Random Act of Kindness 1

Dearest reader,


Random Acts of Kindness or RAKs is a new phenomenon sweeping the cyber world. The idea behind it is to do something kind for someone else either anonymously or with the recipient knowing. (Most RAKs are anonymous)

If you'd like to know more about RAKs check out this link:

Inspired by what I had seen and heard I decided to give it a go. There are lots of ideas but I needed to start with something small. So here it is:



I left £1 in the trolley. This has never happened to me so I thought it would brighten someone's day. 

Not every RAK has to be financial, it could be an action or a promise. I started with this because it's easy and hopefully I'll build up to doing a bit more!

Just a quick read today but as always dearest reader, thank you for your time.


Watch out, 2 blogs in 2 days!! Whatever next!?

Kind regards,

Your friendly blogger

It's been a while...


Dearest reader,

It has been an embarrassingly long time since my last blog and it's down to a number of reasons:

1. Moving house
2. Decorating the house
3. Sorting the garden out for the house
4. Working through an endless list of DIY jobs to do with the house.

There may be a common theme here...

Anyway, here are a few snaps, just so you don't feel left out!





Well that's quite enough pictures for now!

The other reason I haven't blogged in a ages is, and I'm sure most people would agree, that it's very hard to find anything to blog about. I'm not very good at blogging through things but I'd like to do better, so as a sort-of-mid-year-but-not-quite resolution I'm going to try and blog about 2 different things at the same time.

Here are my two new topics of blog:

1. RAK or Random acts of kindness
2. Garden shinnanigans 

These two topics are a different ends of the scale; a thought provoking life changing experiment and, what I'm hoping will be, a hilarious tale of how I WILL build my own decking and outdoor kitchen!!

With all this in mind and many other things to think about, it leaves me only to apologise for my poor grammar and spelling and wish a very good evening!

Keep a look out for the blogs!

Kind regards

Your friendly blogger.
