One morning last month, Whitesnake informed me he had written a poem. There was nothing unusual in this so I told him I'd read it when I was online later. A little while later, he asked me again if I'd read it. I thought to myself that it must be a good one so I went to the computer to have a look. After reading the first couple of lines, I jumped up and said," Yes!" We were intending to keep this news between us until we told my parents but that wasn't to be.

Whitesnake and I post our poetry to the Helium writing site and a little while later, Whitesnake recieved an email from one of the Helium channel managers saying how wonderful his poem was and if she could share our story with Helium. We agreed and our story was posted to the Helium blog.

We attempted to inform my parents face-to-face a couple of times since then but couldn't due to illness and holidays. Finally, we could wait no more, we visited my parents this morning and shared our happy news.

He travelled back in time to stop a murder. Carefully noting down every detail of the crime and how he intended to change the events of the day. The big day finally arrived, his efforts made no difference, a man still died. His notebook was found and used against him. Police arrested the wrong man.


I'm reading a fab book by Stephen King - 11.22.63, which gave me an idea for this story. I have no clue how the story turns out but this was one of the scenarios I came up with.

Our recipe today is...Simply Delish Meatloaf.

Have a great weekend all!

Goodbye Norma Jean

Early years curling hair and applying makeup. The promise of stardom. Known as actress, model, singer and sex symbol. Bringing her little joy. Troubled life of illness and personal problems. Probable suicide at the age of thirty six was no way to end a life. What could have become of Norma Jean, fifty years on?  

Have a great weekend all!

I'm Entirely Bonkers

You're entirely bonkers but I'll tell you a secret, all the best people are.

Couldn't have said it better myself, Alice.

Cruelty Free Skin Care Products

Yay, I've finally found affordable, easily obtainable skin care products which are not tested on animals. When I first began my search after watching the Beagle Freedom Project Video, I didn't realise how expensive and difficult to obtain some of the products would be. Funnily enough, St Ives products were under my nose at the supermarket the whole time. I was already using the body cream but didn't realise it wasn't tested on animals because it was written in such small print. You'd think they'd want to tell the world that they didn't test on animals.

Thanks St Ives

My next mission is to do a research on the eggs we're buying. I was watching a programme the other day which showed how much farmers can get away with and still call their products 'free range'. Very interesting.
