Women and Hi-Fi don’t mix

On a whim last week, I bought meself one of them big flat screen tellies.
Unlike my old TV, this one didn’t come with Surround Sound, and so this week, I decided to treat myself to one and took me off to the nearest Hi-Fi shop. Unfortunately, I also took Mrs Masher.

In Dry Dock

Well, I’m back on the road again - not that you lot would know I’ve been off it, because I forgot to mention it.
But…

Earlier today, I visited the Doctor’s Surgery for the test results.

Legalised vampirism

Just before our holiday, the current Mrs Masher and I went down to that London. Covent Garden to be more exact. The New Connaught Rooms on Great Queen Street to be even more precise.
The reason for our going there, was so I could be presented with an award for donating lots of blood over the [...]

Normality resumed

Well, we’ve just got back from holiday and I have a sore arse. And no, it wasn’t THAT sort of holiday!
We’ve just returned from a fantastic week in Elveden Forest. We stayed in CentreParcs and I’ll admit to being suitably impressed. It caters marvelously for families, with plenty to keep the kids amused. It’s a [...]
