Norfolk Tulips! We visited Norfolk Tulips this year for the first time! I was very organised and put a reminder in my phone for the minute they were to go on sale. I had an idea of the date I wanted (Gram’s birthday) and I went in prepared. I was lucky and got through straight away so that we could all go and visit and help raise money for their charity while getting to take pictures in the fields. It’s […]

Dearest Jimmy – You Are Thirteen! Dearest Jimmy, You are thirteen – a teenager, wow! I am bowled over that 13 year’s have slipped by and you’re now a big strapping lad who plays rugby and cricket and absolutely throws his all in to every sporting endeavour always. Watching you on the rugby pitch, literally giving it your all despite being smaller than most of the other players, fills me with both pride and worry. It’s been a year since […]
