Blooming marvellous 🌻✨ . . Today I should have been running the London Marathon - but clearly that’s not on the agenda right now. Instead, went for a little 6.2 mile amble in the woods, found some more blue bells, waved at a half dozen families out with their dogs, and generally enjoyed another uncommonly sunny Sunday. Spring definitely has sprung. . . It’s easy to miss people when it’s sunny - I can just imagine us all sitting in the park with our tepid Prosecco and picnics in Sainsbury’s bags. It would be a last minute decision, probably taking all of us up to Greenwich. Most of us would be an hour or so late. Someone would have run and be extra sweaty. Only one person would have remembered to pack ice, but it would all be melted by the time everyone was there. . . Or maybe we’d all be in the pub, post marathon. Maybe we’d all be a little merry by now. Pink cheeked and grinning. High on adrenaline and success despite the achy legs and agonised feet. . . I don’t know. It’s weird not being around friends for so long. But see you all on zoom very soon. I look forward to hearing about your sun soaked Sunday’s too. . . #sunsunsun #springflowers #springtime #bloomingday #bloomwhereyouareplanted #alittlebeautyeveryday #myeverydaymagic #beautifulmatters #createandcultivate #sunshiningday

New words written for @metro.co.uk 🤓✨ . . “Despite being scattered across every nook and cranny of London, we are still supporting each other - and I realise that though I am on my own, I am far from alone. It’s like a much needed mental hug.” . . Shout out to all the amazing friends, my lovely family, and super colleagues for making what could have been such a lonely tome, quite the opposite. You’re absolute gems and I know we’ll all get through this together. . . Photos feat: emo night’s epic MySpace quiz from @justjessting and @timhillierbrook, the beautiful @sharonariley’s birthday brunch zoom, house party with my grandpa for his birthday @brookgeoff, and of course all the excellent faces of @fionaxday @larakbaker @karmabertelsen @jentwistle17, @georgeallner, @vickymarya and so many more. Love to you all. . . #mentalhealth #loneliness #socialisolation #covid19 #positivity #zoomzoom #somanyquizzes #quizlife #beautifulmatters #writerslife #amwriting

Feeling the blues 💙✨ . . The Bluebell is the sweetest flower That waves in summer air: Its blossoms have the mightiest power To soothe my spirit’s care. - Emily Brontë . . #intothewoods #woodland #bluebells #bluebellseason #stateapproved #littlerambler

The Scribble Bug

Beware of a Girl with a Book. She is dangerous. “There are those who say that life is like a book, with chapters for each event in your life and a limited number of pages on which you can spend your time. But I prefer to think that a book is like a life, particularly a good one, which is well to worth staying up all night to finish.” ― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid
