Being A Mish

I am pretty ego-centric. I am occaisionally arrogant (just look at my Nohari and I know that you guys all know that!) and sometimes I forget how other people see things, empathy is so not my middle name. The idea that someone read my fiction and didn’t think twice about assuming it was a real … Read More


Going To The Pub

I don’t get to the Bobbin a whole lot for various reasons. I really do tend to enjoy it when I do get down there because I like people. I mean apart from those days when I really don’t I do actually enjoy finding out about people. Friends especially but people in general also. The … Read More

My Gentleman Friend has said before that I treat Love (the Bitch) as something akin to a Goddess…maybe so…this entry is another foray into … Read More


Not To Be

Today I should have been teaching year tens and year elevens. About now I should have been headed home after finishing my driving test (and maybe even passing – who knows). Thanks everyone for all those lovely, lovely (and indeed luvly) text messages. I’m not. Today I woke up at six and headed to the … Read More
