I nearly decided to have a week off from blogging this week, as I have come down with that feels like my hundredth lurgy of 2024. (It’s probably only the fourth or fifth, but it is only March!) However I will probably be taking next week off as it’s the school holidays and we will be away for a couple of nights. I just hope we finally get some better weather.

At risk of sounding like an intrepid explorer writing a diary that will be found years later alongside my body – Temperatures are regularly below freezing. Continual rain makes the outside world a miserable, inhospitable place. Snow is forecast tonight. I have forgotten what sunshine looks like.

OK so I’m not Scott and this is not the Antarctic, so I may be exaggerating a smidge. I just really need a bit of warmth and sunshine!

A comment on an recent post suggested the Sue Welford series Adventures with George and Timmy/Just George for Brodie after we finish the Famous Five. While looking for something to highlight here I happened across this interview with none other than Sue Welford!
