This time last year we were booking plane tickets, sorting out rabies jabs, reading guide books, and getting excited about our India / Sri Lanka adventure. I blogged the India trip a while ago and then things got hectic and the Sri Lanka leg got left on the back burner. With this dreary weather I […]
Last week Amber and I headed down to Cornwall for a dose of flowery goodness, to chat all things floral, an hatch a plan or two for 2015 with The Garden Gate Flower Company. We had a fab time, we snipped in the cutting garden and drank buckets tea and super purple soup, and made […]

Happy Birthday to our favourite FIVE year old. Today is all about presents and cake. Back to the emails tomorrow.
As some of you probably know, (I might have banged on about it, just a bit), we have recently got back from nine weeks backpacking in India and Sri Lanka, with the kids. We squodged ourselves in rickshaws, bounced out of our seats at the back of buses, trundled for hours through the night […]
