Plums, apples and sunflowers 🌻
Monday 14th August 2023: Another not so great summers day, I know it’s late summer but seriously it was more like autumn today. I am not sure we are going to get much of summer now, it would matter so much but Winter is loooooong and depressing enough on it’s own 😜 I decided to…

Rain, mud and rabbits and rats 🤪
Monday December 3rd : Oh what a dismal morning, never mind, onwards and upwards. At some point last night the electric tripped on the sockets in the office, I can’t find the offending item as everything seems to be fine now? After the epic family feast yesterday I don’t feel too bad considering, I thought…

Back from holibobs, back to work & and thieving little s***s 😡
Wednesday 19th Sept: This is the first chance I have had to write anything, as you can imagine it’s been pretty full on since we got back from our holiday.
