Listography: Now That's What I Call Music

I keep meaning to join in Kate's Listography series.  Some of the posts that are dotted around the blogosphere created from her prompts make me HOWL laughing!

This week I've just got to join in completely embarrass myself as the theme is "First Five Albums".

The Story Of The Communal Microwaves

This is a strange tale.  It is the tale of two microwaves and other electrical equipment in a communal kitchen.




Cancer - Your Story : The Big C

Editors Note: It's been a while since I posted any "Cancer - Your Story" guest posts.  The facility is always there in the background if anyone wants to use it.  Recently, Sharon contacted me and asked if I could reproduce an up-to-date version of her own story about her Dad along with information about what she has done to raise awareness and charity funds.   This blog post originally appeared on Sharon's blog, "I Heart Motherhood" and you can find her on Twitter as @iheartmuthahood

More Me

More useless information about me that you probably knew already but you're here anyway and might as well read... *ahem*

100 Words - Dear Mum

I realised, with a jolt, that it is weeks since I visited your grave.  I felt guilty.  But I also remembered that you would want me to live in the here and now and make the most of what is happening in my life, especially as it is so exciting now. 

I want to know what you would have thought.  What am I saying?  Of course you would have been proud of me.  That's what Mother's do, isn't it?  Enthuse about their off-spring.  

What I'm trying to say is, even though you're not here anymore, you're still my inspiration.




If you would like to suggest a prompt for my 100 Words post on a Sunday then please email me

Wikio Parent Blog Rankings - April Preview

Do you fancy a sneak preview of the Wikio Parent Blog rankings for April?




The End Of The World Is Nigh!

My "BBC Breaking News" app on my phone was flashing wildly this morning.  "EARTHQUAKE IN BLACKPOOL."  I checked the date - April 1st - but thought it would have been a pretty sick joke as an April Fool prank considering recent events in Japan.
