Walking in the Shadows
Random musings from Warwickshire on life in general... Things that make me laugh, make me cry, things that wind me up beyond all endurance - and everything in between.
About Me
- Karen
- Hmm..what can I say? Those who know me, know that what you see isn't always what you get! With regards to the astrological sign - I prefer to go by my Chinese horoscope - I was born in the year of the Tiger - with the traits being "Bright, bubbly and loves to rebel against authority." Sounds pretty good to me! *Grin* Aside from that, I'm a total petrol head - if it's got wheels and an internal combustion engine, I'm interested!
About this blog
This is the place where I put all my rants, jokes and other things that have made an impact on my life, or I feel needs a personal view point on.
Or as I like to say - my ten pence worth - the first two pence is free!
I admit, it's not one of those "politically correct blogs", but this is how I feel, what I think and I guess at times, what really winds me up.

Latest book review
How Not to be a Cricketer by Phil TufnellMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Funny as hell. If you were expecting a cricket memoire, then this is *not* the book for you. Phil wasn't known for being a "normal" cricketer - he was (and still is) better remembered for his antics off the pitch.
It does help if you have read other cricket memoirs - The Judge: More Than Just a Game being one that will really help, as will Unguarded: My Autobiography.
But it was a good book - had me laughing like hell in places, which isn't bad going when I was doing my physio....
