I feel like I should maybe put a note in here explaining these are reasonably old.. but still priceless 🙂 While mum was recounting their holiday in Morocco, Hannah with a look of horror on her face: Oh my god, were there like foreign people there?! Dad: whats the coldest country? Hannah…. what… Dad: Chile … Continue reading
I should be studying right now. Let me fill you in: I am on the train. It is reasonably early. It feels much earlier due to the significant lack of sleep on my part. Nevertheless, I got on the train happily and took out my mound of notes, ready to settle into some productive learnin’ … Continue reading
So I was dutifully completing a project for Colaiste when my phone began to ring. It was farmer Richie, who informed me of 2 additions to the farm. Lambs! 2 lambs! So at a pace approaching the speed of sound, I was up and grabbing the nearest camera and hopping about whilst simultaneously trying to … Continue reading
