Mama Sitas
First of all, this is our house with the railings finished. Personally, I think Simon did an amazing job and it makes a huge difference to how the house looks. I also think it will impress the real estate agent … Continue reading

Grey
Honestly? I have never lived in a place that is so consistently grey. Day after day I wake up, look out the window and it’s grey – not a light. silvery grey – an oppressive, clouds-hanging-low-in-the-sky grey. I also admit … Continue reading

Another story
Luckily – this hasn’t happened to me yet. And yes, I do have imaginary friends – tiny people living inside my head. But I won’t get into that. Simon can describe these little people better than I can – he … Continue reading
