Lyme Regis next week.

I vaguely remember this from my childhood and music onb the (interminable) Poncohontas 2 has reminded me but i can’t remember enough of the words to google it. “Land of the (da da daa) home of the (beaver?) der dum de dum de dum.. wander at will… blue ridge and rocky shore, i will return […]

Excellent day. I’m REALLY enjoying forcing myself to be liberated from the computer, it didn’t go on till 3pm today, and that was only long enough to download a bead order for local delivery.

Take a deep breath my friends… and enjoy… and then perhaps here. I dunno… think i could make it work? 😉

Oh my girls are getting big. Another week or 2 and Ammi and Fran will be 3 and 7 – gulp. And i stand no chance of having anymore, Max has made that very clear. My head is saying next time to me, but there isn’t going to be a next time. I know that […]
