I was sure I had previously written about it here but apparantly not.
Before Christmas there was a stooshy in the Courier due to Dundee holding a Winters Light Festival which included turning on the Christmas tree lights among other things as part of the Homecoming Celebration.
Rants and raves from the religious and righteous about political [...]
I just realised that we are now three quarters of the way through the year.
What shocked me was that I couldn’t really think of anything significant I had done yet. For me. I thought about it a bit more and counted up about 20 days I had helped Genna on stalls including about 3 weeks [...]
