Sadly there are some of us who now won’t be seeing our mothers on Mothers Day, or won’t be having a visit from children and grandchildren. Of course there will also be those people who find Mother’s Day tough and would spend it with friends or keeping busy out and about, and now find they’re stuck in the house alon

Most of us leave ridiculous excuses back in childhood when we work out that ‘the dog ate my homework’ just doesn’t work and no one believes ‘the chocolate biscuit fell out of the cupboard into my mouth’, But, there are plenty of people out there who still feel they need to make an excuse, no matter how silly, when they haven’t taxed their vehicles.

International Women’s Day – An Equal World is and Enabled World
It’s International Women’s Day and the theme this year is #EachforEqual. It’s all about gender equality in every aspect of life. In business, in sports, in the media and in government.
