  • Morning, no alarms set and I slept like a log last night. The air seems so clean here, if that makes sense. Mr T and I looked at the stars late last night and given there's no street lights, ŵell there are no streets, so that's not surprise, the sky was alight with white dots. Beautiful.

    Food shopping done and menu sort of planned. We are off for a long walk shortly - wish I had the hounds - then a quiet night by the fire.

    I'm missing posting but spending is under control and we are think need vs want when passing by any stops.

    Best wishes, Tilly x

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
