March 2020 Update – read and then Wash your Hands!
Well hello there! Sorry for the lack of posts. Here is my March 2020 update post. As many of you might know, we are in the midst of a global pandemic and crisis. I never thought I would be writing those words on this blog. It all seems very surreal to be honest. I don’t want to go on too much about it, but equally, as this is an online log of my life, it wouldn’t be right if I didn’t talk about it.

Snow Days This week has been an odd one. We had the threat of “The Beast From the East” hitting the UK. We were all on alert for the worst snow in years. It didn’t quite hit us like they said it would, but Weds night the snow came and came and it continued into all day Thurs and some of Friday.
