still here.
a lot has changed
After a ten year little pause, I re-found this blog (those of you who know me may appreciate that I stumbled upon it during an attempt to do some accounts which immediately activated my procrastination zone to all systems go).

At some point.
In the meantime, if you have just stumbled upon this page, I have no idea how to use wordpress but hopefully you can find some of the diary style entries of a family of 7 and the tribulations and trials and fun of our lives during 2013 (maybe) – 2016 (possibly).
