Kate's Conversation: About Me
http://www.katepickles.com/p/i-like-everything-about-web.html
An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. An irregular blog that's a bit of a snapshot of life. Written by a middle aged woman. So it's got a take on life from that viewpoint - the view from someone born in the 50s, brought up in the 60s and 70s, bringing up my own in the 80s and 90s and now enjoying life from a different place.

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Sunday, 30 January 2011. Tennis on a Sunday. More than 2 years since last posting - I'm not very good at this blogging lark but I'll try to be more regular. It's sunny out side but very very cold. It's still January after all. The day will only be punctuated by housework and food. Which will come first? Probably the former. There's the washing to do and the shopping before we can think of food. I don't ever remember feeling cold in the house, alth...

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Saturday, 9 March 2013. 5:2 Diet - The Plateau. Ok so I have been on this diet since 7 August 2012. That was the day after the Horizon programme, Eat, Fast and Live Longer. It has changed the way I eat and probably the way I think about weight, food, health and life in general. Well, d'uh, only about a stone and a half - have you only just noticed? Until yesterday - woo hooo now I am 9st 7lbs.or at least I was - yesterday. And because next week we...

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Sunday, 10 July 2011. I have seriously done nothing today. Well, I got up, attempted to hang out washing as the rain started. Abandoned said hanging and retreated inside. I started peeking at Facebook, Twitter and the like. And time was eaten away. If ever there was a time wasting activity designed to remove hours of your life in a flash - is must be hovering on social networks. Which reminds me, when is the 5th series of Mad Men going to happen?

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Sunday, 13 January 2013. Well - thank you scales! You say I am at my target weight! The 5:2 diet has produced results. I have at long last reached my target weight after 5 months. Now I didn't have much to lose, by many standards. I was just over 11 stone (about 156 lbs - that was the kick up the backside I needed) and am now 9 stone 10 (136 lbs). So I have lost around 16 lbs. It was a very gradual loss over that length of time. I seemed to averag...

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Tuesday, 6 January 2009. We don't know what's ahead of us for 2009. One thing is for sure, work-wise for me, there will be a bit of a shake-up! So what's new about that. All my working life, the industry I'm in has been subject to change. Sometimes politically driven, sometimes, perhaps, driven by an ego or two wanting to build empires. Being public servants, we just have to grit what few teeth we might have left and get on with it. Thatcher was i...

An occasional series of ramblings on a variety of topics. Sunday, 29 May 2011. Well, we had a lovely day on 28th May 2011! Over 60 members of the Rankin family, all direct descendants of Harry and Elizabeth Rankin and their various partners and others gathered in the Royal George Hotel in Perth for a sit down lunch, some face painting and crafts for the children and lots of chat for the adults. Once we were all in place, the lunch was served! After much chat and catching up, we headed home. I was exh...
