Me ... and family :)

Welcome to my blog. I'm an erratic blogger - sometimes I write loads and sometimes I disappear for days on end. I write about anything that comes to mind - sometimes about life, sometimes about marriage, sometimes about food and sometimes just about things that have wound me up!

I'm married to Tim (delivery driver and gorgeous musician), have 2 daughters, live on the south coast of the UK and have 1 aging cat (Hemmingway or Hemmy for short). I love reading, yoga, crafts, baking, daft old comedies, music and teaching.

Jersey

Well, I'm tired but started playing around with some holiday photos and Moviemaker .. mucking around with titles and stuff and made a holiday video.

This is of some of my favourite still photos from the week which I put together and added a soundtrack. I used Beth Rowley's Sweet Hours which we heard over and over on the radio as we drove around the island and which I will now forever associate wth that holiday. Amazingly, it fits just so well with the pictures and the overall mood - the hours did go by quickly!

We were amazingly lucky with the weather and only had one major downpour over the week (at least during the day, it did rain at night) and one day when it was sunny and warm but absolutely blew a gale. In the video, you'll see a picture of a lighthouse - Tim took this while being pinned to the tailgate of the car by the wind *laughs*, it was hysterical. The rest of the week was wonderfully warm and sunny and we sat by the pool and went to the beach and for long walks. There's not much else I can say about the week - I'll just let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy!
