Happy publication day to @luisaajones.bsky.social I can’t wait to read this 🎉

🇬🇷 🇬🇷🇬🇷 Those of you who follow me will know that my next two novels are set on Greek islands. To get in the mood for Greece and the kind of stories I write, why not try ‘The Greek Island Secret’? 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Just when I thought having a bad back couldn’t get any worse, a stranger insisted on tying up my shoelaces when they came undone in the supermarket and I explained why I couldn’t bend down to do them myself 😳

With all that’s going on in the world, I’m trying to find a moment of joy every day. This was today’s. Last time I walked past this tree there were just two blossoms open. Now it’s covered 🤍

I wasn’t quick enough to photograph a nuthatch that perched beside me on yesterday’s birthday outing but this robin stayed on its branch long enough for me to snap it. It was singing its little heart out 🎶

My faith in humanity has been restored. Major panic just now when I discovered I’d lost my debit card - I must have left it in a car park payment machine last night 😱 Rang bank - it had already been reported by a third party and cancelled. Wish I could thank that person ❤️
