My husband booked the holiday accommodation. I liked his choice. Great location. Beautiful sea view. Handy to people-watch and traffic. Pricey, yes. A treat. Certainly yes. My husband, my parents-in-law and I arrived a little after 3pm, the check-in time at The Gallery. As it was late December, it was already dark and cold. The […]
I make resolutions every year. I actually like making them. Following them is another story. I usually manage to practise a bit of some but certainly not all. In short, the pattern is the same every year. And yet, I persevere. This year, I have one resolution. Just being in the moment. A Carpe Diem […]
My husband and I will be flying on New Year’s Eve, and arriving home in Malaysia on the first day of 2020. A first for us. We are either at home or out toasting the brand new year with friends at a hotel or a club. Not so much the latter in recent years. But […]
It’s Christmas. That wonderful time of the year. I know I have said this before. December is my favourite month of the year, second only to March, which is my birthday month. For me, there’s very little not to like about Christmas or December. This year, Christmas came early in many of the shopping malls […]

There is a baby photo wall in the photo studio where I get my photographs printed. Yes, I do like to own some hardcopy photographs. Especially as all, if not most, of my photos are stored on my laptop or my mobile. The virtual photos on my mobile, I view now and again, before they […]
My husband and I have been visiting Fraser’s Hill for the past 20-odd years. Not much changes there. Shops, restaurants and hotels open, move and close, in and around the main town centre, but the general look and feel remains the same. The cooler temperature and quiet familiarity are almost constants in the former hill […]
