Dee Dee na na na
The Friday before your holidays. Chaos. So many things on your 'to do' list, you end up wondering whether the trip is actually worth it in the first place. Let's assume it is. I shall arrive exhausted into the ARF studio, thrilled to have a couple of hours of sanity before the madness takes over...
Slowly learning that life is ok
How many books to take on holiday? It's the annual conundrum. Ebooks have their place of course but I like a good paperback tucked in my bag. A few stolen minutes with a coffee by the dunes/beach hut/pool without the family and there's no need for a screen!
Bettin' on the number

Oh I can't take another heartache

Light up your face with gladness
Sunny morning for all it seems. Happy Monday y'all! Hope that weekend was a corker. We had rolling birthday BBQs which seemed to last all weekend. And actually they did. The food prep and washing up was a non-stop operation.
