GRUMPY'S DAILY GRUMP (Free subscription) | 22/11/2009
My holidaying friends, and their fridge, are all now back from vacation mode. Consequently I was round at their house on Saturday, watching the astonishing Poland’s Got Talent (or MAM Talent to use the Polish TV Channel’s name; hence the truly horrendous title to this piece of rambling dribble) - beamed in via Polsat on a satellite dish that looks suspiciously like something that should...

Since I received my new Wags n Whiskers stamp last week I just can't get enough of it! I think it has to be my fave Christmas stamp this year, especially as there's a little cat on it! So, even though I have lots of stamps worthy of using for my Christmas cards, I've once again turned to this stamp! I think maybe because it's a good size too, so I don't have to think too much when putting a card together...

I've been pretty fortunate to have a baby who is generally happy, good tempered, and easy going. I have been lucky that I'm able to take her everywhere I go. It is also my belief (probably my very naive belief!) that if I teach Little One that we go out to movies, plays, concerts and church, she'll learn that this is what we do and she'll learn how to act in those kinds of social settings. Maybe I'm...

There's nothing quite as thoroughly British as a loaf of Hovis is there? Well, what their iconic "we went to't shops me Mam and me" TV ads didn't point out was that a large percentage of the 1.4 MMT of wheat Rank Hovis mills every year is imported from Canada.Whilst you or I probably realised that, your average housewife in the queue at Tesco's probably didn't have a clue did she? So full...

For the last two months the number one search term entered by the readers of The Soft Landing has been “toothbrush,” so we set out to locate BPA, PVC and Phthalate-free toothbrushes for the whole family. We were pleasantly surprised in many cases, and of course disappointed at the same time by the number of companies that wouldn’t even respond. Here’s a preliminary list to get...
