Comments: 0Why is it that some things from the past are considered old-fashioned and out-dated whereas others are quirky or retro? There doesn't seem to be any way of knowing which fad or fashion is going to come round again and which will make a quiet and graceful disappearance.

Modern day Mothe ...more
Author: neiljontasPosted in: GiftsComments: 0What a woman your mother is. She is always in your corner, offering you her complete support. She turns out for your teams' football match in all weathers, despite having a list as long as your arm of things that are in need of urgent attention. She even washes your kit for you and probably irons it too. When you have a disagreement with one of your brothers or sisters, she is there to intervene before it escalates into out and out war, without taking sides and can sort out any problem effortles ...more

Author: neiljontasPosted in: GiftsComments: 0Valentine's Day can leave some people feeling more than a little apprehensive. They may worry that they will not receive any Valentine's Day cards at all, but it is always a lovely surprise to receive more of them than expected. The fact that they are anonymous can add to the excitement as we try to remember if we can recognise the handwriting, but more often than not the senders of these Valentine's cards remain a mystery, which really defeats the object of sending them in the first place. Havi ...more

Author: neiljontasPosted in: GiftsComments: 0If you have got someone in mind to be your Valentine this year, the first thing you need to do is get yourself noticed. You could hire a band to play beneath his bedroom window one moonlit night, but chances are he would probably sleep through the whole performance and his neighbours would not appreciate the racket dragging them out of a lovely deep sleep on a cold and frosty night. Anyway, he would have no idea that the band had been sent by you, unless of course you were playing the lead instr ...more
