I'm only going away for a week; why am I cramming a huge suitcase full of clothes [I know I'll only wear a fraction of what I take but don't know what those things are]? Trouble is, I always used to do the holiday packing but now I'm with the S.O. it's his car and I'm only allowed to pack my things. Last time he even took the dogs food out of the container I'd put it in and said it had to be in a plastic bag. I get soo frustrated. I used to pack the car for holidays abroad touring Europe with kids and tents and everything. Now I can't even pack a suitcase of clothes just for me without taking too much stuff.
Belfast another appalling attack, we need to ask what is driving this.
Soops kitchen, a place of reflection, refuge and at times revelry.







.. probably more Famers' Ball than Hunt Ball Phoenix , though the way the weather's shaping I might be seeing the New Year in at Aberdeen Airport!
