Weren’t we lucky… Almost, with the weather on bank holiday? Having come back to work with a bump over the weekend, (some long shifts including 13 hour stretch!), I enjoyed a lovely bank holiday afternoon down near my other half Howard, with Brad my son and a couple of his friends as well who turned […]
Devon excursions with H! Theatre with QVC gang. And sneaky peeks!
Part two of my Devon trip this week, and after the kids went home, I had no one except me and Howard to worry about, and we had a lovely few days. It was superb not to have anything on, on almost any of the days and we just made it up as we went […]
Annual family getaway! And sneaky peeks!
I did it! Managed to get another picture almost exactly the same layout, with everyone in it and me this time as well, when my children and their children came down again for their annual week with me in Devon. It was a bit different this year because they’re all so much older and more […]
In the Swim. And Blow ‘out’ Blows Up!
Went swimming this week for the first time in absolutely ages and loved every second. Reminded me why I need to do it more often! In keeping with my determined resolution to lose some weight by the time I go to Cyprus at the end of September, I’ll be back more now I’m sure! But […]
Cornwall Catch up and sneaky peeks
It was another Devon week (without Howard – he was over in Belgium making up for his aborted motorbike trip last month, with a trip to some of the world war sites including at Ypres, or ‘wipers’ as the British soldiers used to call it during the war apparently!) One of the highlights was going […]
School Reunions & Wonderful Walks
Got back into the swing of things after our Swedish holiday this week in Sussex with a lovely walk or two along the usual route featuring a shady avenue of trees next to the fishing lakes near where my other half lives. Loved it! Also had a super reunion – Morden Farm Middle School girls, […]
Malmo moments, and sneaky peeks!
Went to see brother Glenn in Sweden this week, and of course his family; the last time Howard saw Glenn, Glenn was in nappies! (Those who don’t realise, my man and I were in the same class at middle school together till 13, and dated briefly when we were 14 – which is when said […]
Glowing Glowing Gone
From sunsets to World Cup hopes, this week has been an interesting one. The heatwave continued and with it, my heat rash has come back on my arms with a vengeance. Back to the high dose hydrocortisone sadly, if you have any recommendations let me know! Yes, I struggle a bit in the sunshine but […]
Deb’s Gang(s)
Well, another great week and it kicked off with a lunch with some pals from QVC including Ali Keenan! Howard popped in to say hi when he dropped me off as well, since he was coming back to pick me up from QVC that night, since we were going to Devon after my work finished. […]
Duck Egg decorating and sneaky peeks!
I do love a spot of decorating. Because the bike is laid up (see previous blogs), we decided we should spend our three days, decorating his spare room, finally. So we did that instead of going on a motorbike overnight away trip (I know what you’re thinking but the bike is genuinely poorly sick – […]
