UK-based, in the small market town of Hexham, Northumberland.

Wife to dedicated techy @[email protected], mother to three teenagers of varying levels of awesome-oddness. And a human slave to my old beagle, Bronte.

I invigilate exams and run a tiny poster business that I plan to grow.

Into #Books, #Art, #Dogs, #Science, #FutureTech and slightly obsessed with #Genealogy & #FamilyHistory.

Seeking inspiration.

I started my hike along the Hadrians' Wall path yesterday. We covered 14 miles in warm, windy weather from Bowness On Solway to Carlisle. I enjoyed the great scenery and managed to ignore my sore feet! I found the headstone for my 4th great grandfather at St Michael's Church in Burgh by Sands. Walking in the footsteps of my ancestors...

I visited the amazing Biscuit Factory in Newcastle today. There are so many talented artists on display there! This one by Emily Page struck a chord with me. It's titled Portrait of The Artist. The guy in the picture has a strong resemblance to my dad, who passed away twenty years ago.

So this happening tonight. Introducing my teenage son to the joy of Jaws.

Happy New Year from Hexham!

The view from my window is pretty beautiful this morning.
I am grateful I have a view.
I am grateful I have a home.
I am wincing at how much it is costing to heat it right now.

It's a dramatic sky that is both clear and cloudy over Hexham tonight. Icy days ahead.

My hometown Hexham lost its title of happiest place to live in the UK today. But we carry on regardless. Tonight, it was Ignite, the festival of flame event, at the historic Hexham Abbey.

From earlier this week. A walk along Tyne Green in Hexham. The path lies between the Tyne river to the left and golf course on the right.
Stunning at this time of year.
