Taken on the first time I have seen my Mum (it’s her garden for those of you not familiar!) in what was then 12 weeks. I have to say I think our Expat years gave us training in not seeing friends and loved ones for months at a time, but it was so […]
Sunday Photo – Apprentice Gardener
Hampshire Sunset
I love this time of year, and I love that we have this at the end of the road…

Sunday Photo – Reading Time at the Zoo
I don’t tend to feature my kid’s faces in the blogs, but as they are not directly looking at the camera, and one of them is partially obscured by a giant Lego book…. I think the image sums up a general feeling of what it’s like in lockdown for quite a few kids in the […]

Sunday Photo – Mother’s Day
Possibly the strangest Mother’s Day yet, despite my ex-pat years giving me good training on missing out on things like this. We have to stay in though to curb this thing, so it’s necessary. We will just have a much bigger celebration later in the year (a little like Mr R’s big Birthday on […]
