Deceptive Ease
Anyone could be forgiven for believing that it is easy making money on-line. After all, we are bombarded with adverts day in day out, stating that this ‘automatic system, once set, will make you a millionaire in one or two weeks’, all without any effort on your part. Anyone who has been trying to make [...]
The Teenage Nightmare
Parents and teenagers are therefore often looking for the best acne treatment available.
Protecting My Feet
As a nurse, I do a fair amount of walking each day, and it tends to be my feet that are the last thing I think of maintaining. Until recently that is. I organized for some of my patients to have a chiropodist visit them at home and was astonished at the difference it made [...]
Protecting Our Modern-Day Chariot
That time of the year again. Need to re-insure the car, and again shocked at how much it has gone up this year, despite the fact that we have not made any claims on our insurance and we have maximum no claims bonus. Last year we were in a hurry to insure the car and [...]
You Have To Have Insurance
Well, I must admit that for years I felt my mother was a great pessimist. She always insured everything and anything ‘just in case’. But now I have my own business and of course I need to have insurance for every eventuality. I also have friends who have lost almost everything they had because their [...]
Fat Revisited
When I worked as a Nurse Practitioner in a GP practice in England, we routinely saw patients that had weight problems. Most of them were overweight. If counselling and advice did not help, in the end the doctors would prescribe some medication that was guaranteed to help the patient lose weight. Look and search for [...]
Renting A Pre-Furnished House
Before I moved to this country, I lived in many houses in different countries, but we always took our furniture with us. Then we moved here, where it is normal to rent a house or apartment that is fully furnished. In fact, getting a property for rent that is unfurnished is almost unheard of here. [...]
Eco friendly trade shows
We’re all trying to be more environmentally aware these days, and a great way to do that is to buy pre-owned products that are still in great shape. For businesses, that means buying used trade show displays instead of new ones. While new displays can still be eco-friendly, buying a used trade show booth means [...]
Still Trying to Lose Weight
No, not me. As I said before, I am terminally underweight and always have been. But my friend is still desperately trying to lose weight and has now spent a small fortune in search of the ‘magic bullet’ that will help her. She exercises regularly, does not eat half as much as I do, she [...]
For Those Who Do The Work They Are Meant To Do
I have now been a nurse for 30 years, and though I tried different job before that (teaching and law) to me it really is the only real job I would ever want to do. There is immense satisfaction when you do work that you just know you were ‘meant to do’. It is hard [...]

When Butterflies Live In Your Stomach
Apparently having to speak in public is more traumatic to most people than getting a divorce! The thought of having to get up in front of other people (whether just a few or a few hundred) makes their palms sweat, their mouth dry and their heart beat in their throats. Butterflies appear to be living [...]
Comparing Businesses
I have my own little business, which requires no office, no stock, no supplies, just people power and a good line of communication. This can be a pity, because the cost of an office could be charged back against tax, so we are looking into appointing a room in our house to become an office, [...]
