Zebra Nap
OK, you have caught me ‘zebra napping’ and I must admit that I have been rather slack recently in terms of adding to my blog. Time to turn over a new leaf and get myself back into the habit of writing and posting here. Just been one of those times when other things have taken [...]

Margarine, the not so healthy alternative
I remember my mother was always very suspicious of margarine when it was introduced in the 1960′s. She could not understand how a man-made product could possibly be better for you than a natural product. Way back after it was brought in she said: “You wait and see, one day, someone will tell us how [...]

Tennis anyone?
I am not a big fan of watching sport on TV but I will watch the Australian Open tennis which starts today.

Plight of Elephants
I am very fond of elephants and quite recently, I saw the American 60 Minutes program about an elephant orphanage in Kenya. It left me shocked to see the extent of poaching going on which leaves so many young elephants not only orphaned but traumatised, and some severely so. The story was originally aired on [...]
