Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the U.S.

November 22, 2018

We don’t do Thanksgiving here in Ireland, but I’d like to take this opportunity to wish all my friends in the United States, both ‘real’ and online, a lovely day and to give thanks for having all of you in my life. In Chicago are friends who swam with me here in Ireland many moons … More Happy Thanksgiving to my friends in the U.S.

Online friends will you look after me in my old age?

January 11, 2018

I can remember one day whilst on holidays in Donegal as a child, passing a church. A coffin was wheeled out, and the only people following it, were the priest and the lady who looks after the church. No relatives, no friends. I was a teenager at the time, but I can remember being so … More Online friends will you look after me in my old age?

I made it out alive!

July 25, 2016

So I met the yank Beth from ‘I didn’t have my glasses on’ and I know you are all waiting with bated breath to see how it went? Was she a crazy stalker? Was she in fact a he, as my children suggested? Was she anything like I imagined? Sadly for those of you who … More I made it out alive!

Do as I say, not as I do.

July 21, 2016

Do you have children? Do you often find yourself telling them one thing while doing another? (If not don’t read on because I don’t think you and I will get on). You see for years now I’ve been warning my gang about the dangers of the internet…don’t give away personal details, don’t ‘talk’ to people … More Do as I say, not as I do.

August 26, 2014

Today is a good day! Take a look to your right and you will see my shiny new badge. I have been shortlisted for the Irish Blog awards in the Best Personal Blog category. It says ‘short’list but actually it’s still quite a long list if you ask me.  Late last night as I was … More Thank you my blogging friends.

“You have online friends. How sad are you!”

March 22, 2014

There was a time when I thought online friends were a figment of the imagination of sad people who had no real life. I could not understand a relationship which was acted out online. Facebook friends were a joke to me, and I was judgemental of those who used online dating sites. Then I began … More “You have online friends. How sad are you!”

What keeps a blogger blogging?

February 6, 2014

I have been writing a blog now for over one year. One year doesn’t seem like a very long time, but I have written almost every day. That is a lot of “my thoughts on a page”. Over the year I have seen a large number of bloggers disappear. It is frightening how many. Sometimes … More What keeps a blogger blogging?

Happy Birthday to me.

January 28, 2014

This day last year “My thoughts on a page” was born. I remember so well that very first day when I wrote my first post. I thought the web was a huge place and I would be relatively anonymous. When the little wordpress star lit up I had no idea what it was. On discovering … More Happy Birthday to me.
