Let’s not mention the P word

Posted by Sharon on December 1, 2011 in Life in General, News, Writing |

You know — the ‘P’ word. The one that rhymes with horn and tends to send warning bots into overdrive.

Well, yes, that’s because it is, but every time I feel like moaning, I spare a thought for those who are homeless and those, who for whatever reason, don’t have access to central heating. I also spare a thought for my grandparents now no longer with us, and of how ‘being cold’ was something they [...]
