Gig Review: Grace & Romeo

GIG NUMBER 1 this weekend was on Friday night at the Dogstar in Brixton. We were there to see a band called Patchwork Grace, but, unbeknownst to us, they were one of 5 bands playing that night. The thought of sitting (well, standing) through the 3 prior acts was not a happy one, but, loving […]

I had just bought my first flat.  I’d always sworn I’d never live in a ground floor flat, but I absolutely fell in love with this one, and purchased it despite my concerns about safety on the ground floor.  So, when I need to get some work done in my new home, I was already […]

Last of the Summer Whine

They’re bagging up the leaves in my road.  Hurrah! I cry.  Bring on the autumn:  a light chill in the air, the soil moist from the day’s downpour, nights drawing in, curtains closed by 7.30, fire crackling in the grate, a hearty casserole simmering on the hob… candles glowing, easygoing, toe-to-toe-ing as we cuddle on […]
