Hi peeps, Sorry it has been a few weeks since I have blogged, but I had a fortnight’s leave from work and I just don’t know where the time has gone! Paul and I drove up to Cheshire for a family wedding at the very swish Mere Spa and Golf Resort in Knutsford. My cousin […]

Hi peeps, How the devil are you? Have you been coping with Snowmaggedon? I know it is fashionable to complain about the white stuff, but I must admit to have really enjoyed it! I’m sure if it persists I will be fed up quite soon and apologies to you if you have been really inconvenienced, but there […]

Hi Peeps, Ho ho ho, it’s nearly time for Santa to be loading up that sleigh. Are you ready? Don’t worry if you’re not because we still have plenty of great Christmas shopping shows to come on the Nation’s Number One! Thank heavens for home shopping and the Internet, I say! The tree is now […]

Hi Peeps, Apologies for the lack of blogging recently but since my three weeks away I am finding life very busy as the mother of an undergraduate. I thought I’d just slip that in quietly so as not to appear to be bragging about Annalie doing well in her A levels and getting her place […]

Hi Peeps, I have had a lovely week, which began with Joe McElderry coming in to sing a couple of tracks from his new Classic Christmas album. It really got us in the Christmas mood! Joe Mac has become a firm favourite with us at QVC because  he is just such a nice person. He does […]

The seven deadly sins of men! Hi peeps, After a very busy couple of weeks, what with Paul and the girls all having birthdays plus both sets of grandparents visiting, a strange calm has settled on Greenwood Towers as the Chocolate Miser is away working in Dubai for the week.   This has given me time […]

Hi Peeps, Do you have a favourite shopping joke? This is one of mine – it’s all about a woman’s dark side.. A woman was at home watching QVC. It was her day off and she was making the most of it. Her husband was out test-driving a Lamborghini, but he’d put the bins out […]

Hi peeps, I had an interesting night out recently at the Ambassadeur Club in Mayfair. It was to celebrate 65 years of the Miss Great Britain Contest. The evening was full of lovely young twenty-somethings with legs as long as the Northern Line, and a few of us oldies, too, with shorter legs but longer […]

Hi Peeps, Happy New Year to you! I hope 2010 is a great year for you! We had a lovely Hogmanay with Paul’s parents visiting from Glasgow. We had dinner at home with tons of starters followed by roast beef with all the trimmings and plenty of Champagne to wash it down. Delicious New Year […]
