About

I live in Ormskirk and work in Knustford (although mainly at home at the moment). I’m married to Steve, who’s from Abram. I have 2 kids – Lily, born 2003 and Joel, born 2005. My Dad lives 2 miles up the road. My mum died of an out-of-the-blue heart attack in 2010. Steve’s parents live 20 minutes away by car.

I’m a brummy by upbringing, although you wouldn’t know it from my accent (I’m told some people would). I grew up in one of the posh parts – a part that still smarts from the injustice that it is, technically, part of Birmingham and no longer an independent Royal Town. From there I’ve lived in Leeds, Winchester, Cricklewood, Twickenham, Upholland and now Ormskirk.

The blogs I read include knitting, eco-activists, home-makers, general craft and an apparently disproportionate number of home schoolers and people with ADHD or related problems. I’ve always been crafty in one way or another. My current focus is on knitting and gardening. I’m trying to read more.
