Our girl-cat is making a lot of noise right now… whilst she’s asleep.
She’s sitting in a computer chair fast asleep right now as my fiancé plays Civilization IV. I like the music from that game, and love to sit and knit and watch him play. Right now I’m blogging though… stated Captain Obvious! Anyway, [...]

May sound funny, but once you’ve checked out Epicute you’ll understand!

Well, looking at the housing market… so it’s sort of window shopping on two different levels!
First up, it’s amazing the amount of incorrect keys you hit when you’re sneezing whilst typing. Hilarious. Back to the topic at hand, now. Sooo, prices look to be… umm, pretty bad, actually. Property prices seem to be falling still, [...]

I couldn’t resist throwing my opinion out there like so many other bloggers.
Okay so run down just in case you’ve missed all this, which would be bloody amazing because the story is everywhere, but here it is anyway. In mid-December, Google noticed that someone was trying to attack it. No news there, that happens [...]
