A day full of coffee! I had lots of great conversation with several great people. But the biggest highlight was a proper chat with my dad. He listened to me and responded like I’m a grown-up and not just a little girl.
Well, this is it… The day that makes a farce of my ‘365′. The anomaly of the 29th of February which means that I should actually call this my ‘366′.
A somewhat unobtrusive day where I enjoyed the simple pleasure of a cup of coffee in escape from the rain, a chance to propose (in jest I [...]

(The intrepid ‘explorer’ returns - heralding feverish blogging to catch up…!)
Sunday. Bit of a hectic one this week with preparation and packing for the conference. But it was still good…
Led praise in church this morning which was fun and it all went well - its great when you have musicians who can just follow your [...]

Marmalade on toast. Yum!
An unexpected visit from a good friend spent in drinking coffee, discussion and at times companionable silence!

What a day!!! This one’s easy!
So, Noondy and I hop on the cross-border train and have a great chin-wag up until Newry. And now, I’ve always felt strongly that people a little further along the road of life have much to teach and so, when two forty-something women joined us at our table we learnt [...]

An evening with friends…
Popcorn, chocolate and lashings of Stardust and a healthy dose of Take That over the credits. A feast of fajitas and then lazing on the sofa with coffee and cookies.
Somehow I think this morning’s second swim this week is rather cancelled out by the junk. But today - I didn’t care.

Coffee and cinnamon scones in my favourite coffee shop (high praise from someone who does that sort of thing on a daily basis).
I also heard about one of those things that goes on in our world that we are ignorant of but that could have endless chuckle-factor. One of my students told me about Sealand - [...]

So, in my church they have a coffee break in the middle of the service. Great idea. Not so great idea is throwing your own coffee over two thirds of your lovely bright pink top and trousers. Sorry - just the top was bright pink. Not the trousers. That would be ridiculous. Now, obviously that’s [...]

Talking over coffee (and chocolate eclairs - the cream kind) in a warm cosy kitchen with an older friend. Isn’t it funny how many 365 posts revolve around food??!?
Significant.

I know its still early, but I’m not sure anything today can top the feeling of booking flights to France! And at a bargain price too!!!
I’ll be going back to Marseille (where I lived on my year out) in January. I’m gonna climb up to Notre Dame de la Garde and look over the city, [...]
