Update!

Well, where did the last eight months go?! I have been meaning to update my blog and at last I am. Since I last posted anything, we have had a busy spring and summer. Autumn is quieter and feels like the time to slow down a bit(!) and reflect on whats been and to plan for the months ahead.
In April, myself and my husband had a lovely holiday in Peurto Pollensa, Majorca. It's a beautiful part of the island and we have been going for a number of years now. We recharge our batteries, walk, read lots and generally have a very relaxing time. We stay at the Hotel Uyal, thoroughly recommended. Not long after this was followed by a surprise invite to an old friends wedding in Versaille, a magical weekend and wedding which I shall say more about later! Another wedding followed, this time our nephew in lovely Oxfordshire. Again, a nice weekend away exploring.
There were also exams, A levels for my youngest daughter and her subsequent foray into the world of employment. My older daughter moved out, begun her PGCE and got engaged! Life is never dull. We are so pleased for them both, however Mum's emotions have been up and down and around like a whirlwind!
We have also made a conscious effort to walk and cycle more and I shall write a bit about where we have been again. In August we snatched a few days away "glam ping" in a pod, more of that again! This was to recover from all the other exertions! Well, that was my excuse anyway!
Looking forward to another wedding on Saturday, this time in the church we got married in 28 years ago and not so far away this time. Hoping the bride and groom will have a fine day and much happiness. Jane x
