Moments Define My Passion for Children's Books
Oh, how I used to love reading books to my eight children! I would act out the characters, and try to make the reading time really interesting. I am with you - I love some of the children's books!

The Rise and Fall of Squidoo
I simply loved Squidoo, and wrote quite a few "lenses" there. I joined in 2010, and really enjoyed the platform. Sorry to see it leave, but my articles are all featured on HubPages, so I am content. I do miss it, though!

Survivors of the Bomb Tests at Christmas Island (Kiritimati)
Confession time. I used to work at the Palace of Westminster- the Houses of Parliament. On one level it was the most wonderful place in the whole world to work. Such a privilege to be surrounded in all that history. On another level it taught ...

Politicians are insulated from real life because in real life we, the people, have to suffer them. They inflict; we are the afflicted

The Vegetarian Chronicles; Part 2: 1st Week Review
I make a mean risotto, Frank, if I say so myself. I'm going towards a juicing diet too, if only because I don't have time at work to actually sit and enjoy my food like I do here at home. Still need to cut the wine consumption too.

Politicians *grinds teeth*. Must be utterly wonderful to be so insulated up in that little fluffy cloud world, away from the Real Life stuff that the rest of us have to put up with, eh?

Moments Define My Passion for Children's Books
I was crazy about books when I was kid. I would skip meals, sleep, studies and anything that came between me and the story books. I can understand your passion and how books could transform the world for kids. I was a bookworm and lived in my ...

Brother PQ1500S Quilting Machine Review
I was almost going to go into quilting, and was torn between getting a long arm like this one or the little old singer model, but ended up realizing in my small home crocheting would be a better hobby, and love it :-)

How to Cut Your Own Hair - Long Hair
Thank you...sometimes I need to have hubby find any little pieces I've missed, and it's easier with long hair, I don't think I'd ever cut it if short unless it was VERY short.

Absolute proof is a false goal. It never happens anywhere, so asking for it is otiose. That's why governments demand it. They demand absolute proof when giving out money, but accept less proof when demanding it. In this way they do not need to ...

Tibetan Timbres at the Shangri La Hotel, Dubai
Emirates has a great special offer on at the moment. I'm trying to resist the temptation myself. It's not quite the right weather at the moment hence the special offer I think. Fingers crossed they might renew it in January/February.
