It’s been a funny old year too! Lots of happenings not happening… Lockdown no lockdown, mask no mask, stay in go out … Continue reading Goodbye 2021, Hello 2022

Christmas, food and all the bits that go with it!
Each year I buy a tonne of Christmas magazines. You know which magazines I’m talking about… the ones that promise you the perfect Christmas.

A little bit of style is all you need…
I guess as my little slice of the internet is about my life and style I ought to put my money where my mouth is and write a post on said style bit.

A little catch up…
A huge heartfelt 'I've missed you all, I've missed writing and sorry for not being about much'. I feel this is like being at church in the confessional, "Dear father, it's been 8 months since my last confession...".
