Hi there, Thanks for dropping in. Can’t stop long – we overslept and have to head off for Day 3 soon! My old bones are starting to creak now mind.

Earle noticed an older lady in a light blue mac in the tent, and was just saying how he…

Grasp the Nettle

Hi there, Thanks for popping in. Am having a wonderful day today. I knew it would be a good one, when I was still in bed at 10am,  drinking tea and eating cashew nuts. Lying in and not feeling guilty is indicative of being able to switch off ! Well, as much as I – doomed workaholic – can! But there was a point this afternoon, when the noise in my head completely stopped. All the thoughts, forward planning and…

Hi there! Thanks for joining us on our adventures this week. This time last week, I was hanging out in a pretty swanky hotel in New York with Gracie. Today we set off for Glastonbury in our Festivan! Spent the morning packing and getting everything loaded in our little Glastowagon. I packed lots of lovely foody treats, and had a lovely meal lined up for this evening for us two little lovebirds: seared salmon and new potatoes under the stars. …

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. What a lovely sunny day it is! I’m waiting till it cools down before I pack the caravan ready for our road trip tomorrow. Thought I’d have a little inky session, a little down time,  after all the excitement at the Open Days. How about using one of those fab new stencils which Mel designed? There are 5 in the set. You can get them individually, but they are all so lovely, it will be…
