So I had a lovely chat with #janeausten yesterday. About books 😁. #beyondthebonnets #lovereading

Book of choice on the train today. I'm going to a Jane Austen exhibition, so, well, it's a #janeausten book 😉. #lovereading #beyondthebonnet

1st of February. I can now have an aperitif before my dinner. #croftoriginal #itsthelittlethings

Still devastating 😢

6 years ago today. Still a trajedy. #rejoin

A really bad one.

Running along boardwalks and swimming in the sea - in November 😀Thank you #Portugal You are stunning 😀 #LagosPortugal #PlayadonaAna

Had a lovely holiday in Portugal for the #MotoGP The Portuguese put on a helluva show before the race. Ships, tumblers, lowflying helicopters, parachutists, flypasts, pyrotechnics - it was all there #Portugal #Algarve #LagosPortugal

And she told you off like a naughty schoolgirl. Terrible behaviour (her not you). Thank you for speaking up.

I'm pretty old too and I feel so let down. This is not the Labour Party I voted for. 😢

Annoying - and wrong. And why do they say 'misleading the public' or 'disinformation' when what is meant is telling lies?

It's simple. He's saying that autism is the 'fault' of women. Blame the mothers. Hideous.

So, many years ago, I moved into my house as a young woman and there was an elderly woman who lived next door. She had lived there many years at that point. That house has changed hands a few times and last week, a young couple moved in. I am now the elderly woman who lives next door. 🤷

Oh my. The overture from 'Die Fledermaus' - my favouritue overture. #BBCProms

I'm a bit late to the party. Thank goodness for #iPlayer 😁 - loving this - had the wonderful #Mendelssohn and now on this incredible #Sibelius love the #FirstNightoftheProms

Sunday runday, followed by breakfast with these fearless women. 10k, which basically means I'm resting on the sofa now.... 😁 #thisgirlcan #261fearlessuk #running

So I wore this sticker all day this time nine years ago 🙁. I still have it, stuck on my mirror as a reminder. #Imin #brexitisadisaster #rejoin

Something rather lovely in these troubling times -wildflower meadows in local park and in arboretum. Much more stunning in real life. #nature #meadows #bees #itsthelittlethings #peace #stopwars

Book of choice on the train today! It's a classic! #lovereading #millymollymandy

What on earth is DEI? I thought we called it Equality and Diversity?

Sunday runday. #261Fearless #thisgirlcan I got out there and I did it. Granted, they had to keep waiting for me, but I managed to catch them up for the photo shoots!

I'm busy crocheting a few large projects at the moment, so thought I would pause and make these beauties. Gotta love a bit of #gingham and #hearts . Nice to actually start and finish something 😊. #crochet #coasters

It's simple. Twunt is frightened of Poo tin and he's jealous of Zelenskyy.

For Global running day yesterday, I did this, with a fab group of fearless women. 5k of running and endless ks of laughing #261fearless #globalrunningday

Off I went again. Still slow, but I feel so lucky I can do what I do. #thisgirlcan

So I did another 10k race at the weekend! It was tough. It was hilly. It was hot. I was slow, but my claim to fame was that I was the OLDEST woman in the race. I can't believe I didn't get a prize for that 🤷. #deddington #fourfarmschallenge #thisgirlcan

I’m one of those dodgy immigrants who came here on a spouse visa and got indefinite leave to remain after 12 months.

The incalculable harm I have done to the UK includes dedicating my life to public service, educating thousands of British young people, and paying more tax than I’ll ever get back.
