If you’ve known me for a while, you know I love the skies. The may not be evident of late, with my posts of cakes and flowers and planners dominating my feed, but it’s true. I don’t travel anymore (hardly at all) but I used to travel almost every week, sometimes multiple times each week,…

I promised I would be back with RegularRandom this week and I almost didn’t make it. As I mentioned in my previous post, I’ve been sick with the flu (or something) and it has been quite nasty. I’ve spent my whole weekend in a pretty drowsy state. But tonight, I did pop out onto the…

Just a quick post tonight. Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I feel a bit silly for being a sap last night, but also very loved reading all your comments. I think I have a little bug, and today my voice is fading a little, much to my friends’ amusement. I like these colour…

I was having a lovely coffee break looking through all the posts from today and came across today’s brief. I wondered what on earth I would use when I looked up and saw the beautiful pattern of clouds all around me. I am at QEII Hospital today, visiting customers and talking about molecular biology, genetics…
