By Sarah in Gadgets Tags: e-reader, Kobo, Kobo Aura H20
Last week, I wrote about five reasons why I bought an e-reader…today, I thought I would share with you the e-reader that I am using. To be honest, this was all a bit of an impulse buy…I hadn’t really done a lot of research, apart from the knowledge that the two main players in this […]

I have fallen in love with the film photography world…the medium format film world exactly. And it is all because of this gorgeous vintage camera…. I had gone to visit Film Never Die to ask for advice on buying a film camera, thinking I would end up with an old SLR or even a compact, […]

We have two Cairn Terriers…brindle terriers…who are almost impossible to see in the dark. My husband often takes them early, which lately means before the sun comes up as we head into the cooler months. It has been my worry for ages that if one of them got away, he wouldn’t be able to see […]

Please note: this is not a sponsored post! My opinions are, as always, totally my own! It’s funny…we used to watch heaps of TV, now you are more likely to find us with the TV off and the radio on. And because my husband is sports mad, that radio is usually on SEN…a local 24 […]
Goodbye Fitbit…Hello Apple Watch Sport!

Just over a year ago, I bought a Fitbit Charge in the hope it would assist me in getting a little fitter… I wore it diligently every day…and night…and it became routine to check how much sleep I have had and how many steps/what distance I had done each day. Even my husband got into […]
