Santorini summer day 2

Well I said my goal was to do nothing and we managed it well. There was lots of lounging around on a sunbed,in the shade of a lovely palm unbrella. Lots of swimming in the sea, or should I say floating around. Of course I shreiked like a girl when I first got in and…

Santorini summer

Hello from the very sunny shores of Santorini,Greece. I am writing this from the beach where I have just had my first dip in the sea My version of paradise. This is Ian,my hubby and I’s third visit and we are staying in a different apartment yet again and I must say Nostos studios is…

I Did it!

  Well, here we are at last. Finally I have achieved my latest giant goal and created a new Personal Best for a Marathon! My 2nd Brighton marathon resulted in me finishing in 5hrs 23 minutes, knocking a massive 19 minutes off of my previous time. To say I am thrilled is an understatement. Who…
