Men and their wonderful charms
It's late in the evening ... she's wondering what clothes to wear .... she put's on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair ... yes its a song - a great song - a personal favourite, well it was many moons ago - before I discovered Carl Cox and the wonders of mixing 3 decks.
It's one of those slow relaxing songs that remind you of a time, a place and people from yester year. Anyway the point of my little ditty is that the song is clearly written by a man - I mean to say a woman will almost certainly know what she is going to wear, and she would have done her hair and make-up with her clothes in mind - most importantly her lipstick.
Do men ever notice the colour of lipstick?

A Terrace with a view
When someone says they are renovating the uninitiated smile and think oh painting - the initiated, understand the sinking feeling, of bathrooms, electrics, plumbing, kitchens, flooring, windows, and then painting.
Having just realised after three months of renovating that we have another three months to go - I decided that this is well and truely something that I need to start telling people about - in fact I think that I have more to say on house improvements than most - So what are the key things to know.
Double the time you think anything and everything will take
Sourcing and selecting is fun but causes the most stress
building merchants are not just places for men
If you have a view then enjoy it at every opportunity!
