Packed It, Booked It…

Hello, dear reader!

And welcome to a lovely and very sunny day in West Yorkshire.

Yes, it appears that spring has well and truly sprung (at least for now). The sky is blue, the breeze is cool, and all is right with the world.

Well, apart from on a couple of fronts.

Settle Down

Hello, dear readers

Quite often, Mark will ask me to do the blog because he's not too well, but this time …. I volunteered, because I've had an exciting week (well more exciting than Mark’s anyway).

Home & Away

Hello, dear readers

You join me on a sad day. A tragic day. My heart is broken. I don’t know how, or even if, I’ll survive.

You see Tina, the love of my life and my super-spiffy wúnderieifey is leaving me.

For two whole days!

Cover Story

Hello, dear readers

And welcome to what promises to be a relatively busy week in a relatively busy month.

March is always a busy one, to be fair. There are certain milestones within it, certain immovable feasts (plus one that’s strangely fluid, thanks to relying on religious dating). This year that is something that has been expanded upon by circumstance.

I’ll explain.

And Be Damned!

Hello, dear readers

There comes in every venture, every life, a handful of moments that hold the seed of real and lasting change.

I think this week has seen one such instance, because it’s happening; it’s really and truly happening!

Before we get on to that mysterious ‘it’ I’ll take the opportunity to put down in black and white my progress with my stated aims for the year.

Over Sight

Hello, dear readers

It's me again - the direct result of a promise made when Mark was being extra nice to me over the weekend.

Joking aside, I have had a slightly interesting week, apparently much more interesting than my ever amazing husband.

Eye Chair

Hello, dear readers

It’s always best when things are fresh in the memory, especially when you have a memory like mine.

It means that details don’t get blurred or distorted by the passage of time. It means minor inconveniences don’t get blown up into full-blown soap operas, complete with a supporting cast of washed up light entertainers and returning characters best remembered from around thirty years ago.

Which is lucky, really.
