Writer's Block-Out
Sunday, May 13, 2012 - Comment(s): 0
I know it's been a while, but I've had a problem. Literarily. I'm so bored of supposed 'experts' telling us all what we should and shouldn't be doing in respect of blogging, tweeting, texting, emailing, advertising, marketing and how often we REALLY need to be doing it.

As I sit here typing this blog post its so warm my french doors are open wide to the garden and the evening sunlight.

Taking children's wallpaper to into a different league...

I've always loved wallpaper whether its a la mode at the time or not, and think its a fabulous way to express your creativity. Wallpapers dont have to be garish, over colourful or bad for your hangover these days, and because there is such a stunningly wide variety available there is surely something for everyone. I stumbled across this website recently and just fell in love with bo…
