5th May 2022 Wondering what to write about this week! I’ve told you about my favourite things in music and movies but I don’t think I’ve covered books, so far. Which is strange, considering I’m now a ‘published author’. You would think that books would be high on my list of blog topics, but I…… Continue reading The Book Stops Here

You Must be having A Laugh
28th April 2022 What makes you laugh? I’m a big fan of comedy – like the old adage says: “Laughter is the best medicine”. I truly do believe that. Nothing makes me feel better than being able to have a really good laugh, whether it’s with friends, or watching a comedy film, watching stand-up on…… Continue reading You Must be having A Laugh
A Moving Experience
21st April 2022 I have lived in many places in the UK. I started in Barrow, of course, but I don’t really remember the house move from 6B Barque Street to Brighton Street, which remained the family home for the next 50-plus years. My next move was leaving home at 17 after a terrible row…… Continue reading A Moving Experience
That Was The Week That Was
14th April 2022 Normal service is now resumed! I’m back from roaming and home again in Sowerby Bridge after a very hectic last week in Barrow in Furness. Sadly, my lovely sister Mel has also returned home to Fuerteventura and I’m missing her already. We had a blast – lots of talking, laughter and memories…… Continue reading That Was The Week That Was
Watch this Space…
Hello everyone! Sorry, but there will be no blog this week or next week, due to my being incredibly busy with the publication and launch of Monday is Washing Day Book One – Grace: Duty and Responsibility. As you probably are aware, the publication date for the above is 4th April, next Monday, so Team…… Continue reading Watch this Space…
Simply the Best
24th March 2022 This week I am writing about and dedicating this to my sister, Mel Royle. I’m sitting here right now, waiting for her to arrive from Fuerteventura, where she lives with her husband, Steve, and their four dogs, Daisy, Nutty, Sasha and Dixie. She is flying into Manchester and then catching a train…… Continue reading Simply the Best
The Fat of the Land
17th March 2022 “Close your mouth girl! You look like a hippo in a pond!” (I intend to use initials instead of full names for the protagonists of this blog, as some of them are still very much alive and kicking, so to avoid any embarrassment, on my part at least, I’ll be discreet.) The…… Continue reading The Fat of the Land
With This Ring
10th March 2022 In the words of the Gilbert O’Sullivan song: “Something that begins with ‘M’ and ends in ‘alas’… that’s Matrimony”. This week I’ve been thinking about weddings and marriage. I’ve had a go a couple of times, and not done too well at it, but it works for some people, I know. What…… Continue reading With This Ring
I’ve Got The Music In Me
3rd March 2022 Last week I wrote about films – today I thought I’d tell you about my musical tastes. I’ve already mentioned in previous blogs that I have been known to warble occasionally in my various guises as schoolgirl, chorister, performer and backing singer. It’s true that I do love to sing, but these…… Continue reading I’ve Got The Music In Me
Lights, Camera…Action!!
24th February 2022 I love a good film, don’t you? There are genres that I avoid if I can, but mostly I’m happy to watch all kinds. There are some movies that I’ve watched over and over again, some even hundreds of times. Others I’ve seen once and that was enough, even though I might…… Continue reading Lights, Camera…Action!!
