Purple berries

Hi. Aren’t these amazing? I spotted these soon after the pink berries. Even better in my opinion. I also found some great holly, very festive. Ho Ho Ho. 🎅🏻 I’m pleased to report I am feeling so much better than last weekend. I have a cold but I’m not in a mental slump any more.Continue reading “Purple berries”

And then there were two…

Both my parents are now in the same care home, temporarily at least. My Dad just couldn’t manage at home on his own and has gone for 2 weeks’ respite care. Before you say “oh how nice for them to be together again”, I’ll step in and say you probably don’t know my parents. TheContinue reading “And then there were two…”

The Windsor Waffle Special Lockdown Q & A: Part Two

Hi there. Hope you’re all doing well. For those of us in the UK I hope you’re staying alert, whatever that means, staying home but also going out for work, from tomorrow seeing more people but not really seeing them, driving to nowhere on your own, not staying, coming home. All a bit contradictory ifContinue reading “The Windsor Waffle Special Lockdown Q & A: Part Two”
