Ate and drank our way around #Belfast #Christmasmarket. Which might explain how two of our party ended up stuck in a lift. #shouldn’tlaugh.

Finished reading 'Into the Fire' - part of the Helen Grace series of books, although this book can be read as a standalone. From the opening page to the very last chapter, I was hooked. A thoroughly enjoyable read. @m_j_arlidge @orionbooks #amreading #amreviewing #books #writingcommunity

Kew Gardens – a quiet oasis amid the hustle and bustle of London. After a few hours among the greenery I have a full heart and very sore feet. 😊

Protesting from bed today in a national day of action against disability benefit cuts by UK government.

The money could be raised by taxing the superrich - they will barely notice it has gone whereas reducing welfare benefits will hurt people needlessly.
