Think On by Angela Caldin
‘I have noticed that doing the sensible thing is only a good idea when the decision is quite small. For the life-changing things, you must risk it.’
Jeanette Winterson in Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?
The Writers
We’re four Brits who made the big move from the UK to the other side of the world. We love New Zealand, the English language having a good laugh and the occasional moan. Ah, just read our posts and you’ll get the gist.

Love that quote – very timely for me at the moment. Am going to read the book too – sounds great.
Thanks so much for your comment. The quote really struck a chord for me too. My son and his wife have recently moved to the States after eight years in Brussels and so far all is going well. Jeanette Winterson wrote a novel many years ago called ‘Oranges are not the only fruit’ which drew heavily on her childhood with her strict pentecostal adoptive parents. Her new book returns to the same material and the title is something her mother said to her – you’ll see why when you read it.
