We live in a little cul-de-sac of five houses and on bin day we have to take our wheelie bins to the end of the road – and then back once they’ve been emptied, obviously. We never like to leave the bins out there too long...

I prefer ‘proper coffee’ over instant, and generally make it using a cafetiere/ French press. Sadly we went through a bit of a phase of breaking the glass and in general it’s cheaper to look for a second hand cafetiere in a...

You haven't heard me say much about the Tuesday Challenge, something I personally started a little over two years ago (October 2023 to be exact) recently. And in fact, I only update it, or revisit it every once in a...

Fleur Absolutely, lack of space in modern homes only promotes the 'throw-away society'.

Fleur We have all shared our contact details in case of problems like alarms going off, or if we need to warn the others about large deliveries getting in the way or that sort of thing.

Fleur I had to get rid of my Moka pots because they were not compatible with the induction hob we now have; I did get a new steel espresso maker but we don't use it as often as the cafetiere.
