Happiness Soup: December 2013
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 31 December 2013. 2013: The year that whizzed by. It really did, didn't it? It flew and on this last day of 2013 I am left feeling very restless. I guess if I have to sum 2013 up: I did a heck of a lot of stuff but perhaps not quite what I wanted to do. In June I stopped working at Bassline:. The gaiter business carries on:. Our desert gaiters are becoming a firm favourite around the world. Quite a bit of business is word of mouth but a lot comes via Lisa’s website. Reading, reading, reading:.

Happiness Soup: Customer Service
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2013/07/customer-service.html
Thursday, 4 July 2013. The worst thing was that no one was really too concerned or helpful, even the local distributor. So Lisa emailed Columbia in the US to ask about retail outlets in Argentina and guess what? They got back to her immediately, asked for her size, colour preference and address in Bariloche – it was waiting for her on her arrival at the hostel. All free of charge including the jacket. Lisa in her jacket. 4 July 2013 at 13:41. This is the most amazing jacket. Johannesburg, South Africa.

Happiness Soup: December 2012
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 December 2012. Nature’s Little Barometers. When I was out walking early this morning I noticed a steady stream of little white butterflies heading east. As the day has progressed this stream, has turned into a torrent and butterflies have been buzzing (do butterflies buzz? Why do I call the white butterflies nature’s little barometers? Well, years ago one of my older cousins told me that when the air pressure drops the butterflies hatch; and when the air pressure drops it usually rains. I have...

Happiness Soup: Captcha and Family History
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2014/02/captcha-and-family-history.html
Monday, 10 February 2014. Captcha and Family History. Have you every wondered about these funny words? Primarily they are to authenticate that you are a human and not a machine. And they have a couple of secondary functions that are world changing/world enhancing! Yes, indeed. Have a look at this TED Talk to see the extent of how we are all contributing to digitizing books – one word at a time! And how we can translate the internet into every language. Australia has digitized their newspapers back to abo...

Happiness Soup: March 2014
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 5 March 2014. I want you to have a look at this video (. Https:/ www.youtube.com/watch? It shows at least 6 Cape Town cyclists beating up a taxi drive. I think it was taken on Sunday. I picked this up on facebook and couldn’t quite believe what I was seeing. There are also lots of ‘shock/horror’ comments on facebook and I read that these cyclists have been banned from riding in the next race. Harsh treatment indeed (my sarcasm). Imagine the fall out if 6 taxi drivers beat up on one cyclist.

Happiness Soup: Conniving Kitty
http://happinesssoup.blogspot.com/2013/08/conniving-kitty.html
Tuesday, 20 August 2013. 2 years ago we decided to lock all the downstairs windows at night – thus keeping out the bully neighbourhood cats that came in to the house to steal Bracken’s food and beat her up if she happened to be having a midnight snack. At that time she was 16 years old and no match for some of the local thugs. She was in fact quite terrified and becoming a bit withdrawn. Now for the conniving kitty part:. And we think they are just animals. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I love doin...
