September Wrap-Up

Well, hello there! Long time, no see! Hope you’re all well. I didn’t plan on taking almost the entire month off but the post-holiday blues are strong and the blogging mojo is low. Not helped by coming from two weeks in glorious 30+ degrees temperatures to what is that awful time of year called Autumn.…

Weekly Wrap-Up (May 5)

May? How is it May? What happened to all the other months between January and May? Where did they go? Speaking of where things went, what happened to Spring? Feels more like Autumn.

Matthew Shardlake, believing himself out of favour with Thomas Cromwell, is busy trying to maintain his legal practice and keep a low profile. But…

Weekly Wrap-Up (April 7)

Bit of an odd week, this one. Lots of laughter, which is always a good thing. But also some stress and worrying and not particularly good news regarding my doggie. An emergency visit to the vet’s brought some relief with painkillers and antibiotics but it’s very much a game of wait-and-see, especially considering her age…
