Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Just got home about an hour ago, had a little catch up with Dave, and then thought I’d come upstairs to chat to you. Tell you what, I was thinking about you on the drive home. How amazing that so many of you were watching at 7 am! I asked you to join me, so I wasn’t flying solo, but I honestly didn’t expect so many of you to actually show up! And then…
Hi there, Thanks for popping in. What a lovely sunny day it has been. Rosie and I have had a smashing day. Had intended to go shopping in Stamford, but the traffic headed to the Burghley Horse Trials was extreme, so we hung a left and took the scenic route to nowhere in particular. (Dave heaves a sigh of relief) Until we saw the sign for …. MELTON MOWBRAY STOP THE CAR!! She yelled (Rosie, that is) And that was…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Right. That’s it. All packed and ready to head up to the studios, for Saturday’s Birthday shows on Hochanda. Why two days early? Well, Rosie and I are meeting today. We have booked into a lovely hotel nearby, and we are going to have some chill time. Nice meal, good banter and a girly day together tomorrow. I know. It’s hard, but somebody’s got to do it! Here’s a step by step, using two…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. I am in danger of sliding out of my track today; I can feel it. You know that feeling, that anxious sense that you get when you’ve drunk too much coffee, except you haven’t drunk any? So I have to refer back to my old handbook of life, and the first rule is: keep it in the day. Stop worrying about tomorrow. Just do today today. And instantly, I feel less anxious. Not that…
Hi there. Thank you for dropping in. It’s late. The Moon is up already. Been a long day, prepping for the TV shows on Saturday. Not long now, before we get to release our new Designer paper and Parchment. Saturday 7am HOCHANDA! I don’t think we will sell out. Well not at 7am! Who watches at 7 o’clock in the morning?! But if you do, and we do, I’ll send you a postcard from wherever we jet off to with the proceeds…
Hi there!Thanks for popping in. Five days to go before the Grand Paper/Parchment launch on HOCHANDA on Saturday. Rosie and I are working together. I am doing the early call at 7am Rosie’s doing the Dutch show at 8am I am back in the UK with you at 10am and Rosie’s doing the 2pm UK Show. I was thinking about this all day, wondering whether it would work. Came home early because I had to find out! I wanted to…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in! 6 days to go before we celebrate HOCHANDA’s 2nd birthday this weekend. Where did the time go?? I shall never EVER forget the day we launched the channel. Who remembers? I was the anchor, just hopping around like a loony, from simple demos to interviews on the sofa! It may have been a bit bitty, and the light and sound quality certainly left a lot of room for improvement too! But it was probably one…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. The countdown is on… This time next week Rosie and I will be celebrating Hochanda’s second birthday on TV, and launching a rather superb new Designer Paper pad: Indian Summer. We have all loved the Northern Lights so much, that I’m pretty sure that a new collection of similar but different colourways will be well received. Designed by Yours Faithfullyxxx In fact, we’ve gone one step further, really pushed the boat out, and created the…
Hi there! Thanks for popping in. Have enjoyed a pleasant day off with our good friends Linda and Rob Williams, who are down for the weekend. Looked through the fantastic new tool book which Linda has written, so now that she has Ok’d the layout, we can move forward with production. You just cannot believe what this woman can do with a few needle tools. Blows my mind. Went for a saunter through the Pantiles, and sat outside in the sunshine…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Having some real computer issues today. In fact, my Big Mac has died !! Well, it’s in Apple A&E; hopefully they will be able to resussitate him !!

New and improved, so I do hope you like them!Wait till you see what the team has…
