Sandy – latest – 30th July
Sorry there’s still no exercise to report but I did see the rheumatoloque yesterday and she suggests a course of ‘infiltrations’ similar to the ones Bear has just had. However, the prescription she’s given me is totally reimboursable as I don’t need such ’strong stuff’. The bad news is that she’s off on holiday next week [...]

Sara – my last week of semi-vacation…

Lia’s Tips: Keeping your cool in hot weather
I’ve had the blessing of visiting and living in a few countries which are hot all year round. I’d thought I’d share with you some of the ways to keep cool in hot weather. These are the following practices I’ve observed, they are not perhaps scientifically proven, but they are green and they are well [...]

Sandy – 24th July
It has been a pretty depressing week or so and my new resolutions got lost along the way.
The good part is that my sister and her husband came to stay for a few days, but, of course, it was impossible for me to think about dieting.
The knee is still playing up and I have been forced [...]

But as my retirement has rolled on into its 12th year, my [...]

Claude – blogging tips and tricks
I think our cooperative blog has really taken off. I find that writing once a week is acceptable. Not too much work.
I like coming back to the blog and reading what you’ve written and comments. I find that the comments provide quite a lot of food for thought.
One of the things that I don’t like [...]
