A little while back you might recall me mentioning that I spent one very hot weekend on a two-day motorcycle rider training course. Why you might ask? Well, as I’d rather keep A Sweet Muddle a place to share positive things, let’s just say that I’d been a little frustrated by our public transport system […]
For all my UK friends, if you’re not already in the know, this week is officially National Chocolate Week. This helpful fact would probably have been more useful had I shared it with you at the beginning of the week, but I’ve been busy moving house, which has kept me out of the […]

I think I may have jumped the gun in my last post. Rather than basking in the summer-like sunshine of late, I spent yesterday holed up indoors, sheltering from the torrential rain with my winter woollies out again for (hopefully) one last hurrah.
