    I’m a pensioner I don’t do expensive! Ok so I’ve had a bit of fun with this, with not much time to do it in. Been to hospital, came back home a bit low, so a bit of self therapy was called for. Actually finances are not quite as bad as I make out we… Read more

  • Through a Mirror Darkly.

    A news article, that I found interesting, was about two twins that had built the world’s biggest model railway.
