Some incredible shots of the Wyre Estuary. Taken by my dear Simon.

The full moon. She rises. The rainbow. She arcs.

Golden hour loveliness.

Boxing Day giggles and the best sticky toffee pudding (with butterscotch sauce) in the land. Nom!

Merry Christmas dear lovelies. 🎄 Hope you’ve had a wonderful time. I’ve had a fab day, with gorgeous new friends, volunteering at a Christmas Day lunch for lots of sweet people in our community. So much joy and kindness swirling around. A pleasure to be a part of! And the mashed potato was epic. 😃 Here’s my dear Simon serving Yorkshire puddings to some lucky folk 😄 Hugs to all. You’re amazing! 💛

Hooray! Bunting and pom poms up before Christmas Day 🥳 Merry Christmas everyone! The biggest hugs to you all. Love Holly 💕🩵🎄💫🕊️🕯️🎵

Dreamy and reflective this Christmas Eve.

What favourite series are you excited to watch right now? I’ve got Slow Horses and Reacher on my list 😀

Golden hour glory and wind so gusty I had to be held in place to take these shots. 😅💨😅

Hey lovelies, hope you’re happy and snug this wintry Tuesday. I had a beautiful experience last night that I wanted to share.

I went carol singing for the first time ever. It was so nourishing. There were many giggles and cheeky cackles of laughter from the singing team as we traversed the neighbourhood by mini bus singing for the elderly and housebound.

On and off the bus we got singing in care homes and on people’s doorsteps. Everyone was so beautiful, kind, positive and friendly. There’s so much spirit here. I’m truly grateful to live in Fleetwood. And seeing the magical Christmas lights all around just made it even more perfect.

I got the giggles at the first stop in the care home because the very first hymn was in Latin and I had no idea of the words or how to pronounce them. It just made me giggle so much; I had to calm down and try and control myself (it wasn’t easy because I had performance excitement 😂). I warbled through it somehow (the English equivalent is ‘O Come All Ye Faithful’) and by the 4th house, I’d almost learnt it all, hooray!

I’m truly in a special place here and love everyone so much already. This is my home and I am absolutely blessed.

Love to you all. 🩵💛🩵

Ps I’ve joined the choir too yippeee! 😄 🎵💗

Love watching seagulls hang out on the breeze. They’re having to work harder today. Flapping more. Sometimes they get to hover with just the right amount of wind. They’re the coolest thing in the sky. Imagine them with sunglasses 😁😎😁

Yay we made it. To the beauty of wide open shores and the glorious scent of the sea. Where starling families sing sweetly all around and friendly people stop to chat about Fleetwood’s rich history. Where Fisherman’s Friends were invented many moons ago. This is going to be a wonderful adventure.

Goodbye little house. Thanks for the memories. Now I’m on the open road. Zooming towards a new life. 😻

What a sky!!

Good morning! Happy Sunday!

Turkish coffee, dear friends, animated Shostakovich and the beautiful buildings of Glasgow. A wonderful last trip.

Glasgow City Chambers is so very grand. Hollywood often use this area, around George Square, as a substitute for New York. Loving the snowflakes on the building too. Very fun. ❄️💙❄️💙❄️

Late night fun fair in Glasgow. How happy does that horse look?!

I first met Winifred when she was in her 90s. We played Mahjong. She told me stories about growing up in Kent. She loved dancing. She was a true lady; polite, elegant with an independent spirit. I am so grateful I can take a little of her with me. A box and a swan. Fly high Winifred. You are missed.

Gotta love a bit of Tasha Cobbs. Fill Me up has me weeping every time. This gospel is taken from a live album and it’s worth letting the song flow into the next - Overflow. It’s so divinely beautiful, powerful and deep. Amen.

One more week of cycling along this lane to get home. Making badgers jump, late at night, as they forage for worms. Smelling the scent of pine from the conifers nearby. I’ve been so lucky to experience such a wild and wonderful place. Soon I’ll have a new home, but I’ll never forget the magic here.

Clouds clouds clouds yay!

Altars are special places. This one of mine has so much magic on it. So much kindness, so many stories. Sacred gifts given to me with love and sweetness. Gifts given to me from people who have left this earthly plane now. Gifts given to me from dear, loving, generous friends. Gifts from holy places. And from Mother Nature. Altars are powerful places to connect back to yourself. And to connect with God.

So much beauty.

Spikey.
