It’s strange how sometimes you don’t even realise that it’s been weeks and weeks since you last saw one of your friends. I have a bad habit of immersing myself into my blogs at times. I’ve been working on new things, adding content to existing blogs and generally losing myself a bit in the computer. I think obsessed is too strong a word but I suspect it’s not far from the right one.
This week Steph from I’m Counting UFO’s (seen in the photos above) came over with her two adorable children and we headed to local Calshot Beach. We’ve not seen each other since pre-Ghana so it was a long overdue meet up.
It was freezing cold, windy and our kids noses were running faster than Usain Bolt in a hurry for his tea but it was great. Fresh air, happy children and a top friend to natter too. I must do it more often. I will.







I'm Annie and I live in the depths of the New Forest. Mother to many, wife to one, blogger, creative type, lover of real books and a bit of a lush.





































The beach and a friend? Double healing whammy! Anything that prevents you buying more domains can’t be a bad thing – great to see you all having a blast

We were on the beach yesterday. We forgot our gloves. It hurt. And I didn’t have a friend

The only solution to the cold fingers though, was to buy hot doughnuts – result!
