I want a garage

I love my house. It’s big(ish), light, nicely decorated and in a reasonable area. But one thing it’s lacking is a garage!

I never thought I would want a garage, but as the family has grown so has my desire for a garage. And not some little thing either…oh no…a big steel building garage!

And not to park the car in either. Ha ha…don’t be silly. I want a garage for the kids bikes, unused golf clubs, camping equipment, lawn mowers, gardening stuff, things that don’t fit in the loft, suitcases…in fact anything that won’t fit in our shed! After all, we have a shed that would be better suited to house a family of dormice as it’s THAT small!!

I’ve put ‘garage’ on my christmas list for this year….I like to see Santa try to get that down the chimney!

Get well soon

Wow…it’s been so long since my last post…doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun!

Getting married was the highlight of 2011 and so far 2012 has been pretty amazing too! My husband and I (oooh sounds so posh!) went to Hong Kong in March. My new in-laws were kind enough to buy us return flights as a wedding gift. It’s a fabulous place and for the first time in my life, somewhere I would genuinely move to, given half the chance!

There were many things that struck me whilst we were there. One thing in-particular was their attitude to health and preventing disease. You may have seen images of the Chinese walking around wearing facemasks. What surprised me is that they wear them to prevent coughs and colds spreading. I think it’s a genius idea. How many time have you been at work, and your colleagues have been coughing and spluttering all over you and before you know it…atchooo!!! You’re ill too!

It’s something I think should be adopted in this country. Save a fortune on get well soon gift baskets. :)
