A few more photographs from our trip down to the south coast. Firstly, the grounds of the ruined Battle Abbey - another glorious sunny day: The last day of our holiday was dull and wet, but that didn't stop us exploring.

Holiday Highlights – Part 1
We've been on a family holiday, staying in East Sussex, and exploring parts of Sussex and Kent. The idea for our trip came from a book I listened to via Audible, Treachery by S. J.

A few of my favourite things – Part 1
We all have them, those things we wouldn't be without, although they are probably not the ones that Julie Andrews sings about in The Sound of Music. Some of them will be treasured possessions from childhood, like my friend's 65 year old teddy bear called Edward. Others may be modern gadgets like the Amazon Kindle. … Continue reading A few of my favourite things – Part 1
My Heartfelt Silks Adventure Begins
I'm off to Yorkshire today, to the Skeeby Old Mill Centre, for a workshop with Robbin Firth of Heartfelt Silks.
