Are bloggers increasingly busy?
"B" in the categories is business and investing. This post will be a combination of business/opinion. I have noticed over the last few weeks, that although I get quite a few clicks, I don't get the number of comments to match the clicks. There are of course always my faithful friends who never fail...

Next category
Arts & Photography. Now that appeals, because I have my digital camera only since about three months and love to experiment with it. Of course, one can never resist a sunset, so here is one of my better efforts for you to enjoy.

vogue turning realtor
After having spent so many months in Turkey and, as I told you in my journal, experienced so many changes which are not all to the better, I doubt that I will come back next year. However, I can't afford to let the place just lie idle, so I have decided to advertise it for rent on a website called...

The domestic she-devil's latest disaster
Yesterday, I went on a cleaning rampage. I won't be defeated by domestic tasks, I can do it. All went well until I decided to go really over board, taking the net curtains down and washing them. What came out of the washer were..tatters! I didn't choose the wrong program or even put bleach in, it...

Cybernating
I may have re-invented the wheel, but as far as I am concerned, I have coined a new word: cybernating. It's on a par with surfing or browsing the net, but for me it means finding a really good site, getting all cosy and hunkering down for a leasurely read rather than flicking from page to page....

Whatever next?
The "personalized and personal" hype has reached a new height. Believe it or not, you can now, for the modest consideration of something like $500, get your personal eyelash weaver. It appears that an eyelash specialist, eyelash consultant or whatever the job description may be, will tend to your...

A heart for chickens
I was looking for a picture I wanted to post, but can't find it anywhere, so I am discribing it. It's a road sign in the Bahamas and it shows a bright yellow chicken on a zebra crossing with the caption: Chicken Crossing!! Isn't that sweet? I wonder if turkeys are also allowed to cross there. I've...

Impressions from South Africa

But I'm doing something else useful which is tidying my drawers and sorting through all the accumulated photographs. I would like to share some of them with you. I have been to South Africa on several occasions and...
