I honestly don’t know how it’s taken me this long to find out. I’ve read at least…

Tech Triumphs. A Program For Blissful Sleeping.
It’s not often that I review apps on the blog but I’ve made an exception today because I’ve just found something that’s been such a joy to use and that’s solved all my multiple devices issues with such seamless simplicity it would be criminal to not share it with you. www.photosync-app.com PhotoSync is an app that…

Holiday Memories. Supermarket Finds.
I love holiday knick knacks. I have fridge magnets from every city I’ve visited ‘properly’ ie on self funded travel and I’ve faced the wrath of customs with hand luggage containing boxes of tea or bags of chocolate and cake that I fell in love with whilst away. It’s the little things that I treasure…

An Underscheduled Weekend. ‘Useful’ by Debra Oswald.
It was one of those underscheduled weekends here at SSG Manor. It’s nice having one every once in a while. To do what you like when you like. Like having a cup of tea on the front porch with a bowl of morning tea fruit and a magazine or two. And to be adventurous with…

Friday Afternoon Fatigue. A Blurry Show Down – Blur Perfectly by Aldi v Magic Blur by L’Oreal.
Don’t you love it when life imitates art? www.adweek.com I’ve spent the afternoon in the world of Vince Vaughn’s classic stock photos. You know how it is with mandatory online training for work.
