    Someone wrote recently about the reason for blogging / who a blog is for. Can’t find it now and want to share with someone 😞 Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    On my way to Durham this morning for a wander inspired by this derivé walk

    YouTube have unintentionally made the best user experience ever. Loving the calm of this, long may it last

    Screenshot of YouTube app with a completely white screen. An alert box reads “Your watch history is off. You can change your setting at any time to get the latest videos tailored to you.” The call to action is a button to update settings.

    “You’re not a perfectionist. You’re insecure about how your best effort will be received.”

    This is one of those quotes that took the wind out of me a little the first time I read it.

    Finished reading: Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin 📚

    I devoured this. It is one of those rare books that’s as good as everyone says it is.

    First full session back at hockey tonight and it’s clear that the brain needs pre-season as much as the body. My decision making was definitely off 🏑

    Holiday highlights #2 - a cheeseboard to rival Christmas with newfound favourite, Alp Blossom

    Large plate holding six large pieces of cheese.

    Well, the better team on the day won. Just a shame we didn’t get the same level of football in the second half after the ref lost all control of the game. Other than that all I can say is I bloody love Mary Earps 🤩 - player of match for me even though on losing side ⚽️

    Switching to ITV for half time to hear what Karen Carney, and hopefully Emma Hayes, have got to say about the game so far ⚽️

    It’s World Cup Final Day! So excited and nervous. No idea how I’m going to distract myself for the next couple of hours until it kicks off ⚽️

    Holiday highlights #1 - with three kids under 10 finding a holiday let with its own play park including the climbing frame pictured, a trampoline and two decent football goals was a big win.

    Wooden climbing frame with slide and tyre swing.

    Just home from a week away with the family. A wonderful mix of outdoor activities, rest and countless games of Yahtzee. Spending the afternoon on the sofa reading in the hope of extending the holiday mood a while longer.
