My medical problems and their investigation and treatment
Health Update I had a surprise phone call on Friday from the Exeter hospital, totally out of the blue. It has been so long since I heard anything since my initial referral three years ago, and due to getting lost in their system for months after my initial appointment and subsequent CT scan…
The downward spiral In 2020 we longed for the normality of 2019. In 2021 we thought that perhaps 2020 hadn’t been so bad after all. “Three weeks to flatten the curve”? Hmm. The majority are ruled by fear and are willingly giving up their basic freedoms and submitting to totalitarianism. However, for the…
What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Personalised stamp jig On Thursday afternoon I went through all the cards I'd made recently, and stamped my "Handmade by..." stamp on the backs of them. I used the jig I made according to Jennifer McGuire's instructions and it works an absolute treat! I made it about…
My apologies again for visiting so few people last week. I've been so busy, and I was keen to spend some quality time in the studio being creative. Only so many hours in the day, and those hours seem to get shorter by the day! What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? I have…

What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Another week when I have had the most tremendous amount of fun in the studio. I just wish I had more time to spend in there. Stamp storage This week I returned to my new storage project, using the plastic baskets purchased from the Range. The die…
What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Not a lot, if truth be told. I've been too busy this week with other things to get near my studio. Much more of this and it will revert to its dumping ground status again. Shoshi the Tattooed Lady Last Friday I went for my radiotherapy planning…
What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? New laminator For months I have been toying with the idea of getting a laminator because I keep seeing stuff onlne about them and thinking how useful it would be to have one. I decided to go for it and after endless searching through hundreds of different…
