New Computer and Easter

Well I am very excited, I’ve bought a new computer. It’s got rams, buttons and gigathingys – however it is also PINK. It’s also got a built in webcam, so that is something you can look forward to. I have…

Crisp and Dry Confiscated

They confiscated my Crisp and Dry – the 2 packs of 500gms of solid fat that I was bringing back from the UK. Happily I was allowed everything else of the 5 kilos that I was over my luggage weight…

Stove

We have bought a stove. We bought it on Ebay for 150 euros (110 pounds or so) and we’re really pleased with it. It the enamel needs a good clean and the metal is rusty. We’re not sure where it…
