Saw three big things this week. ‘Aspects of Love’ at the theatre with my mum and sister, and the two blockbusters that are breaking records at the cinema, Barbie and Oppenheimer. Absolutely loved Ryan Gosling in Barbie. Found it very entertaining and superbly tongue in cheek, loved what they did with the juxtaposition between real […]
Garden gang and Devon Days!
Had a fun weekend with the garden gang, including lovely Tommy who was 40 on Friday. He informed me that it was 32 years to the day, since I read his birthday card on SSVC television, (for the forces’ children based with their dads on military bases, living in Germany, Gibraltar, Cyprus and the Falklands), […]
Bonanza birthday week; plus sneaky peeks!
Another year another birthday! After a smashing coronation weekend, see below, the festivities continued. Not only did I go to the cinema on my actual birthday night, on Wednesday, with my sis and lovely friend Alison. (see top pic.). We saw ‘Love Again’, starring Outlander hunk Sam Heughan (see below.) The night before I was […]
Having the best ‘Lyme!’ And sneaky peeks.
Having the ‘Lyme’ of my life… and other such puns! Caught some dying rays of the sun in this great shot, on a scheduled break to the south coast this week, to one of my favourite places, Lyme Regis. The scenery is amazing, the bay is nice to walk around, and I feel like it […]
Top togs, sneaky peeks and a 4 yr old dancing dalmatian…
Really enjoyed a super fashion show on QVC this week, with Julien Macdonald, fresh from his London Fashion Week catwalk successes. This kaftan is super comfortable and colourful as well – it goes with the Bzees shoes (check out the brand on our website, they have supportive insoles, a la Vionics.). It’s been my long […]
Clearing out, Eating out & Out Out!
OMG, another whistlestop week in Devon. Completely worn out I am. Anyway… Took a week off doing retreats, because I needed to get so much sorted out, namely featuring a skip! Spent two whole days sorting ready to put stuff in skip, then filling skip, with our miracle worker, my chief helper Chris, who made […]
Doggy Day Out with pals! And seven days of sneaky peeks
Medical detection dogs – a grand day out Regulars will remember that last November I did an afternoon tea party, partly for my birthday and partly for medical detection dogs, the fabulous charity where doggies help humans. Well, this week they finally got their tour around the Milton Keynes HQ! We watched young dogs being […]
Brad my Boy is 36! And a week’s sneaky peeks…
Oh bless my son, he had his birthday whilst he was away on a business trip (okay it was a skiing business trip!) And I’m looking forward to seeing him at the weekend. But I did this little montage. From little acorns mighty oaks grow, I’m so proud of him and everything he’s achieved, including […]
A posse of presenters! Baby’s birthday, and Sneaky Peeks!
Arrived back at work last weekend and suddenly there were five of us backstage! Usually there are only two or three so it was quite unusual to be able to take this super pic, with newest girls Rezzy, Laura and Victoria already dressed up, leaving me in the shade! Always nice to see my fellow […]
Patrick’s visit; fab family & friends; plus sneaky peeks
Had another one of those weeks! Saturday was super because Patrick came to visit. He loved my place and we had a delicious lunch in Banstead. Went for a little walk, chatted to my nieces including Lara & Izzy who were over from Sweden for the weekend, and Becky, my sister Linda’s daughter. Patrick knows […]
