After today's ridiculous "Outing" of William Hague by Guido Fawkes, I fully expected my MP to come out screaming and shouting about privacy and rumour mongering.  She after all, was the "Victim" of such an attack.  She issued a writ against Damian McBride for his slanderous emails…I will not repeat the contents of them, as [...]

So the tour ended a day early as we were all knackered, and Mrs Plug was not feeling up to much.  We will be partaking of the final day, a trip to Thorpe Park, at a later date to be decided.  The final day was therefore, spent in London,  We started the day in Bedfordshire, [...]

Beatrix Potter, Helvellyn, Blue Tarn, Beautiful, Breathtaking, [...]

This time next week, we shall be preparing for our week in the Lakes with the lovely "Pops" family.  It is a couple of years since we were last there, and although we will be without our smallest companion this time, I am really looking forward to it.  We approach the end of a hard [...]

I write this, dear reader, from the safety and comparative warmth of my new MAc mini. Well I say new, it is actually second hand…a purchase from ebay. I was disappointed to see that my Dell machine, had collapsed under the weight of it’s own crapness, and worked out that in order to fix it, [...]
