Hands are my favourite things, quite often neglected and taken for granted and oh so important. My Dad had kind and gentle hands so big, that as children we used to have to hold onto one of his huge ...
Halloween to those who celebrate it. You may remember from last year that I don't. (this year's sign for the door may be simplified to something that merely says *something* off ). However i ...
