Not had much head space for photography recently. This came off the end of a roll from our last trip.

A winters walk in Caernarfon.
Taken over the holiday period in 2024.
It was one of those walks where you didn’t really want to go, but accepted you needed a break from eating, drinking and Christmas movies.

After my little girl was born she had to spend a couple of days on this teeny tiny sunbed to help with jaundice.
This picture speaks of those first few days in hospital. She made it home early Christmas Day 2023.

At 6’4 and built like a shed. I am not the kind of individual strangers approach in the street.
Today while carrying my lunch I got stopped three times by random people in five minutes.
I can only assume carrying a foot long sub makes me somewhat more comical & approachable 🤷😂

Great thing about only having sheep for neighbours.
When you wake up with a song in your head, you can blast it while breakfasting.

Been rocking a Neurodiversity Pin Badge on my over-shirt today.
Proud & relieved to be making peace with who I am.
Although of course the tiny hole in my overshirt made by the badge is massively irritating me.
