Helped put a wine fair together by the river and thanks to the work and energy of so many lovely people (and a good bit of 30 degree sun) it turned out better than we could have hoped. Quite a day.
Pair of maniacs successfully relocated across the globe during global pandemic. We can’t see the sea anymore, but the new flat does have improbably tall ceilings, so these guys are fine.
Our daughter (!) Marlow, turned up this week. Her brother can’t believe his luck that he guessed correctly what was in the belly. Her mother is a super hero who I couldn’t be more proud of. Props to the team at Airedale for the deep care & enthusiasm. We’ll forgive them the cold baked potato.
