I spent my last morning on the Curlew Walking Holiday really making the most of my incredible accommodation. As much as I would have loved to sleep in I didn’t. But I did relax my way through the morning, with some granola, apple juice and coffee. I wrote in the guest book and soaked up … Continue reading Crossing The Finish Line – Day Four of Walking the Norfolk Coast Path
Seals and Shingle – Day Three of Walking the Norfolk Coast Path
As I woke up on the third day, I lay there and didn't dare to move. I was so concerned about how much I had ached the night before and how much I could ache today. As I swung my legs over the edge of the camp bed I braced myself for the inevitable twinge... … Continue reading Seals and Shingle – Day Three of Walking the Norfolk Coast Path
Miles of Sand and Seashells – Day Two of Walking the Norfolk Coast Path
When I rolled out of my cocoon on day two I was fully expecting to be the biggest ball of ache known to mankind. But all was good!!

47 Miles of Wide Open Sky- Day One of Walking the Norfolk Coast Path
The morning I started walking the Norfolk Coast Path it was chucking it down. Proper raining cats and dogs. The day before it had been hideous humid sunshine, but that morning - torrential rain.

Beverley Knight -Norfolk and Norwich Festival
I’ve seen Beverly Knight on stage a few times now- mainly in the Bodyguard in London. Which I saw a *few* times. I ❤️ London day seat queues. So when I saw she was coming to Norwich I jumped at the chance to see her. This is her 25th year in the business ( yes … Continue reading Beverley Knight -Norfolk and Norwich Festival
Boy Blue – Blak Whyte Gray.
At last years Norfolk and Norwich Festival I wrote my first blog about dance. Nothing has changed and much like before, I still know little about dance, and even less about hip-hop. But even with my very small knowledge of the subject, I had heard of the production Blak Whyte Gray- by Boy Blue. Blak … Continue reading Boy Blue – Blak Whyte Gray.
