Had a very tasty dinner tonight, Mexican salad with some lamb rump baked in the oven and came out absolutely perfect. I don’t want to sound like I’m boasting but I think I got cooking lamb down to an art for – everything else? well, that’s a hit or miss but I am getting better,…

I got up today and worked from 11:30am to 8:00pm and nos I’ve got two days off. Tonight I went for a power walk – I was going to ‘take it easy’ but I’m one of these people that if I do something I”m either all in or I won’t do it at all, there…

Still got a sore throat and coughing but I feel a whole lot better than I did a few days ago – the last time I had this I ended up pushing through with the end result being that it took longer to recover vs had I just taken the time off from work and…

I woke up this morning with a splitting headache and sore throat (resulting in a croaky voice and difficulty speaking without eventually needing to cough heavily) so I thought it would be best to have today off to recover. After waking up, I then checked to see whether Google had released an update for Chrome…
