Well, how nice for Valentine’s day, breakfast in bed and we remembered why we designed such a large bedroom and we are able to lie in bed looking out over the Med! The sun shining too.

For some reason I started looking through the old websites of this diary. Probably remembering when we designed the house and why we designed it the way we did. We certainly have done a lot in the last 12 years. Would we ever build again? My answer is a definite NO! It’s all been an experience but now we are 12 years older, an experience we don’t want to repeat.

Consequently our walk was later than usual. There were lovely purple flowers all over the footpath, I think they are sand crocus. If anyone believes differently, please let me know. I have three Mediterranean Wild Flower identification books but I don’t always get them right!

Walking back it was really warm, T shirt weather. That will teach us to go later. The walk wasn’t too bad but walking back up our steep drive is the killer. I wonder how long it will be before we get a Stannah lift fitted. Ha ha.


I just couldn’t resist this one…..thanks Anna!

The good news is Zoe Ball will be doing the breakfast show on Radio 2 next week, not Chris Evans! I get so bored with Chris Evans talk about cars all the time, some of us are not the slightest bit interested.

Mal cooked a delicious meal in the evening.

Well, the joint statement is announced at last……….

Beautiful weather in the morning and then the storm started with about 10 minutes torrential rain and thunder.

And after the rain……………………..
