Back from paradise
Hello…
I’m back….
And thank you to all those who were concerned that I had disappeared!
I was away on holiday. In paradise to be exact. The Maldives – a beautiful group of coral islands off the tip of India. Lovely. I hope I will get the chance to visit again. It turned out to be the perfect family holiday – scuba diving with sharks and manta ray for the active members of the family; swimming in a warm ocean, sunbathing and making the odd trip to the spa for the lazier ones. No TV, lots of reading, a little sock knitting, lying in bed listening to the waves and food, really good food…lots of fish and lots of curries. Just what we like.
And now I’m back to real life. It was 3 degrees and snowing when we arrived in Zurich last night. I have a mountain of laundry and a mountain of translations, most of which need to be done yesterday. But that’s OK. It’s nice to be home , the heating is on and everything is cosy.
Life is good. And I have a suntan!

I wondered where you were too. How wonderful! I bet you had a fantastic time. But did you finish your sock?! Cold here too – frosty mornings and a fire in the grate. My summer suntan is fading fast š

What a perfect place to go to escape the winter or rather, autumnal chill! Can we please see some more photos??

O my goodness – what a lovely, lovely image. How lucky you are indeed to get to escape! And from what I can tell, the escape came at just the right time?
So now are you in better mind to finish your gorgeous socks?
