Well, today was our scheduled return date from our trip, but we are mighty glad that we decided to make a run for it and got home earlier. Self isolation is tough, I’m sure you’re all agree but it is for the good of all. But here in the first world we need to thankContinue reading “March 30th – A message from Turbo…”

March 28th – Escape, Run for the hills!!
OK, a bit dramatic I’ll grant you, but it was great to get out with the 4 legged children this afternoon. We are extremely lucky to live where we do, and although we love travelling, the countryside right on our doorstep is just stunning. The picture’s below is inspired by the classic film – AContinue reading “March 28th – Escape, Run for the hills!!”

What is “essential” work
March 26th – Behind the scenes heros
Today’s image focuses on our beautiful countryside, and the farming communities that keep food on our shelves. During the Covid-19 crisis, the NHS staff on the front-line rightly get a lot of thoroughly deserved praise and recognition from Government and the media for the fantastic work they do for those poor souls that have beenContinue reading “March 26th – Behind the scenes heros”
March 25th – Another weird day down….
As we close the day, living in this strange new physically isolated world, I hope you’re all well. We are keeping ourselves busy, as having come back from our trip around Europe there is plenty to do. We are very fortunate to have great neighbours, and we have had a few 2-3 meter chats overContinue reading “March 25th – Another weird day down….”
March 24th – Chilling in the spring sunshine
Callie says ‘Hi’ from our back garden. It has been a bright spring day, and she has had a great time playing ball, eating and snoozing in the sun. It will soon be cuddles time, an evening ritual that she insists on. Thankfully, she is completely oblivious to the current Covid-19 crisis, however many areContinue reading “March 24th – Chilling in the spring sunshine”
March 23rd – Social distancing
I’m not sure the 4 legged children have got the idea of social distancing or self isolating…. It would be great to have 2 minutes to sit quietly and use my laptop or phone without aforementioned kids shoving a wet nose in your face, giving you a wash or using you as a bean bag.Continue reading “March 23rd – Social distancing”
March 22nd – Hope….
Today’s image was taken from the sanctuary of our back garden, and with so much doom and gloom in our world at the moment, it made me think about the future. The buds on our cherry tree are symbolic of our situation at the moment. They have been isolated and dormant, but are now showingContinue reading “March 22nd – Hope….”
March 21st – SHOUT
My post this evening is about mental health. We are going through a period of history that is difficult for some people to cope with. Anxiety about the future, fear of losing jobs, financial pressures, isolation. SHOUT is a charity to help people that are having a crisis, but without having to talk, instead theyContinue reading “March 21st – SHOUT”
