Things Lost and Sometimes Foiund

I don’t know about you but it’s the small things in life that fascinate me. Some advice. Don’t put up with a 70 birthday it you’re not ready to be seventy. Just rename it. How often have you read instructions telling you even a child can assemble it. Don’t believe them. What to do when a belligerent 12 year old boy starts throwing stones through your neighbour’s living room window. It might feel like a live bee in your pocket? But usually it’s not. And then there is the face cream crisis. If you’re in Venice, watch a gondola race but don’t bet on it. Goats Rue, a fascinating plant which some farmers treat as the enemy. How did the new Prius lose her virginity? Remember that a cat who brings live rats into the house is not a popular pet. When you’re in Turkey, don’t miss the magic of a ride on a hot air balloon at dawn in Cappadocia. Read how four students from Singapore cope with their first New Zealand winter, or what can happen when you get your roof painted. Weather bombs that sometimes don’t come.
