As well as my regular work I sometimes work at events. Often these are things like concerts that I get to enjoy free – well actually I get paid to be there – but recently I’ve done a few ‘fine dining’ events. The first was at a...

As a parent I have found myself doing things I never used to do, or even things I thought I would never do. For example the phrase ‘Just a minute’ was never part of my vocabulary; now it’s something I seem to utter several times...

Not that my wife would not believe me, or even that I would necessarily lie to her, but when it comes to money, particularly in the area of spending, she knows just as well as most of you do here that I can be...

Slouching was a crime. Posture and a straight back in the Victorian Age showed your up bringing and your marriage ability. You could look comfortable or as if you had an opinion. Discipline, moral fortitude, and proper breeding...
