Bonjour! Thanks for popping in today. Have had a great Monday here in Bretagne, hanging out in the garden.

It is a perfect opportunity to focus on the words I am writing, and expel the demons in my head. Better out than in, as they say! You know that expression, “Curiosity killed the Cat” ?

Hi there! Thanks for popping in, although it is very late, but just a quicky before I hit the hay. What a day, what a day!! Many thanks to all who came along to Crowborough.  It was a pleasure for me to be there –  not like work at all. Thank you to a brilliant team of demonstrators: Sam Crowe, Paul Church, Maria Slimms,  Dee Paramour and Sally-Ann Hanes. Thank you to our friends Heather and Len,  and all the…
