This month is set to become the UK's wettest May on record apparently...and there's more rain to come! Oh joy. It's been like Autumn out there rather than the hopeful start of summer that this month should be, with the clouds starting to part, the sun increasing in warmth and the mood of the nation [...]
Today marks one year since we, here in the UK, were informed by our Prime Minister that we were going into lockdown for the first time, as this pandemic started taking hold across the globe. I watched the broadcast that night, fearful and anxious, knowing we were witnessing history and wondering what on earth the [...]
I woke up early. My eyes sprung open and I felt breathless. My brain instantly starting rolling over all the things I had to do that day. There was an underlying tension and anxiety which floated within me. I could have lay there and let my mind mull over everything. But the anxiety was giving [...]
We still find ourselves in strange times. I am making the most of being at home and getting lots of those little jobs done...you know the ones, you never really want to do them, but when you do it's quite satisfying! I have definitely found that to be one bonus of being housebound so much, [...]

I have just returned from a month long trip overseas...and it looks like I got back to the UK in the nick of time! As we left in mid February, the virus was just starting to kick off and as we returned on Friday it had very much taken hold. And of course, since then [...]
Many Happy Returns to everyone out there!! However you are spending the next few days/week I wish you all a very happy and relaxing time! I am looking forward to a bit of time off to spend with my nearest and dearest, and I must admit, to do not much at all!! I have a [...]
I realised this weekend just how little I have been out and about recently. Time has disappeared, eaten up by work and general day to day chores and living. In the meantime, the seasons have most definitely changed, it's now cold and dark, seeing the sun will be a bit of a novelty until spring [...]
