I only shop on the internet on Black Friday. Cannot take the fighting and crowds. Sad that material things are so important that they argue over goods.
I went to the www.happyheartcafe last night to listen to stories read by authors. It was an interesting evening at this café which runs many different events. The nice owner also provides vegan food which makes a change. The next one is at the Gunmakers Arms Monday the 28th November and should be interesting.
Budding authors may find these useful to promote their books and get support. I will read an excerpt from my stories at future events.
I often wonder why other countries charge for museum entry but we don't. We do for Buckingham Palace. Free access to culture is good but we need the cash and France charges for entry to the Louvre for adults. Badpuss
I like the black one especially. End of school balls; low necked dramatic ball gowns. Girls will pay a fortune for the right jewellery around here. £300 for a dress. You could offer pieces designed by commission. Badpuss
I actually managed to post a photo of my business card on Facebook. I have now written some novels and painted the cover pictures ready for publishing them.
Just bought Dhal made by Assoka. Only £1.29 and microwavable in 2minutes. Very nice. This one was made of black beans but I am going to try one made with chick peas as well. Buy at Tescos. Badpuss.
Some of the articles really distort the truth and incite hatred so I support the campaign. I think the Express is much worse than the Mail in doing this. The point is that if enough consumers show their contempt the companies won't advertise in these papers. That is consumer power. If a person wants to read the papers then good but I believe more consumers should say what they dislike from the papers. There is little news in these two papers anyway.
I don't agree with the complaints about the John Lewis advert. badpuss
Gary Linneker also wants Walkers to stop advertising in the Sun. Perhaps we need to make it clear to companies this is the way many of us want to go. Badpuss.
