A day off.

A day off.

Hi there! Sunny Saturday here! I’ve spent the morning tidying and cleaning the place; have thoroughly enjoyed it, which is rarely the case!  Have paid a few bills and bought a nice gift, which is sure to give somebody special a lift… Sometimes something as basic as making the bed  calms down the chaos that builds in my head.  I chase round with work for weeks on the spin, so much so that I’m rarely in. So to hang out the laundry…

Every now and then my mind would wander,  and I would do the cheque signing one  instead of the friendly…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Feeling a bit second hand today, after all the excitement of our One Day Special Set of Shows on HOCHANDA yesterday, which sold out, don’t you know! Right at the very end of play! It was such fun working with Charlie the presenter  in that last hour; he really is a hoot. And when he said he used to be really good at darts at school, I almost broke down, because I thought he said…

Hi there! Nice of you to drop in. I’ve been packing things ready for TV tomorrow.  Checking, double-checking. Honestly, I waste so much time going over stuff, to be sure to be sure.  But then again, that means I can relax more  on a 2 hour live tv show, safe in the knowledge that I’ve got at least 2 of everything I need,  and at least 1 of loads I don’t need.  Saturday’s Blog a new technique, right? Well, now…
