks
Here's the Sex Pistols.You gotta be a certain age to remember that album. 🙂 The song I'll add at the end of this post is not from Never Mind the Bollocks it is from The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. So anyway, it's July 3rd, again. Keeps coming and doesn't bring much joy with it … Continue reading Never Mind the Bollocks
Lookin’ out my back door.
Quite the understatement really. I went down with the flu on Monday, which was and still is my week. Don't know why I expected to be better by now, clearly, I was optimistic. If only that worked. COVID was annoying but this is downright misery. Since getting COVID on May 5th, I have unwittingly opened … Continue reading Lookin’ out my back door.
How’s your weekend?
I'm currently listening to a 70's playlist on Spotify and drinking a Corona - with lemon because I'm out of limes. I've worked out what we're having for dinner. I fancied fish pie but Doris doesn't like it. Gosh, there's a surprise! 🙂 So we're having stuffed potatoes.Think about this ... I stuff potatoes with … Continue reading How’s your weekend?
The promised pictures:
Bet that tweaked a few weirdo's imaginations. In case you missed the Facebook post, Insta post, Twitter - many posts, here's the photos from yesterday's Mid Winter Secret Santa opening day at our place. FYI, not an IED. No one died. Also included is the playlist for the curious. Playlist first I think! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4IGegaZamH7fywxbVhHBD1?si=1b322cb37e4d4fc8 Bear … Continue reading The promised pictures:
Mid Winter Secret Santa
So, this happened:Yesterday I got a request via an elf. I needed to create a playlist from a list of songs given to me. Okay then. I did that. I was also told there are further instructions coming and that a special courier would deliver me a parcel last night. Intriguing!At about 7:30PM I grabbed … Continue reading Mid Winter Secret Santa
Playing catch up.
Not a game I enjoy but there ya go. 🙂 Last year was a funny old year for us. Not funny ha-ha either. There were times when it was stressful as fuck. Things slipped my mind and never made it to my diary (probably in the shop day book though, or not!) Pretty sure I … Continue reading Playing catch up.

I need to finish the fourth book first. 🙂 Precious little writing is happening at the moment which is fine. Currently in Writers … Continue reading Veronica Tracey
Trolls are alive and well …
Seems that all it takes to cop abuse is to be a Kiwi author and run a boosted post about a new release. Guess there are some very unhappy Australians out there who enjoy knocking Kiwis for no reason at all. Never mind the people who assume a boosted post for [Leave a message] is … Continue reading Trolls are alive and well …
What’s Up?
You may recognise the title as a song by '4 Non-Blondes', but it will always be 'three dumb blondes' for a couple of us. We drove up the South Island from Christchurch yesterday. Sunny all the way. Rather nice, or it would've been had it not been for the light flickering through trees and doing … Continue reading What’s Up?
