It’s strange, I’ve been wanting to improve my handwriting for years, mostly since mine looks like it’s been written by a small rodent in the middle of its death throws. It’s not a pretty sight.

I’ve been having a poke around on the internet for any suggestions to improve my penmanship, and I stumbled upon this website to analyse your own handwriting. It’s frighteningly accurate, and I’m now thinking I’d better not try and change it.

Mother nature seems to have been getting herself a bit confused around here lately.

The hedgehogs went into hibernation back in early November, which was expected. The field mice however are still out and about every night snacking in the bird tray.

I don’t know much about field mice, but I was pretty sure they were supposed to hibernate over winter too…

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again… My father is just plain weird!

I know that sounds a bit harsh, but it’s true.

I had high hopes for this film, I enjoyed the first one, but it could have been so much better. I’d seen a few clips on the trailers for the second one, and it looked far more interesting.

After re-reading the review of the first one (can you believe it’s a year already?) I was left with similar feelings of disappointment with this one too.

As with the original, it’s not that there was anything particularly wrong with it, it just didn’t really seem to pull together, and it could have been so much better had they put a bit more effort in to making it.
