http://liz-and-harvey.blogspot.com/2015/07/i-blame-mary-berry-and-paul-hollywood.html
The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Sunday, July 12, 2015. I blame Mary Berry AND Paul Hollywood. I should have twigged when the woman in the cake decorating shop looked at me blankly when I asked for acetate. 'It's what they recommend on the internet for chocolate lace,' I explained. I called him back and he told me Uncle had fallen in his living-room and was waiting for an ambulance. So instead of spending the afternoon...

Finding life hard?
http://liz-and-harvey.blogspot.com/index.html
The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Thursday, August 18, 2016. The little white box that beeped. Visited Uncle today. He has a friend staying and she wanted to use the washing machine but couldn't get it to work. (Uncle's cleaner usually takes his washing home to do for him.) So it was a job for SuperHusband. An electrician who'd called in the day before to fix the fridge hadn't been able to trace the fault and had sugges...

Finding life hard?: Cricket-eating, sand-sculpting and ice cream
http://liz-and-harvey.blogspot.com/2015/07/cricket-eating-sand-sculpting-and-ice.html
The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Friday, July 24, 2015. Cricket-eating, sand-sculpting and ice cream. Afterwards one of the young women present said, 'I always enjoy it when you lead as you're so relaxed and it's calm.'. I looked behind me to see who she was talking to. Wednesday I took two grandchildren along to Sculpture by the Sea. A free workshop on the beach. I was in my element - and did most of the work - bu...

Finding life hard?: May 2015

The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Sunday, May 31, 2015. Walking up the steps today I felt a little lacksadaisical. As I said it to myself I stopped. Is it lacksadaisical or lackadaisical? Blogger thinks it's the latter as it picks the extra s up as a spelling mistake. And that was the conclusion I'd come to as well although at the moment of saying it lacksa felt more apt in some strange way. I know but I don't like any ...

Finding life hard?: I did used to have a brain really I did

The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Friday, July 17, 2015. I did used to have a brain really I did. So I'm in the Civic Centre and I need to get to the second floor. I walk to the lifts and go to press the button when I stop: which button do I press? Now that's not as stupid as it sounds*, trust me. The choice looked liked this:. I was on the ground floor so where was the up button? Okay, possibly it is. If you had gone t...

The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir who got Trapped in an Ikea Wardrobe. By Romain Puertolas. 4*. Another well-written but far more earthy and distressing tale is Out of the Easy. This Time ...

The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. The Other Woman causes another argument. I set the sat nav all by myself and it got me to the right place! I couldn't wait to tell Husband as soon as I got in through the door. Well done.' He patted me on the shoulder. Although she's either a dozy bint or she's in the pay of an oil company because she sent me on two completely unnecessary detours.'. Eden Hazar...

Finding life hard?: Serious holiday planning
http://liz-and-harvey.blogspot.com/2015/08/serious-holiday-planning.html
The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Monday, August 10, 2015. Last night I started reading The Spectacle Salesman's Family. I have a feeling I might have tried before and I suspect I will give up fairly quickly this time too. Not because of the story: I think I would enjoy it. No, I'll give up because of the writing style. Maybe Ive missed something, but where are you going for your holiday? Just a question I know you can ...

Finding life hard?: January 2015
http://liz-and-harvey.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Wednesday, January 28, 2015. Had to go on a photo shoot this afternoon. Me and a load of old boots. I feared I was setting myself up for a punchline. As it turned out the old boots were less worn than I am. Pete also wanted a quote for the press release so here's what I said:. 8220;Foot problems are common amongst rough sleepers because, in wet weather, they have no facilities to dry th...

Finding life hard?: July 2015

The thoughts of me and my dog who used to be Harvey, but is now George, who is Harvey's great-great-great-great-nephew. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Thinking seriously about euthanasia. Uncle is in a busy ward with a variety of other bone-damaged men. Some are young; most are older. One or two are either very old or slightly strange: the man in the next bed yesterday stared, wide-eyed, at me throughout my visit. I'm not sure if he thought I was odd or if I was in his line of view for the television. Uncle who...
