And so we reach the penultimate day of January, the month seems to have melted past my conscience!

Finally, after a week of trying, Amazon have passed the Gaby - Girls, Girls, Girl? paperback for retail!

thought folks might be interested in this offer from Lulu

Its been a productive day today,

Just a quickie

Contrary to popular belief

I present to thee, a new Gaby chapter and the 2nd edition of Gaby Book 5!

its a bit previous, but Happy New Year to everyone!

Its been a tiring few days for Maddy but finally the 'big' day is here!

On Sunday i went to see the GC, well this week is all about the kinder yes? We had a great afternoon, over far too soon, largely because we had to get back to be ready for Monday.

We'll start today with Smokin’ the Chimney, the thrilling conclusion to stage 3 of the Ryedale 3 day event. As you might expect by now, there is drama from the outset, Team Apollinaris certainly don't have it all their own way! I've included a couple of my own photographs to give you some idea of the terrain that faced the youngsters and as is always the case, they don't do anything I wouldn't do myself.

As promised,

I'm not sure what I feel about Christmas this year what with one thing and another.

Amazon, bless their little cotton socks,

So here we are, as promised, a full set of links for the Gaby Heads South trilogy.

So, here I am, back in Brunel and Middlemarch country after my oh so brief sojourne to visit family and friends up in GOC.
