Postcards from Wells-Next-The-Sea


Wells-Next-The-Sea, Norfolk

I’ve only visited Wells-Next-The-Sea once before and liked it straight away as it reminded me of Cornwall.   It is on the beautiful coast line of North Norfolk and is a complete contrast to Cromer, its neighbour, a short drive down the coast. Wells-Next-The-Sea is an area of outstanding natural beauty and I can certainly see why. […]

Review: The One Plus One by JoJo Moyes


Jo Jo Moyes - The One Plus One

It seems I can no longer read a book without thinking about the underlying message.  My second Jo Jo Moyes book was not quite as powerful as the first but I still very much enjoyed getting to know the characters and learning from them.  The One Plus One had been recommended in my bibliotherapy session with […]

Postcards from Cromer


Cromer Pier, Norfolk

In all the years I’ve been visiting Norfolk I’ve never been to Cromer.  So I took the opportunity to visit on our recent short break. It is clear that Cromer is more of a traditional type of seaside town, but it housed a few gems. We met with Katy, from Fabulous Food Finds, for lunch.  I […]

Enriching Your Life


Wells-Next-The-Sea

I’ve always tried to live an enriched life doing things that I love whether by myself, with friends or family.  I recently wrote about creating the life you want and to me having an enriched life is to live the life you love. We only get one life and I firmly believe we should make it the […]

Creating My Bucket List


Packwood House, Warwickshire

I’ve heard quiet a few people this year talk about having a bucket list and until the other day I just had a list of things I would like to do.  The more I think about these the more I realise this is my Bucket List.  Everyone’s bucket list will be different from the extreme […]

Precious Moments


The capacity to measure time is one of the most important human achievements.  From clocks to calendars our being is governed by the passing of time.   As a child I remember the days, weeks, months and years seemed to go on forever, but as an adult I know how quickly time can pass. I […]

Upton House and Gardens, A Birds Eye View


I do like to explore and have new experiences, but sometimes going back to a place that you’ve enjoyed is just as joyful.  This is exactly how I felt last week when I made a return visit to Upton House and Gardens.  Situated in the beautiful Warwickshire countryside this elegant 1930s country house is one […]

The Perfect Life – creating the life you want


The dream. The Prefect Life. We’ll have all had dreams of how we hoped our life would turn out. What might be a perfect life for one person won’t be for someone else.  We all go about our day to day lives and most of the time not particularly analysing them.  However, at key times […]
