Coronavirus Remembrance Day

This day is, additionally, recognised in many other countries by many other names, including Armistice Day. November 11th has been a day of remembrance for a

Where I Am Now

Back at the start of July, I explained that I’d be cutting down on my posts on this site. I confidently went on to explain that, as I was up to date with my Cancer Dad site, I’d make a start on that ellusive first novel. I would also, as a side

How Many Shoes Does One Daughter Need?!

Emma started at the University of Bath at the end of September. Which meant that an awful lot of September was dedicated to packing. A process that seemed to involve an astonishing amount of unpacking. And then repacking. Because, it seems, deciding what to take, and how much of it to take,

The Greatest Ever English Football Club, 2020

Well, that’s never happened before! At no point in history has a team managed to get back the title of the Greatest English Football Club, once they’ve lost it, but 2020 has changed all that. Because, in 2020, Liverpool has reclaimed the Greatest English Football Club crown from Manchester United. To be

Visiting Gdansk by Cruise Ship

On Wednesday 19th July, when our Princess cruise ship docked for our port day in Gdansk, I had mixed emotions. I was happy to be back in Gdansk, a place I’d visited a few years earlier with Julie, for a long weekend. But I was also sad because Gdansk was the last

Why I’m Cutting Back On My Posts

I started doing weekly posts for Chubby House Hubby, back in April 2018. The main reason for this, was as a diversion from the other weekly posts that I was writing on my Cancer Dad site. Because, while I feel that the Cancer Dad posts are important, they’re definitely intense. And often

Visiting Helsinki by Cruise Ship

There are two places that cruise ships can dock in Helsinki, one ridiculously convenient and the other… less so. The dock in the city is right on top of the Uspenski Cathedral, Presidential Palace, Tourist Information Office, Old Market, etc. All of which means that you need to give very little consideration

My Cancer Story So Far

It recently occurred to me that I’ve now been coping and living with my cancer for more than 10% of my life. 12.86%, to be precise, which equates to more than an eighth of my time on Earth. And I tend not to talk about my cancer story much on here. Not

I’ve Got a New Job, I’m a Coin Collector…!

For reasons I’ll explain shortly, I decided I wanted to start collecting coins. But, because I’m not the most patient of souls, to complete the collection in a timely manner, I want to be able to hunt through a lot of coins at a time. To do this, I need to be

What is ‘Real Bread’?! (and what isn’t…)

Since the start of the Coronavirus Lockdown, people have had a lot of time on their hands. People are stuck at home and they finally have time to do all those things they keep meaning to do, but never have the time. One of the most popular Lockdown activities seems to have
