Once upon a time, not very long ago (four months to be exact), I am ASHAMED to say one of my tenants slept in a room like this. It looks like a half-way house doesn't it?! I don't hang my head too far down because this horrific decor wasn't my choice but rather adopted from... Continue Reading →
Life: Earth Hour 2010 West Didsbury Style
It's funny how a seemingly random post on Facebook can turn into quite a lot of Saturday night running around, but that's exactly what a pal's post about Earth Hour 2010 did a little over a week ago.
