After a hectic weekend we finally arrived home on Monday night laden with bags, lots of christening presents people had very generously given to Athena, plus some 1st wedding anniversary cards for us.

I’m resurrecting my Linkography posts, which are a bit of a selection of snaps, a brain dump of thoughts and/or what I’ve been up to and normally some links to other websites/blogs posts etc that took my fancy and I think the world should see! Basically a catch up post… I’ll get on with… Read More
