This here Greggs vegan roll has been around for a while and I’ve been meaning to try one, to see what all the fuss is about. So is it a load of tasteless junk food or actually quite nice?

Book review – My Rock My Refuge by Timothy Keller
As we headed into 2019 this book was being promoted by our church as a good read in the year ahead. The book itself is a day-by-day read giving a little bit of a Psalm to contemplate.

This book ‘Hitler, Stalin and I’ was given to me by Mandy, one of my peers at the Council as a more personal leaving present just before I left. She knew I had a liking for people and stories of people and therefore thought I’d find this book interesting. Actually the subject of the book, Heda Margolius Kovaly was Mandy’s mother-in-law and this connection makes the story all the more compelling and real. Continue reading “Hitler, Stalin and I”
Bean Bag coffee review
I picked these up in Waitrose before our Scottish holiday as I was unsure what the coffee “facilities” might be. With these bean bags, my coffee drinking turned out pretty well and so time to do a Bean Bag Coffee review. Continue reading “Bean Bag coffee review”
