When I’m 64

Posted on March 19, 2012March 19, 2012 by Amy

So what would you both like to do, seeing as it’s Dad’s birthday on the same day as Mothering Sunday? Ok. Advice on tree hugging can be found here.

Connect four

Posted on March 12, 2012March 12, 2012 by Amy

A happy littering of serendipity has befallen me lately. This year so far I am back in touch with at least four people that I haven’t spoken to in years, and it’s been truly lovely to catch up on all the news and latest plans for cars/babies/extensions/holidays/hair do’s, and another opportunity to extend my straw…

Out with the old, in with some more

Posted on March 2, 2012March 2, 2012 by Amy

It’s quite unfortunate that ever since we moved house last October, our old possessions seem be on a mission of self destruction. It started with the bathroom mirror, a lovely round one with nobbles around the edge which regrettably left the windowsill one morning, under it’s own steam, and came to a messy end on…

Spring is springing

Posted on February 29, 2012February 29, 2012 by Amy

At last it’s starting to feel like spring has sprung. It’s been a manky grey this week, but I’m glossing over that and feeling rather cock-a-hoop that I have spotted snowdrops, crocuses and bluebells beginning to emerge from their winter hidey hole, and the world has taken on that comforting warm, little bit like when…

So this is what happened…

Posted on January 23, 2012January 24, 2012 by Amy

In approximately a week’s time my beloved and I were set to pack our lives into suitcases, give our house keys to some select strangers in return for rent money, and move to the United States of America. Boston, in fact. One however can not always foresee the visa application process not following its intended…

Playing in the Potting Shed

Posted on June 7, 2011June 7, 2011 by Amy

I am at the moment very privileged to be working with the extremely talented Emma Lappin, and despite being the subject of much renovation, last weekend I was allowed in the ‘Potting Shed’ to see where the magic happens! Emma is quite cutting edge in her approach to floristry and occasionally employs the services of resident stunt…

New

Posted on February 17, 2011February 17, 2011 by Amy

Things are changing around here, and to coincide the blog is having a bit of an overhaul. So far this has involved changing the template to incorporate a fabric chicken and other random object d’art, but it’s a start. This morning I woke up to find my euphorbia – my favourite plant – has decided…

Simple joys

Posted on July 17, 2010July 17, 2010 by Amy

I have a car. Not a very big car but I love it for the simple fact that it means I can go anywhere I want, whenever I want, and I miss it dearly when it occasionally its checked in at the car doctors. Unfortunately this has been a little bit too frequent of late…

Mrs.

Posted on June 8, 2010June 8, 2010 by Amy

Well, we did it! **** It still intrigues me as to the number of ways in which Neil and I differ from each other and yet still manage to coexist in abundant happiness. I for example and as (in Neil’s humble opinion) display reckless abandonment of crockery in the dishwasher and have no concept of…

This is (almost) it!

Posted on April 17, 2010June 8, 2010 by Amy

This is  (almost) it! In less than 3 weeks I shall be married. In less than 3 weeks I shall be wearing a shiny ring, will have probably drank far too much champagne, will have danced my first dance with my betrothed, will have executed on several occasions my ‘wedding smile’ which I have almost…

About

Hi, I’m Amy. I love the outdoors, blowy walks, tractors, cups of tea and sturdy hugs. I’ve been writing random musings for more than 20 years in an attempt to figure out ‘what it’s all about’. I still don’t know. This could be a very long blog.
