I'm taking part in Greenthumb's photographic scavenger hunt again. I do enjoy putting words into pictures, but oh my goodness this month has gone quickly! I didn't manage to get them all.

I was pleased when I first read that Jane and Louisa's photo an hour was going to be held on my birthday. And then I started to worry that my birthday might seem rather boring. I've already celebrated with a family BBQ back in July, we decided to have it then so Andy could be there, he's currently MIA in a cloud of...
It's my birthday today. I'm 40. Yep, the BIG FOUR-O. I'm feeling OK about leaving my thirties, I can't see any point in freaking out about it. I can't stop time.

I opted for a tote bag, which I then used as a day bag while we were away, but I could've done with something a little bigger. I...
It's been nearly two months since we visited Zurich for our honeymoon. It's a beautiful place, one I'd highly recommend visiting. We stayed at The Dolder Grand, set high in woodlands over looking the Alps and down to the Limmat river, which was stunning. Waking up and looking out over this scene was truly breathtaking. Each night we'd return to our room to...
