Thank The Rolling Stones for today's title.I really like that song. In fact, I am enjoying 'Hackney Diamonds'. I did have reservations but I'm pleased I hopped into Apple Music and bought it the other week. I'll put the album in via Spotify at the end of this post. I opened the "Scattered on Cloth" … Continue reading Bite my head off.

When the germs get you …
Yesterday I drank so many cups of tea I was beginning to feel waterlogged. This morning I'm on my second pot of plunger coffee because I cannot face anymore tea. It's very rare for me to drink this much coffee. Good indication that the germs Freda brought into the house have won. I shall keep … Continue reading When the germs get you …

I'm not ready for August. Wasn't it just yesterday that it was March? Wasn't it?Where has the time gone?Why is it moving so fast?I need to let that go. It's book launch event week. It is EVENT WEEK. I am far too calm this morning for day two of launch week. I managed to wrestle … Continue reading August! Already!
Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!
I'm sure you all missed me. 🙂 Or not. Got home this afternoon. There was joy because the shuttle driver was the same lovely driver who took me to the airport on Saturday. We had a good laugh at various idiots in cars (he's not fond of most drivers) and then we had wee chat … Continue reading Been away for a wee bit but I’m back!

I don't know exactly what his prompt was and ChatGPT consistently wants to say my Byte Series is about hackers … Continue reading The things my kids do:
July 12th 2023
Today was very much a day like every other until my phone buzzed. Now it is a day we won't forget. It's added to the dates we keep track of without even knowing we keep track of them. The goodbyes that happen. The ends or are they beginnings?Along time ago (longer than we care to … Continue reading July 12th 2023
Hi Ho Silver Lining.
You know that thing when someone's behaviour tweaks your gut? You give them the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe it's an off day. Fairs fair, we all have them. Then you realise it wasn't a bad day, it was every time you saw them. What I do is to sit with it. Happened to … Continue reading Hi Ho Silver Lining.
Faraway Eyes
Another day has rolled around. Probably a good thing that they keep doing that. 🙂 This morning I tweaked a scene in [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] because I have time before my lovely editor gets into the book. So I added something that was needed and sent off an updated version. I've started on [Foxtrot Mike … Continue reading Faraway Eyes
Gotta Have A Reason
