Hope you had a lovely birthday Vicki 🎂 🥳! I love a family beach walk too 🌊 and a jigsaw. Thank you for the mention of your Motherhood & Creativity interview in your post too ❤️
Thanks Jenna - the small pleasures are often the best pleasures eh 😊 Hope 2025 has been easeful so far (or at least as easeful as it's possible to be with little ones around!) x
Hope you enjoyed your birthday, Vicki. Fascinated by the story of the bunker - what a niche thing to want to own! (I don't think I'd dare to think too hard about how it might come in handy one day!)
I know - I couldn't believe it when Karen popped into the chat on the webinar saying she'd bought a bunker!!
I actually did some filming years ago for a TV show in one of the large bunkers that would have housed a whole government department - but Karen's one is tiny and I imagine pretty claustrophobic. I'm really intrigued to visit it - though I still think I'd rather be instantly evaporated than survive should the worst happen and bunkers are ever actually needed for their original purpose... 😱)
Ha! Just you wait and see how in-depth I can go into bunker world. All puns very much intended 🤣
And thank you for your very kind words! I can't remember now who it was who recommended starting a folder of nice things people say about your work, but I've created one to give my ego a little boost when I'm feeling fragile and this comment is definitely getting filed away in there ❤️
Happy Belated Birthday, sounds like you had a lovely day - love that your Mum complains about you being late! I cannot wait to see what the bunker looks like inside if you're brave enough to go down those steps when you visit it.

Such a fabulous, immersive post - just right for the start of the year! Happy, happy birthday!
I giggled like a girl (okay, I am a girl - so not a big leap) at this fabulous phrase: '...a more in-depth bunker post!' 🤣
Your writing is always lovely, whether it's blog-based or topic-based. x

LOL! I love a good pun!
And it’s such a pleasure. 😘

She's not wrong about the lateness to be fair. Coming up for half a century later and I'm still perpetually playing catch up 😆
That ladder does look pretty forbidding but I think I will definitely have to be force myself to be brave and climb on down when the time comes....
A belated birthday wishes to you Vicki.
Thanks! xx
