Hello Everyone. I know it’s been a while. The last time I tried a vlog instead of a blog. I’m not sure if I will carry on doing these as it costs me around £150 a year to pay for this site and I’m not using it very much, but at the same time I […]

Hello. It’s been ages since I’ve written a blog post and I’ve decided I’m going to do one a month from now on. The last one was just after the Women’s Institute convention in April, and since then a LOT has happened in my life. It’s been really quite stressful and I’m only just coming […]

All I’ve ever wanted since I got into singing at the age of 15 (once I knew it was what I really wanted to do a year later) is sing. I’ve never wanted anything else. When my dad told me to work in a bank, and he shouted me down saying I was not going […]

It’s that time to get going again but I don’t know about you, it feels like a wrench. This time last week I was in Seville and in ‘switch off’ mode. It doesn’t happen very often, where I get to just switch off and not care for a bit. I could go out and sit […]

I’m about to start my Christmas run. Once that begins on Thursday it’s head down until the 22nd. Go and sing and then come home to rest, then go and sing again and then rest. It doesn’t bother me as I’m not a ‘go out’ person anyway. Even if I could go on a night […]

I’m sat on my bed writing this. It’s a Thursday morning. I don’t have much to do today apart from taking my ladies choir in Holmfirth tonight. I woke up with the songs they are doing in my head, and drilling coming from next door. I’m catching up on emails and planning programmes for things. […]

Hi Everyone. How does the time go so quickly? I used to have lots of spare time to be totally focussed on singing, but life is giving me so many more things now too. I’ve been growing my own food at an allotment and then we’ve been given stuff by other people too so it’s […]

Hello Everyone. It seems like I do this blog less and less now, but it’s just that life has taken over and I sit thinking I want to write it and then it’s being able to sit and do it around everything else. I want to write it more like I used to. I am […]

I wrote this blog late last night and woke up feeling totally different about things. The last few weeks have felt like being in a storm but it’s passed and I can see things more clearly now. I’m on the right path, I’m being true to myself and there’s no need to worry. I just […]

Hello Everyone. Hope you are all doing well. I’m settled into the new house with Jon and am enjoying that we have some woods and a river at the end of our garden. It’s a really peaceful house. We feel like we got lucky with this one, as it’s got everything we need apart from […]
