Deep joy and happiness. After a hiatus of inertia, the epidemic, learning to live again after some of the worst experiences of my life I am finally back. I was in a hole of misery and couldn’t find a way out until I did. More on that over time. For now let me remind you of the rules of my blog. Mostly locally owned places to eat or get food, restaurants, cafes, Garden Centre shops, the thing in common is that they are not huge global chains with no personal input. The other thing is that my reviews are on the whole only positive. It is easy to get higher followings if you are mean, it is funnier to be foul about things and bring people down in, dare I say it, the British way. Reach the top and we shoot you down. Not on this blog. So as my readership grows and I am back to spreading the word please sign up and share. Not to sound needy or anything but I want your love!
My beloved son, James, picture below, has found all my back ups of different writings I have done over decades so I am having the most fun going back to it. Writing is cathartic, it has been proved to increase happiness, personal growth and self discipline. Hells bells, I needed to go back to writing particularly for the self discipline. I have had an amazing life from being born and bought up in Yemen, going to many schools, asked to leave many schools, and so many memories. An addictive personality but also a people pleaser leads to many interesting situations and predicaments. Christened 3 times, married twice, was a potter, politician, a Mayoress, acted, sang and became addicted to anything I could, the best being writing. I have been asked to be more open about the events in my past so am also writing a book but will slip the odd bit in my blog. More about food in the next blog post.
So to finalise my first blog post:- Who is the portrait of below and where is it?
