I was a police officer for twenty years. I probably shouldn’t have been taking notes. Two true, funny police memoirs — both just 99p on Kindle at the moment.

I’ve been meaning to say this for ages, and forgive my proud aunty moment, but my niece, Holly, got a nine in her GCSE art. Her little sister, Lyla, is her muse in two of these paintings which I also love 😍

It's been a hard year so far. Lots of wonderful things too, but overall, hard. My first step to recovery is a little mini-retreat. I had a great craving for trees, so I've come to the Forest of Dean for a few days of walking, reading, sleeping & thinking #trees #books #nature
