Role Models

Winter flu season is causing all kinds of sickness, notably for our senior citizens and those with compromised immune systems.

The bubble bath syndrome

Lately, I’ve noticed that there’s been a surge in the number of men taking bubble baths after a long hard day at work, or outdoors.

Emmy’s chocolate cake therapy

When I first met my partner Mike’s mom Emily McGrath so many years ago, I was immediately struck by how open and kind she was. Everyone knew her as Emmy and she reminded me so much of the Elders I had grown up with in my family.

Welcome to 2025

New times, old times

The fiddlers are getting everyone’s feet moving and tapping to the tune of “Soldier’s Joy”, one of my all-time favourite reels. The stalwart fiddler of the old days has been replaced by a stoic-faced musician with only his foot keeping time, a loud rhythm guitar and a booming bass to keep everything tightly paced.

Winner loser

The jingle of coins as they were placed on the kitchen table clashed with the growing mound of money. The cards clicking and the rapid shuffling of the deck and the sounds of air whooshing out of pursed lips were all strong indicators of a good hand. The dealer, an expert from years of handling a deck of 52 cards, and the players, regular Friday night participants, either threw down their rotten hands or stayed on for the growing pot.
