Tonight’s tea…a delicious lasagna. H says it’s her favourite meal that I make ❤. I make it all from scratch…even the bechemal sauce. It’s really not a difficult meal to make (I did cheat a little tonight and used frozen onions and mushrooms to save a little time) and it’s so filling. 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹 🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽 #food […]

I’m posting this photo I made at @chesterzoo back 2013 in recognition of International Cheetah Day. My favorite of all the big cats these long-limbed sprinters are the most vulnerable of them all and There are less than 10,000 left in the wild and their numbers keep shrinking. The animals are incredible and their demise […]

Yesterday we went to get our Christmas tree… It’s not a difficult task for us as we have a fantastic garden center close by us and they stock a selection of hand-picked trees in a variety of sizes. I was tempted this year to go for a living tree that we can keep in the garden throughout the year and bring […]

No run for me this morning and probably no run today at all. Yesterday I had some pain in my hip and while it’s probably nothing I have to be careful in case it’s linked to my rheumatoid arthritis. I’ve had hip pain before and it’s cleared up with a bit of rest so hopefully […]

Christmas starts with the Christingle service at our local church. Until we moved here 3 and a half years ago this wasn’t a tradition for us but this was our 4th time and we love it. Christmas has officially started! . . #christmas #christingle #church #christingleservive #festiveseason #christmashasstarted http://ift.tt/2jIIErl

Visiting Grandad…. This photo breaks my heart 💔 because our youngest two girls never knew my Dad as he passed before they were even born. They also never knew H’s mum and dad either and the older two don’t remember them. I miss him most at Christmas as he used to make sure we all […]

So last night H and I went off the Harrogate to see @collabro in concert. It was the last night of their tour in fact and it was a fabulous night. It seems a long time since I saw them in Scarborough as Cliff Richard’s support act back in June when I took my mum. […]
