I’ve sat here for hours now – staring at a blank screen – trying to think of ways to re-word the same sentence, but it never gets any easier. This week we sadly said goodbye to Barney, our beloved border terrier. Just look at that face. What a beaut. Over the past few years, writing…

Dear diary, I’m starting to think I should rename my blog “A Life in Lockdown” – because 2020 has been a complete write-off so far! This post contains a fair bit of baking… and when I say baking, I mean watching my mum do all the hard work whilst I sit and eat the scraps.…

Dear diary, We’re not really ‘living’ anymore, are we? We’re just surviving… I’ve been a little bit slack with the isolation diaries recently. So in order to bring you up to date – and keep this post as short as possible – here are a selection of my favourite highlights from the past 3 weeks.…

It’s been another VERY productive week *cough cough* Oops, probably shouldn’t cough actually. So I won’t keep you…
