  • Hope you’re all getting time to relax and catch up with family. That’s what I like best about this time between Christmas and New Year. Reflecting on how it’s been. For me it’s felt like and endless year, and things that happened a couple of months ago, seemed like much longer than that. Now, it’s…

  • There’s nowhere like Warwickshire when the bluebells appear in the woodlands. Ann and Sophie have the same thoughts on a warm sunny April afternoon. Sophie is on the hunt for fairies. You never know when they may appear and glad to see she found them. Good to see magic in the air. Hope you’re enjoying…

  • Wishing everyone who follows my blog, and other places, a very Happy New Year – 2017. It doesn’t seem a minute since last time does it? We’re still relaxing after Christmas and enjoying the mid-winter break, even though we didn’t actually have much time off work. It’s always good to spend time with family though,…

  • We had fun today, opening presents with Ann and Sophie as they’re going to her other gran and grandad’s for Christmas Day. Here is the must have p’j’s – clangers and the unicorn handbag for all the best dressed girls about town. And in the middle picture, pink fluffy marshmallow dressing gown for when a…
