Posted on December 9, 2014 by Snippets of a Life

Oops. After all my ramblings you’d be forgiven for thinking I’d run off to actually be someone else. I just don’t know where the last three weeks have gone! I usually find a hint while looking through my photographs. Hmm, … Continue reading →

birthday buttling

Posted on April 29, 2013 by Snippets of a Life

It was my birthday this weekend, and I treated myself to a weekend of cafes, pottering, and not very much else. Pretty much like most other weekends, but somehow more cheerful. First on the list of adventures was a trip … Continue reading →

farewell 2012

Posted on January 1, 2013 by Snippets of a Life

I started 2012 curled on the sofa, two days out of hospital, with a cup of tea and a pile of books. We sneaked into the garden at midnight to wave a sparkler and listen to the fireworks. I ended … Continue reading →

sunshine and grey skies

Posted on March 31, 2012 by Snippets of a Life

What a gloriously sunshiney week it’s been here! I’d almost forgotten it was ever not sunny – which meant this morning’s grey skies came as rather a surprise. Still, it’s the weekend, and that means two whole days of idle … Continue reading →

sunday buttling

Posted on March 4, 2012 by Snippets of a Life

Mmmm – tea and scones on a Sunday morning, how very civilised! I’ve had such a fun weekend. An early Saturday morning run round the park in the drizzle. An art gallery, and meeting an artist friend for lunch. An … Continue reading →
