Internet or sex - what would you choose?

So it got me to thinking…how dependent am I on the internet?  Could I go without it for 2 weeks? (regardless of...


Smirking at the past

They spend an enormous amount of time and money on their window decorations. So much so,...

I like to think of myself as an organised person, not into fleeting trends, I like to plan my days and know exactly what I'm doing and when I'm doing it.  Last weekend is a prime example of this, it had been decided two weeks before that we were going out to buy new Christmas decorations for the house.
