As I suspected (and feared…) V-Juice have discontinued producing Mermaid Tears. VapingWizard have been claiming they had 5 bottles left at 3mg nicotine for ages, and I was saving that as a last resort, even though I run at just 1.5mg. Yesterday I placed an order for all 5; order accepted, email confirmed, payment taken […]

11th July 2025 Seriously scorchio today… Gone up to 32C here in Greno – which is 90F! Love sitting out soaking it all up in the back garden. But not today – I lasted 5 minutes… 13th August 2025 Today clocking in at 33C late afternoon – the highest I’ve ever seen on my watch.

After a long call with R last night, it might be time to take stock… It’s not the pleasantest of things to face the reality of the toll that old age takes on us! In short, R has had to face a few big issues, whereas I have been beset with a thousand niggles. From

As I’ve previously mentioned, we’ve had quite frequent sightings of a couple of buzzards circling about high over Greno. But this afternoon, we were treated to a flock of 6 flying north-south, circling a bit, then coming back south-north. Feel rather fortunate to have witnessed that! ‘flock’ is not really the correct collective noun. If

Looks like action is finally being taken to address the parking nightmares in areas to the west of Castleton, according to Derbyshire Council, and a double-red era will shortly begin. Not exactly sure where all the customary peak period visitors are expected to park, considering how quickly the official main car park gets full, but,

Went to put out the absolutely chocker blue bin for pickup tomorrow – only to find there was nothing in it apart from an empty plastic pop bottle which was certainly not one of ours! Just felt gobsmacked and mystified! Had we been Webermaned?! Then Mel recollected hearing some banging outside last night, but thought
After over 9 years using SKY TV, I finally got round to cancelling the subscription. I did do a half-hearted cancel back in 2018 just to get a price reduction down to below £20 pcm, but annual price increases pushed that up to £49 by last April, and would take it over £50 this April.
