Week 29 of the year has meant it’s school holidays time. Everyone’s been on tenterhooks because of things opening up more but cases still rising. Supposedly ‘Freedom Day’ although we all know that it’s not really freedom day. Masks no…

Project 52 2021 week 27 – spring onions
This week’s been a mixed up one. From sunny hot weather to dreary, to lots of sport, and over busy work. I don’t think that’ll be changing for a couple of weeks until my event and various webinars are done….
