After months of not stopping, we’ve finally taken a night off. Deepest bath I’ve ever seen, Irn Bru on standby, The Chase on the bathroom telly. BATHROOM TELLY! 😂 This is how civilisation should end. 😏

Autumn light, golden leaves, and one very happy springer spaniel. Morning walks don’t get better than this. 🌤️🍂🐶♥️

Autumn sunrise on the croft. ☀️🍂
That golden hour when everything glows. The trees, the hives, even the hens. The light feels softer this time of year, like it knows it’s got to work harder before the long winter sets in. I’ll never get tired of mornings like this. ❤️

🤩 NEW VLOG! 🤩
For 6 months I battled ADHD chaos, self-doubt, and memories of being bullied. I vanished from YouTube… but it became the best 6 months of my life. Why? I wrote my first novella. 📖 It launches today and you could win a signed copy along with a box-full of goodies!

My debut novella launches tomorrow at 4pm. 📖✨
A theatre critic, a rising star, and a choice that could ruin them both. Risk. Reputation. Trust. Everything they thought was safe is on the line. ⚡️ Twenty four hours till you meet Aiden and Connor. 🎭 The stage is set. Don’t miss opening night. 🌟

Remembering an old friend, Dickie Bird, who has died aged 92. A true Yorkshireman and umpire beyond compare. He brought humour, integrity, and his love of cricket to every match. And, as I found out, hated chicken wrapped in bacon! 😂 Rest in peace, Dickie. ♥️

We disappeared for a few weeks.
Not because we’ve been kidnapped, joined a monastery, or ran off to marry Lando Norris. Truth is, life happened, we forgot how to “social,” and to be honest, I think we needed a break.

Anyway, we’re back tomorrow on YouTube. Lower your expectations accordingly. 😂
