Today we went to a beach that we haven’t been to for several years. We’ve always liked it. One of the last times that we went was after a massive summer storm and the sea was really cold. Luckily today it was relatively warm. Whilst we were there I had a phone call from myContinue reading “A picnic and swimming in the sea”

I am about to start pattern testing for a woman in Australia. This time it’s a sweater dress. I had planned to buy the yarn from a shop in Quimper. Part of our holiday had been arranged around going there. When we arrived at the shop this morning I discovered that they are on holidayContinue reading “The greatest plans…”

I had planned to cookContinue reading “And just a few more blackberries!”

Today we have been out and about picking blackberries. A future vlog will demonstrate the making of blackberry and apple jam. That will be next Friday. We enjoyed foraging for the fruit to go in the jam. The dogs enjoyed blackberry picking. They’re not particularly helpful, particularly given that both of the labradors were eatingContinue reading “Foraging”

Today I recorded this week’s vlog. It was much more challenging than last week’s. I was having to be in two places at once! I am now having to send it to my younger son who is editing for me. This week’s vlog will go live at 5pm Paris time. I will be discussing Mindfulness,Continue reading “In front and behind the camera!”
