Reading the situation

I find it difficult to read how an interview went. It happens that we think it went well and yet it comes to nothing as someone else pips us to the post.

I cannot call it either way and am therefore leaving it open.

Dancing in delight

Hubby got it - the job of a lifetime and the abundance that comes with it.

Our Travels

Greg and I love travelling and exploring.

We are both are South African, but have been living in the UK for 17 years. We have found it a very central location.

I felt the need to document these travels – whether short day trips or epic holidays and encompasses Greg’s recent passion for photography, as well as my love of flora, our combined delight in fauna and the world around us…oh and of course…each other.

Our earliest travels were on a very tight budget, so much of our early holidays with two children in tow, were spent in tents, our faithful ‘old banger’ (with a cheerful backfire or two!) piled high always managing to get us where we needed to be. Despite the budget restrictions, we had fabulous times.

Iceland

Iceland's Blue Lagoon - beautiful isn't it?

 

From Wikipedia:
'Due to the special geological location of Iceland, the high concentration of volcanoes in the area is often an advantage in the generation of geothermal energy, the heating and production of electricity. During winter, pavements near these areas (such as Reykjavík and Akureyri) are heated up.
Five major geothermal power plants exist in Iceland, which produce approximately 26.2% (2010)^[1] of the nation's energy. In addition, geothermal heating meets the heating and hot water requirements of approximately 87% of all buildings in Iceland. Apart from geothermal energy, 73.8% of the nation’s electricity was generated by hydro power, and 0.1% from fossil fuels.^[2]'

Lots of shaking up going on

So much so, that I have no idea where to start. I suppose I can just let you have the bare facts, so here goes...

Wisley Garden, UK

RHS Garden Wisley is a "garden" that goes on forever and forever. I have not uploaded even a quarter of the pictures as there is so much to see, but hopefully this will give an idea of what to expect.

Blessed far beyond anything ever imagined possible

Greg, always manages to make me feel like a Super Goddess Queen.

Haha...sore bum!

Yesterday was a lovely day both weather-wise and activity-wise.

I woke in the morning with a massive headache. One that was on the scale of migraine. I've not had a migraine for about 8 years. Used to get them regularly as a child/teenager and on and off as an adult. But, it did not worry me too much as I did not have the strange shimmering ring-like aura in my vision that comes with it.
