Having lived in our house for just over a year, I'm so happy to be back in the countryside. Don't get me wrong, I adored living in Cheltenham - it was such a great place to live with amazing parks, brilliant bars, and generally just a beautiful place. I spent so much time in Pittville park… Continue reading Why I Love the Country Life

Five Things Friday
Happy Friday! I'm envious of everyone going on their holidays at the moment - I'd be happy with a stay-cation but with work being the way it is, I'll just have to make the most of my weekends and be grateful that the roads are less busy. Here are five things that have put a… Continue reading Five Things Friday
My Garden in July
Can you believe that this time next week it's going to be AUGUST? Time is absolutely flying by this year - on my way into work the other morning, I actually starting thinking about Christmas presents... The Handsome One has repeatedly told me how much he is looking forward to Autumn and I have to… Continue reading My Garden in July
Five things Friday
Happy Friday! It's been a busy old week and office conversations have revolved a lot around the Royal wedding. I'm looking forward to seeing what Megan will wear; whatever it is, she will look absolutely incredible. Although I do feel bad for all the press around her Dad - there are daily articles on news… Continue reading Five things Friday

It's Friday, again! The sun is still shining (just about), the birds are singing and the weekend is almost upon us. I know it's only been a four-day week, but blimey, I'm absolutely knackered and 100% ready for a glass of something French, cold and made of grapes. We've not got a whole heap planned… Continue reading Five things Friday

When we bought our house last July, amongst all the dust, walls being knocked down and fireplaces being created the window ledges were full of pots with seeds. I just couldn't wait to start growing my own vegetables and flowers, much to the delight of the… Continue reading The Progress of a Novice Gardener

It's Friday, it's a bank holiday weekend and it's sunny - how could you want for anything more? I've been signed off work this week due to having a viral infection and laryngitis, which has really knocked me about but I finally feel like myself again and by feel like myself, I think a glass… Continue reading 5 things Friday
Spring, where did you go?
As I sit here with laryngitis, feeling rather sorry for myself, rain pouring down, I'm wishing for sunny spring to reappear to make me feel better. And not only that, the sun will give everything in the greenhouse a boost! It was only a couple of weeks ago that I was sat outside, exposing my… Continue reading Spring, where did you go?
The Perfect Start to Winter
I'm sure you may be sick of seeing and hearing about the snow, but I cannot get enough of it! Funnily enough, I'm actually writing this post as I sit on train and try to thaw my frozen toes as the water has got through my very impractical boots. However, I still love it. There's… Continue reading The Perfect Start to Winter
5 things I’m up to this weekend
Happy Friday everyone! For some reason I'm extremely excited about this weekend, which has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that our wood burner has been installed and the fridge is full of my favourite wines and beers. Can I just say it is full, but I'm not the only one that will be… Continue reading 5 things I’m up to this weekend
