Killing two birds with one stone. Cleaning the kitchen and listening to the music on my ipod on shuffle. Not just because it's a long time since I listened to music but the not controlling of it was good. Accepting every tune for what it is to me, good or just ok. Made me realise how hard it is (for me) not to want to control what I'm exposed to and how hard it is to just go with the flow when you have become 'set' in your ways.


In the space of a week my son has read a book called 'The Power of Now', started realising things about himself and has now just purchased a book called something like 'How to become rich'.


Good lad.

By even more chance Honaloochie Boogie was a question on the Popmaster quiz on Radio 2 this morning.

    • All cats over 20 weeks old now have to be microchipped. Please have your cat microchiped if not already done. Your furry companion can then be returned if he/she becomes lost.
    • Off topic but I don't want to start another thread. I just had a Royal Mail delivery of a parcel. The postman ignored a large sign on the door asking people to ring the bell, and just rattled the letterbox, which luckily I heard. When I opened the door, I found the parcel on my doorstep in full view of passers by, and the postman getting into his van a few houses down. I then received an email informing me that my parcel had been delivered to my "safe place", an "enclosed porch". I don't have a safe place, and my porch is not enclosed, it is basically a doorstep to a terraced house . I know posties have a lot to do, but I find things like this really annoying.
    • Thanks, will try AJ Farmers and both Superdrug and B&M sell them. 
    • I finally tried Dai Due Fratelli last weekend. They were so incredibly friendly. Really good pizzas and a good wine selection. Really reasonably priced. I urge everyone to support it.
