If the cavalry doesn’t comes over the hill in your darkest hour – you will cope. Listen to other people but believe in yourself. Have noticed, sometimes the sun shines when you least expect it and when you are open to see the sun shining, you notice it shining everywhere.

‘That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history ‘ -Aldous Huxley

Trying not to think about what our politicians are up to but wonder if any of them focus anymore on the real politics of everyday – schools, crimes, NHS… We should feel our country is in a ‘safe pair of hands’ but often feels the opposite – more like they make things up as they […]

On the road

‘Nobody and nothing will stop Russia on the road to strengthening democracy and ensuring human rights and freedoms’. Vladimir Putin (2004) Wouldnt even know or begin to understand whats happening in our country or around us. Its a very unusual time

Thousand Fluffys

trying to get Fluffy to recognize his name, called and a thousand Fluffys looked up – guess he must be called something completely different.

The Olive Tree

Happy chance

Helped my mum sell my Dad’s car finally, last seen driving happily away up the motorway. Wondered if there were such things as ghosts, my Dad would be sitting in the passenger seat making sure everything went well. The funny thing, when the person buying the car and i were putting details in electronically – […]

Flying by plane, not impossible but not easy. Understand implications of travelling. On the way, spent one night camping in the east […]

im sure my fear of heights is about the same as before our trip but driving back down to the village at 1100 m from 700 m higher… just felt so happy. the one thing i took away was trusting the man who was driving the bus

Sunrise in the mountains

Longing to travel for some time but things happening until just threw a few things in the back of our car and went. We rented a chalet on a small farm in the Swiss Alps for couple of nights and travelled through France camping one night and sleeping another in a basic hotel south of […]

Road to Cingoli

‘It’s not yet night at Cingoli’ – ‘‘Ancora non è notte a Cingoli‘’ Driving to Cingoli from Sirolo in June – a windy walled town built on a hill that receives the last rays of the sun when all around is in shadow. Curious about the unknown road. Sometimes – regret taking this road, but […]

Climate Change

Most days since mid May we have woken up to blue skies, gentle breeze and warm evenings turning into cooler nights. In our garden things you dont water like weeds – burn up. We’ve lost a few well loved shrubs but mostly the bigger ones and trees seem to be […]
