When in conversation, people say "that's a great question" - I used to wonder in my head "really". Different ways people make a flow in the talking going.

Tea Rooms
What is it about a tea room? They bring warmth. Nobody is in a hurry. That much-needed tea with a small snack presented in the very best way. When you make time for a tea room, you are sure to go in good company or even your own company. Solace is the word I find … Continue reading Tea Rooms
Happy Anniversary to writing

I don't loose weight easy so even if I can maintain over Christmas and New Years celebrations, I will be glad. Distraction works for me. We all … Continue reading Festive mood.
Being harsh
