SubscribeTo describe our house as chaos right now is deeply unfair to chaos. (Our house is in a state which would make chaos hit the smelling salts pretty hard.) We are packing, clearing, shredding, and sorting, in largely good-humoured fashion, although we’re taking it in turn to have our moments. We have found a company [...]

The Bah! Brilliant Book Bonanza is starting to gain momentum. Writers are offering to donate books; people are asking about rolling out the idea; increasingly, it feels as though it’s a real, proper thing.

- I have gone from 5th to 8th to 14th top UK health blogger according @Wikio. It's good I don't take any notice of these things. *sulks*
