Apparently Michelle Obama partook in a spot of hand hugging in a recent appearance on NBC’s The Tonight Show. I have to admit it’s wasn’t something I was familiar with on the greeting front, until that is I realised it was similar to a high five.

Artline Garden Marker Review
As the Chelsea Flower Show gets underway its hard to imagine a summer without it. This year our eyes can feast on the labours of a large number of newbie designers exhibiting for the first time.
I’m no expert in the garden & as I sit in the welcome sunshine searching for inspiration in my tiny plot on the landscape, what better time to write about an Artline Garden Marker.
Pentel Energel XM BL77 Retractable Pen Review
I think it’s safe to say that not all predictions come true. The most obvious are the various prophecies of the end of the world. Then there’s the paperless office, whilst George Pake was proved right when he had an inkling that we’d be able to “call up documents from files on the screen” & be getting mail from a “TV display terminal with a keyboard” we still seem attached to the good old pen & paper. If my recent experience with a Pentel gel is anything to go by I for one won’t be giving up on handwriting anytime soon.
Here is my review of the Pentel XM BL77 retractable gel pen.
