Today is my blog’s first birthday and the 12 months since I sat with Jennie in her sitting room setting up the blog seem to have flown by. So much so, that it’s only by looking back at the photos from the past year that I’m reminded of how much has happened and changed in [...]

Looking back at (a sunny) July 2008
I seem to have lost my blogging mojo so I thought I’d post some photos from last year, back when the sun was something warm, comforting and familiar, not a distant memory like it has been this July! Maybe August will see the sun return – and with it, my blogging inspiration!

That’s how it looked last year and I don’t suppose it looks [...]
