HollyFest At Drum Castle
My friend Lorna and I took a visit to Drum Castle today for HollyFest, a Christmas market held within this beautiful National Trust For Scotland property.

My Mini-Adventure To London
I have returned from my mini adventure to London! I had such an amazing time catching up with friends I haven’t seen for over 5 years, it felt like we’d never been apart! I flew down on Friday and we had a big catchup into the wee small hours. It’s amazing how each of our…
