Get on and Shine with Holly Honeychurch

Bodkin always looks like he’s forgotten to do something, like turn the gas off or lock the front door.

All dolled up and ready to go. To an 80s concert perhaps? πŸ€” 😎

Sunlit princess

Matcha and turmeric lattes from New England Coffee House. Yuuuum! Felt like I was drinking some Mary Poppins medicine. 😁

Sophie cannae resist the yellow ribbon.

Cotswold loveliness. Bourton on the Water. Rather busy as it’s a real tourist town. The pictures look peaceful but all around me hundreds of people are swarming 😁 . Happy to see the first blossom of the year. Woo!

Actual sun?! Phoebe approves.

Happy days.

The ultimate loafer.

Zen mode activated.

Sophie is the neck nuzzler and matriarch of the trio. She grooms Bodkin and makes sure everyone is ship shape and behaving themselves. She also has a wild side, when it comes to play time.

Meet Bodkin. The master of silly faces and the biggest, chunkiest boy. He’s a bit of a scaredey cat and spends lots of time sleeping on top of the kitchen cupboards, until playtime. πŸ˜‰

She’s the softest, silkiest, smooshiest poppet. 😍

Meet Phoebe, who I call Dotty (cos she’s like a black dot when she curls up). I’m looking after her and her two siblings for the next couple of weeks. I’m beyond excited about it! She’s currently sleeping on my lap. I can feel her purr reverberating through my legs. Yum! πŸ€Έβ€β™‚οΈ πŸŽ‰ 😸 πŸ’ž

Stop the press! England finally stops raining! πŸ€Έβ€β™‚οΈ

Was trying to get a nice photo with Bessie (aka Bin Breath), but I got slobbered instead. Love you Bessie.

The tide has turned and is rolling back into the bay. It’ll be full in a couple of hours. It’s so fast.

A calm lake is a nourishing place.

Made a giant Jaffa cake. Was so yum. Who likes Jaffa cakes? 😍

Sometimes beautiful bleakness is the best cure, especially when combined with the freshest of airs.

Happy New Year! I was elated to make it to the annual Christmas lights extraordinaire in a road nearby. The whole close gets involved in the extravaganza with donations made to Brian House Hospice for children. It was rather emotional. And so gloriously colourful and bright.
