I'd go for green ribbons in its hair.
And its blue sky name would be TreacleStirrups
We'd be so happy together.

Not that i've thought about it.

I am REALLY GOOD at not buying horses!
Thanks
That would be dreamy, thanks!
Running a business by myself is amazing. I made that choice.
But every so often I do think to myself "I really wish someone else was here to sort this (particular problem) out, cos i'm shite at this!".
Then I laugh in the face of self doubt and find some cheese in the fridge*
*I weep
The last 2 days have been dumb bum rubbish.
For ages I'd been putting off doing work stuff I needed to do.
So, I did some of that stuff.
Gah!
All I want to do is eat cheese, sell books, run around, hang out with my fam and try to buy a horse.
IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?!
Thanks Helen! I sure can. It's £10.99 + £1.40 P+P. Hope that's OK?
Just posted ANOTHER one to you today.
Thanks!

Soz for the bragging, but I am still absolutely stoked and really proud of myself for doing this.
Hastings Park Run celebrated its 11th Birthday yesterday.
The excellent @jonsmalldon.bsky.social was there to take photos to mark the occasion.
Jon caught this magical moment of sweaty me overtaking someone 200 metres before the finish on the way to record a huge PB.

Thanks Jon!
I'd take pride in that reply.
A photo of the book in hardcover against a Persian-style carpet with the words 'Giveaway!' and some party emojis. The cover is a very light peach colour and has illustrations by Adam Beer of: a café in orange, a seagull and a girl with a kite in blue, a green pigeon, pink cow parsley and plastic bags and a yellow origami boat and leaves. The title is The place I’m in ‘WHAT I SEE WHEN I STOP TO NOTICE’ in black letters. It has this quote at the bottom ‘This Book is lovely’ by Philip Pullman.
A photo of a double-page spread from the chapter ‘Popping In’. The colour of the pages is white. There are observations by me (the black text is too small for most people to read) and a black-and-white illustration on the left-hand page by Adam Beer, of a little girl balancing a broom on her hand.
A photo of a double-page spread from the chapter ‘AT THE SEASIDE’. The colour of the pages is peach. There are observations by me (the black text is too small for most people to read) and black-and-white illustrations by Adam Beer, of a brick wall with graffiti (saying I live here), a front door, a key in a lock, some keys and a cat sitting on a mat.
A photo of a double-page spread from the chapter ‘COMING HOME’. The colour of the left-hand pages is white, and the colour of the right-hand page is peach, and the book is against a Persian-style carpet. There are observations by me (the black text is too small for most people to read) and a black-and-white illustration on the left-hand page by Adam Beer, of a few seashells and on the right of a tattoo star.

I heard news today that doctors have surgically moved a lion's mouth on to the top of its head.
Understandably, this has created an uproar.
Typical Cancer.
hapoy??
We went to Guestling Wood, just up the road from Hastings today, for a walk.
The blubells were looking great, and the birds were sounding pretty hapoy too.
Thanks! It's on its way to you now, S
