So, last year our washing machine blew up and Oh Patient One and I narrowly avoided a whole day of being bored out of our minds in the washing-machine showroom, yes we did. We got our new machine delivered and installed without a hitch, and wouldn’t have to worry about washing-machine shopping again for a [...]
Remember poor Borg Sector G’s Trouble With Travel and how he was thwarted in his quest to retrieve Oh Patient One’s left-on-a-plane packet? Well, I cannot tell you how many times Oh Patient One called the telephone number for the appropriate “help” desk at the airport to try to arrange to collect his missing packet. [...]
Otherwise known as How Michelle Saved Two Blackbirds From Certain Death By Kitteh! But first a little explanation about the Darwin Awards. The fun creation of Wendy Northcutt, the Darwin Awards are usually associated with people who take themselves out of the gene pool (i.e., die) in a stupid way before they have had a [...]

No, I am not talking about the fabulous song by the equally fabulous Mr Hucknell and Simply Red. “So what are you referring to, Michelle,” I hear you cry? Well, when I am in the middle of writing a book, which I am right now, let’s just say that I get more than a bit [...]
. . . But not for me, unusually, this particular time. You see, poor Borg Sector G has inherited my bad luck with travel, as we discovered when he traveled home from university last week for the Easter break. This is what happened. . . Fail #1. His alarm didn’t go off, which meant that [...]
So, since moving back to the UK I have gradually switched all of our household bills to a monthly payment scheme. It’s the way to go here in the UK, because this method of bill payment means that you know exactly how much money you will be paying out each and every month. For my [...]
And may 2012 bring you and your loved ones peace and happiness! Michelle, with a resolution to be blogging regularly about red tape, Kitteh Princess Pippa, Trouble with Travel, and many more little quirks in life that thwart or delight . . .
