From Madam Alice

Hello everyone it is good to be back blogging. I appreciate that it has been a bit slow but we are going through a little bit of change.

Now don't panic, the changes are OK but what it does mean  is that our normal week routine has had to be amended.

Earlier this year my mother had a fall and we had to look after her for 6 weeks, the reality is that Mick stepped up to the plate and spent a lot of the time up at my mother's being her carer.  Now it was Mick doing that job and not billie - I think my mother would have had a "dickie fit" if I had sent billie to look after her.

While up in Leicester at my Mother's Mick took on some online work for a university looking at some of their training and teaching.  The result is that he has now been asked to do regular work for them. That will involve Mick being away for 3 days every fortnight (1 day one week and 2 days the next) so we will be adjusting our domestic routine a little.

John has been keeping busy with his work but still a strong and important part of our relationship for billie and I, so no change there for us.

My work was very quick to get back to normal, but we are still able to do some work from home and I do the occasional visit into the London Office (thankfully less than it was before COVID hit). 

So what are we planning to do going forward with the blog?  Well we will try to get back into a regular posts of at least one a week with billie taking the lead for posting as he did before. I will continue to add in my perspective on our lifestyle and the fun that we will be upto. Also we will to continue with our short posts on twitter and elsewhere.

So for everyone, keep safe, keep dropping by the site and let us know what you think.
