This is why I am proud to support the Ageing Without Limits Campaign
Ageism is bad for everyone.

But women can face extra barriers and layers of inequality as they age when sexism combines with ageism.

More than one in three (36%) women over 50 say they have been patronised because of their age.

Such a scary day in Edinburgh today, red alert weather: deafening noise created by winds, flat shaking, trees down, everything closed, sirens like air raids. The sooner it stops, the better. #stormEowyn

I defend Labour a lot. I think they are doing a good job overall in the face of adversity. But even I cannot find a positive in this continued rejection of joining the SM or CU or anything that is offered by Europe. I want them to get this sorted. ASAP.

Trump's flurry of destructive actions in his first few hours in power just made regaining our EU membership much MUCH more pressing.

When someone is actively tearing down the myriad rules-based systems that glue the modern world together, we need to be closely partnered with their defender.

Sending my first book of the year, always satisfying. However for many people there wasn’t much cheer during the festivities. The end of a marriage is sad, whatever the reasons.

Reworking my first 10,000 words. Really enjoyable to see how the story and the characters surprise me.

Loved the description of England in #themirrorandthelight as ‘An island full of heretics and sheep”

That’s #Brexit and #reformUK voters in one simple phrase

Please sign this. We can’t sit around and wait forever - we need to show our politicians there is popular demand for rebuilding relations with the EU. I think it’s called “the will of the people!”
Support our call for an inquiry on our future relationship with Europe.

Ridiculously pleased with my attempt at Nigella’s chocolate fruit cake. Perfect way to unwind after a demanding week.

Struggling to write a synopsis for my first novel. However doing this makes me clarify in my mind what the book is really about (not quite what I thought). #writing

My two year old grandson just said to me: ‘what are you doing, darling?’ What is a grandma supposed to do but melt? 💝

This is your Black Friday reminder that actual book shops can't afford to discount like Amazon and supermarkets do. If you can, get full price books but also a full heart.

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it

I really enjoy being an ambassador for the ‘Ageing Better’ campaign. This has inspired me to start writing a novel about a woman in her 60s ‘s quest to find relevance and happiness #writing
