I just had to include this! I am known in our family as the ‘Cuddle Queen’. I can’t help it; I love hugs! Now we’ve closed the clinic and Philip is off doing other stuff sometimes (currently voiceover and acting – you can fall about laughing now…!), well, I’m not getting as many hugs as …

Compulsory Vaccinations
You may or may not be aware that the Government is considering making vaccination compulsory in order for children to attend UK schools and for families to claim child benefit.

Veg Is Much better For You Than Fruit!
In a recent study published in the Journal of Nutrition, what I always say that vegetables are far better for you than fruit was confirmed.

Iced Mocha
This has become our favourite Summer drink; perfect for when the weather’s really hot and you could do with a pick me up. Simply put 2 teaspoons of (organic fair-trade of course) decaff coffee and 2-3 heaped teaspoons of Green & Black’s non-dairy hot chocolate powder into a small cup and stir in boiling water. …
Chronic Sinus Problems – Try Humming!
Remarkably studies have shown that humming for an hour a day can eliminate sinus troubles in just 4 days!
