About me

My name is June and I am a plump, old, grey wrinkly living in the south of England.

I decided to create this page to provide some of the information that used to be passed down from generation to generation.

Hints and tips on a variety of subjects; explanations of basic cooking, knitting, sewing, DIY, motoring and gardening terms; advice on cutting costs etc. In fact the things you might ask your mum, dad, gran or grandad.

Add to this games, brain teasers, fictitious collective nouns (as well as authenticated ones), mathematical shortcuts, wordplay and, hopefully, it is a site that is not only useful and informative but also enjoyable.
