Sand and waves between my toes
I am going to miss this beach. I am going to miss walking on its sand and feeling its cool water wash over my feet. Not long now before we are London bound. For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday.
Speaking at my first political event
I am not the best public speaker. I get scared talking in front of people. Just thinking about it does strange things to my stomach and chest. But in a couple of days I will be speaking at my first political event — a community forum in support of people who have fled conflict and […]

Me: Come on. Let’s go. Things to do. Movies to see. Him: Mum I’m on holidays. You’re not supposed to move when you’re on holidays. I managed to drag him off the couch and push him out the door without too much fuss. It was a cute movie. For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday!
