Funnier second time round?

I’ve been  reviewing the statistics for my blog and getting an idea of what you ‘regular’ and  new readers find interesting and the statistics themselves are interesting! For example, the other week, I noticed that my post  featuring actual London Undeground announcement had been found by somebody via Google keywords… I assume that person was […]

Casa Bella to open its doors to public!

It’s the week leading up to Casa Bella’s Halloween and, in my usual inimitable way, I’m stressing that not all of my ducks are standing to attention, indeed some of the ducks haven’t even been hatched yet, and, a week today, we’re supposed to  be in the throws of terrorising  guests, or being terrorised!   So, there’s […]

Afraid? You will be… Halloween, Hell Houses, Magic & Religion.

“Our fascination with fear is a curious one, we’re addicted to the exhilaration of fear but only if we know we’re safe.  From rollercoasters through to haunted houses, some of us subject ourselves to extreme situations for a quick thrill but some terror is all too real…” And so autumn is upon us once more, […]

Dark skies are upon us as preparations commence

So, it looks like I’m not the only one who’s running  around trying to fit the last pieces of the puzzle (otherwise known as concept) into place.  Casa Bella’s Halloween is just 20 days away, and the 31st October just a couple of days after that. The clocks will be changing soon which means the […]

‘There’s someone in my house’; Halloween’s sinister side

It’s October,  and it’ll soon be Halloween,  the witching season. For some parents, it’s the only time of year when they get to exhibit their creative flair for costume design whilst encouraging their children to go out, join a gang and terrorize the neighbourhood. For most, Halloween is about ’ghoulish’ fun and the opportunity to […]

This week I received an email from BESTDATINGSITES.ORG who thought I might be interested in sharing one of the articles from their blog. And, since I’m often posting articles about relationships on a Different Angle, I thought this fitted in nicely. So, how’s your relationship with your boyfriend/husband’s mother?   Are you the best of […]

My best friend, Judas, the train and the automobiles

My best friend, Judas, the train and the automobiles

Many of you will have been following my posts from the past year about my love affair with the Range Rover Evoque and my involvement in some of the original research that helped shape the car, its features, it’s marketing material and day experiences. Some of the eagle eyed, non gold fish syndromed among you […]

Blog post about controversial relationship manuscript sees web traffic soar!

“If you’ve  loved, been loved, have hurt or been hurt , lost or thrown away somebody special, then this book is not only for you but it is about you.” Wow, my Sunday blog posts have always proved  popular with readers (must be all that spare time) but none as much as yesterday’s article about my […]

Controversial relationship manuscript to get a ‘dusting’

“The demons are those shadowy thoughts that lurk in the deep recesses of our minds. You know, the painful ones that loiter on the periphery of our consciousness just waiting for a song, place, smell or taste to order them to the fore and remind us just how much we miss someone.” Extract from COMING […]

It seems you can’t get enough of  them as there’s been an exponential increase in hits to the blog! So, with this in mind, […]
