Coronavirus: Things I’ve learned from school at home

May 26, 2020 By Ellen

How long has this been goin’ on? asked Ace in 2975. Flippin’ ages, comes the answer in a warble. Yes. It all started so suddenly, so unthinkably, with our usual lives unceremoniously parked.

My Hotter Fit – a step closer to comfortable feet

March 9, 2020 By Ellen

Apparently more than 75% of us haven’t had our feet measured in the past 10 years – this is according to the people at Hotter. Frankly, I’m a bit surprised it’s even as many as that. After all, your feet are pretty constant, aren’t they? Hanging about in your shoes, the same side they were […]
