I actually wrote this blog post just as the war was starting in Ukraine, but it felt wrong even thinking about it. However, I keep getting asked about it now so I'm sharing an update with you.
I’m in high level talks with a couple of mates about driving over with all the stuff and having a laugh getting it to the house. Sorry, I mean planning a work event. I can categorically state for the record that there will be no alcohol or pizza. And if there is, then we weren’t there. But if it later turns out that we were there, then we will not break any rules. And if we do, then Sue Gray will look into it before the police send us a questionnaire and it'll all just fizzle away like the flat Prosecco that wasn't there. Or was. But we certainly won't get fined.
Head over to the blog post and have a read about where we are at.
Starting to think about Woodfarm Tuscany again. It’s been a strange two years. Not sure if it has for you, but I really think this whole pandemic thing has altered our lives a little. Anyhoo, a few ...
It sounds idyllic! So pleased it's finally coming together and most importantly that you're avoiding chintz!! 😜 Can't wait to see the videos & pics. Xx
As I cycle around the lanes of Suffolk, I never take for granted how lucky I am to live somewhere safe.
I can't imagine what it would be like to lose your home, your livelihood, and members of your family or friends because of war. War is the reason I never met my dads parents, yet it seems 'distant', simply because I never got to meet them.
War is what so many people face every day. Some people have never experienced anything else. Can you imagine being born into a war, and growing up in one?
I thank my lucky stars every day that I get to live where I live, do what I do, and meet the people I get to meet. I'm a very peaceful sort. I don't even eat animals. But put me in a room with Putin for five minutes....
I was 9 when WW2 was declared so have a little experience of the fears war brings. OurLondon evacuee and I spent our teenage years together and we formed a foster-sister friendship that lasted well over 70 years. Like you, Carl, I appreciate and give thanks for living in the beauty of a safe environment.
It must be so difficult. The mind boggles as to how they carry on. X
🇺🇦✌️ Slava Ukraini. ✌️🇺🇦
Can’t imagine it.
Here in UK we talk about the price of food and energy, but at least it is accessible. Water too.
I’m so thankful for the roof over my head, the bed I sleep in, and the peace and normality we have.
✌️🇺🇦✌️🇺🇦✌️
I can’t really remember the war, but I often wonder, how I would have got on with your Dad’s parents, if they were anything like his sister, I would have loved them. So thankful to live in peace. 🇺🇦🇺🇦 let’s hope it is over soon
#ThrowbackThursday to 6 years ago. I had a Formula Renault experience, which was just awesome! I was up against a couple of Lamborghinis and a Ferrari. And yes I did whoop them all! Need to get me one of these cars for the sleepy lanes of Suffolk #tbt... See MoreSee Less
