What did you expect? Herds of wildebeast sweeping majestically across the plane? 

And this is why I wrote my own app

Ah, yes. I think I'm going to be so bad and uncoordinated at skipping I've never even tried

Dips.

Swiss cheese!

Doing the straight leg letter Ls seems so easy when I see other people do it! But I struggle so much. That's my challenge for March! 

I’m getting the Lannister trainers on hire purchase

I bought a pair of Oakleys with my first proper pay cheque.

I always advertise my Christmas pudding recipe as an old family recipe.

With my first (ish) real pay cheque I bought a pair of Oakleys. 20 years on I still have them and wear them.

Popcorn is too loud for cinemas. Think of the person sitting near you and take a nice quiet snack like a soft bread roll
