So,the time had come. Work was done, and my driver had collected me from my office in Dubai to drive me across the border to Oman, destination – The 5 star, and stunning Six Senses resort in Zighy Bay. Now, as a bit of background, I had booked this only 8 days before I arrived, desperateContinue reading “Oh my…. Oman “

Kit kat rules….
Taking a break…. Hey all, sorry it’s been a while. Thought I would get back to blogging after a tricky time, and plus I miss updating you all (mainly for selfish therapeutic reasons!) It’s been a year since I went back to work, & what a challenging year it’s been. I’m not going into theContinue reading “Kit kat rules…. “
The Big One. 40…….
The big one. Now now, not that kind of blog, but the one about me turning 40. Or halfway as someone bluntly put it! 😁 For me it’s a time to reflect back, draw a half time analysis, and go into the second half all guns blazing. I’d summarise the first half as a bitContinue reading “The Big One. 40…….”

Moves and shakes……
2015. I’m so excited. New year isn’t something that normally gets me leaping around like the duracell bunny. I usually dread it. I don’t mean New Years Eve, where we all get dressed up, drink obscene amounts of booze, & spend the day after eating the Christmas leftovers and lazing around (just me?!) promising ourselvesContinue reading “Moves and shakes……”
Here we goooo….
2014. What a year. If i look back and report back my comments would be “needs significant improvement from January to July, but “much improved” from August to now. The first half of the year saw the loss of Dad. To watch a loved one die in your arms, take thier final breath with uContinue reading “Here we goooo….”
