2412.03 LIGHT AT THE END OF THE BEGINNING

In my previous post I mentioned a few things about the last few months which have been a whirlwind of challenges, testing our resilience as a family. From unexpected family issues to car troubles and a broken television, life seemed to conspire against us.

2409.16 THUNDERCLIFFE

This post has been in limbo for such a long time. Stress, family & work issues and illness have held me back. Now this post is a little redundant as it was supposed to be about somewhere I visited back in September. 

2409.16 FIRST HOLIDAY

Because Rags couldn't come along in May we organised a return (which we took last week). This makes this trip my Grandson's first proper holiday. I'm proud that his first holiday was in a place that is so special to all of us.

2409.02 THE WEDDING

On the 19th of August my eldest daughter, Harley, was married to her long term partner, Josh. The day was the culmination of months of organisation by Harley mainly which came together for a magical and emotional day.

2407.12 THE GENERAL ELECTION 24 - CRUNCH TIME

I'm writing this post with the benefit of hindsight but the lead up was very stressful for me. I know the opinion polls ended up being correct but polls have been wrong before. 

2407.05 SILVER

On the 3rd July twenty five years ago we both said "I do", and so began our story.

2406.08 FINDING CERNUNNOS

Have you ever had a deity practically knock on your digital door? I think I might have. I think Cernnuous has been making himself know to me. Why do I think this? Indeed, who is Cernnuous? Before this I'd never come across the name but I already knew who he was.

2406.02 ATREUS

I'm a week behind in announcing this, but if you follow my social media you'll already know what's coming...

2405.11 THE USUAL POSTCARD

Our happy place... so glad to be back here. This time it's for our birthdays, especially Morticia's (as mentioned in my previous post). It's a mental unwind, a spiritual retreat and that's the reason we return year after year - not to mention some great friends. 

2405.06 SHE'S FIFTY

The most important person in my life hits a milestone birthday this week and we celebrate with a special trip to our special place.
