My heart skips along the Dales in North Yorkshire, my soul sits inside Ely Cathedral, and my body trudges through corporate life in Wellington, NZ. Coffee, cats, 15th/16th history, architectural photography

I am at a conference. The best thing to happen all day has been the afternoon tea.

Talk about it, get a plan in place, get the epoa signed… decide what to do when you still can. Much easier on the kids and even if its a tough conversation with family at the time, its for the best

Clearing out the family home of 40 years when the parents kept everything is utter mindscrew insanity. I don’t recommend it - plus getting to the point when your kids have to make all of the decisions. Its not fair

We are clearing out the family house. When I say the parents kept everything, I mean they kept everything! 😳

Hi all. Both my parents have gone into care and we can’t find a home for their sweet little cat. She is an older cat and a tortie, and sits on your lap. If anyone could potentially find a spot in their home for her can you let me know?

Kia ora, Can anyone recommend a rest home that has both dementia and normal rest home care in Hamilton? Looking for a place where the managment are excellent - understanding and not defensive when ordinary questions are raised. Thanks in advance x

Working sux. Who came up with this madness. Having to deal with people who are disingenuous at best and “something else” at worst.. I missed the lessons on how to understand people I fear

I had such a sh+tty day today. I could have handled some things so much better and my inane behaviour is running around my head.

Instagram’s algorithm has decided it doesn’t like my cathedrals account anymore. I’m posting photos of these astonishing places into the winderness 🤷‍♀️🫠

Getting the train to day as I spend 2.5 hours in the car yesterday. Traffic between Lower Hutt and a Wellington has been abysmal recently. Need to get back in the train habit 🚂

Every time I drive to Wellington Hospital I see Loafers Lodge and wonder why it is still standing, complete with phone number and room to let sign. Calling what happened there horrific is not descriptive enough

Every one at work thinks it’s out of character for me to love Metallica and are shocked I went to the concert. Little do they know eh

It’s going to be a long couple of days. Least it’s just one night away. Wish I could have sent my clone. In the meantime, here’s Auckland as we came into land

So I’ve been prescribed a medication that has bad side effects. The doctor was so blasé about it. My head is spinning a bit. Google is telling me more than the doctor. Nice.
