Sometimes it’s all work… On the house and byre on the land, or writing and marketing my books

But there has to be a balance and I took a week off from everything when my eldest son and daughter came to stay with us.

We walked miles, took a trip to the animal park and talked and relaxed. We saw seals off the Cardigan coast, red kites over our house, butterflies, dragonflies and a kingfisher.

Spending time with family is a perfect way to relax and recharge your batteries, catching up and making plans for meeting up again.
