I was absolutely delighted to read in The News that Father Bob White, vicar of St Mary’s Church in Fratton, where Matt and I got married, has been appointed an honorary chaplain to Her Majesty, the Queen.
Huge congratulations goes to Prince Harry and his wife, the Duchess of Sussex ex-Hollywood actress Meghan Markle, who are now parents to an adorable ‘bundle of joy’.
People often question why Matt and I moved to Catherington when they see what we’re doing with our front and back garden. You see we moved here, to this semi-rural location, for a more countryside-ish lifestyle
We took our 18-year-old niece to the cinema on Wednesday to watch the new horror movie Pet Sematary which is a remake of the 1983 movie of the same name by Stephen King.
Last week, I promised Matt that we would have a relaxing weekend at home – which is rare in our family. It’s always someone’s birthday, so whenever there is a spare break in the schedule we revel in it and so does everyone else.
Anyone who has read my column over the past couple of years will know just how much I love our view. We actually bought our bungalow in Catherington because you can see White Dirt Farm from every corner of our house.
I do recall saying the words ‘never again’ when I booked a big family holiday to Bulgaria last summer to celebrate my uncle Nigel’s 60th birthday. But once again I got lumbered with being the official travel planner for our family.
People laugh at me because I’m a big Neighbours fan. And they can mock but I love nothing better than chilling on a Sunday with a Chinese watching all the week’s episodes in one go.
I was appalled to read the news about the Southampton Football Club fans who made aeroplane gestures at the Premiership match last weekend after it was confirmed that they had found the body of Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala.
I know it’s only February, but isn’t it cold out there? We’ve had such a mild winter up until now but with last week’s brief snow spell the temperature has definitely dropped.
People often make the mistake of assuming that Matt and I have such hectic lives where we’re always swanning about doing something, seeing someone or going out.
I don’t like to jinx myself, but is it me or is the weather rather mild for this time of year? It has been a weird month so far and I can’t put my finger on what it is.
The Golden Globe awards presented a few surprises to say the least. I think everyone was shocked that Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga’s spectacular movie A Star is Born didn’t scoop many awards, even though Bradley Cooper was outstanding in it.
Merry post-Christmas everyone! I can’t believe it’s all over! Well almost… yes, we have New Year’s Eve around the corner, but how can Christmas be over already when it’s only just begun?
