The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon I read this some years ago when I was still in secondary school and I remember loving it. When I saw it on sale during my last visit to a local boot fair, I bought it without hesitation. It only cost me 20p. I like to reread good books, especially when I...

Mirror mirror on the wall

  I bought a mirror. It's hard to tell , but it is rather big and I struggled to carry it from the shop to my flat, which is not far at all. I absolutely love it, good value for money and I finally can use my fairy lights.    I bought a mirror. It's hard to tell , but it is rather...

Purchases

A small,French, kitsch bag from Claire's. I will be using to store all the cables and chargers that usually tangle in my work bag.  A sleep mask, also from Claire's. I find sleeping with it much easier, not just for darkness, but the pressure on the eyes somehow helps it too.  Bought some sticky notes at Paperchase. I absolutely love Paperchase. I could...

I recently reactivated my account and posted my first postcards. While I wait for my postcards, I will share with you some postcards I received when I was...

My Sunday

My Sunday morning started very early. I got up before 6 o'clock to go to boot fair. This is the first time I went to sell rather than to buy things. I'm not going to lie, I hate getting up, especially because it's only a weekend when I can sleep in thanks to a full time job, however it was quite fun day....

Some Observations on Germans

I do like to share my observations about life in UK, since I often go to Germany I thought I'd share some of my observations  Germans do not queue. I know most of European countries are like that, but Germans as well? It took me by surprise, perfect queuing would go so well with other characteristics of a stereotypical German.   They love...

We went to the indoor swimming pool with my parents and...
