Apologies for the lack of posts this month – I have a million post ideas but have lacked the drive to make the words flow out from my brain.

I’ve photographed and walked past this… Continue reading Curiosity killed… in Paris! Part deux
Gin-Gin!
The last day of August should have been a beautiful and sunny one, but it coincided with a Bank Holiday so of course it would be rainy and miserable! After a much needed lie-in and a lazy start to the day, I needed to get out of the house. A quick trip to the shops… Continue reading Gin-Gin!
