How are we all feeling this Easter weekend? I’ll probably have a managed a bit of mixture of these by the end of it – hopefully more of the egg in the middle at the front. I have mixed feelings about festive occasions. Although I look forward to them I also often feel a senseContinue reading “Happy Easter everyone”

The tardis toilet
There’s a toilet in the park nearby which thankfully, I’ve never had to use. I call it the tardis as it looks a bit space-age. I find it a bit weird and rarely see anyone using it. It’s often out of order and takes a 20p piece, which most people don’t carry with them –Continue reading “The tardis toilet”
Sand flower
I found this photo yesterday when I was looking through my old pictures and it’s one of my favourites. It was taken in the summer a few years ago at a place in Norfolk called Holkham beach. I remember drawing it in the sand with my finger as I sat on a beach towel inContinue reading “Sand flower”
A positive perspective
I was sent the link to this video earlier in the week and felt quite inspired and humbled by it – her positivity and outlook on her life is amazing. It’s helpful to gain this perspective and to appreciate what I do have in terms of the use of my hand. A friend, who isContinue reading “A positive perspective”
Yellow is the colour…
With Easter coming and all the Daffodils out in bloom, it seemed apt to make a video with something pretty and yellow. So the other weekend, when it was warm and sunny, I enlisted the help of my trusted media assistant (my teenage daughter!) to help me make a new Privvi video. I’m running someContinue reading “Yellow is the colour…”
A little encouragement goes a long way…
I’ve always been quite a reserved, measured person, sometimes to a fault, until recently. My recent experiences have made me push myself beyond my comfort zone and reach out more. It’s been good for me, in many ways, including my work. Reading my blog homepage you can see it was my son’s encouragement that ledContinue reading “A little encouragement goes a long way…”
News on my hand op
Although I’ve tried to put it to the back of my mind, it’s time to face the reality of my hand operation. I’ve some time to plan and prepare but I really am going to need to train my left hand – I’ve got about 6 weeks… http://www.privvi.co.uk
Privvi’s first retail outing
Last Friday I dropped my first display unit of Privvi at a local Farm shop. They sell fresh food and have a deli but they also have a small gifts and homewares section. I might stop by and see how the little boxes are doing – it’s funny but I do have an emotional attachmentContinue reading “Privvi’s first retail outing”
The Scream
There’s a painting called The Scream by Edvard Munch and I’ve been feeling like the man in that painting for the last few weeks. We moved our upstairs’ bedrooms around this weekend to accommodate our new neighbour’s baby. Unfortunately my bedroom was adjacent to their wall. We’ve made it a spare room and spent theContinue reading “The Scream”
Mother’s Day present
This is my Mother’s Day present this year which I’m quite excited about. It’s really for all of us but Mother’s Day provided a good excuse to buy it. So the fire pit and the champagne it is. Lovely. My plan is that we light up tomorrow evening, wrap up really warm and sit outContinue reading “Mother’s Day present”
