Gentlemen And Players
It's all going on at the moment. We've got Christmas preparations underway, the beloved is working like a demon, I want to paint the kitchen and littlest monkey has a birthday soon. I need to escape and travel is not an option. Instead, I used the tried...

The joy of quitting and other useful skills
Sunday Night Rubbish Movie
It is Sunday evening and it's been a long week. The monkeys came back from holiday rested, recharged and ready for Christmas. I've been working trying to get used to the four day week thing. My panic attacks have increased in frequency which is fantastic timing. The...

Blue Planet II
I am a late adopter of nature programmes. I watched them as a kid but never had a passion for them. Too much risk of peril, emotional trauma and creepy crawlies. No thank you. Then softened by Springwatch, Autumnwatch and Countryfile you end up watching...
Shelfie Issues
My name is Fizzy and I have a serious book habit. For the past few years I have been able to conceal this from my family by only reading on a Kindle but paper books are more enjoyable. You can't beat the sensation of reading a book, it's immersive. So I decided...
Share some Fizzy!
