Siyabona (I see you) With evidence that mindfulness actually changes one’s brain positively I reckon we should all practice ‘seeing’ each other when we say hello. Being present actually, Love. Today as Chris said it was wild and woolly. Temperature artists stun yet again with wild seas behind Stirling talks safety, demonstrating how to frolic...

And options are more important with the return of the jellies. To quote Hels, she saw one bigger than her! Glad I missed that one,  but I didn’t see any, we’ll get to the “why not” shortly. Firstly,  there were no complaints about what a glorious morning it is. Henrietta,  Ian and Gayle all smiles...
