Lovely walk down...
Surprisingly quiet for a Saturday - lots of RockPools!

Hello, Goodbye

A few weeks before we moved, Gimli got sick - real sick. She lost a third of her body weight in what seemed like just a few weeks and the diagnosis was not good. Not wanting to put her through the additional stress of moving home (or Bilbo the stress of potentially losing a friend AND being in a new home) we came to the difficult decision to put her to sleep.


We have had 14 lovely years with her, and now she is with her brother Frodo who we sadly lost about 5 years ago.

So...then we moved, and Bilbo is doing really great - but we felt he was a little lonely having been Gimli's companion for the past few years.

Introducing Bella...

Blog Block...

Is that even a real thing - I just haven't felt like, been inspired to, seen the point in blogging recently. To be honest I don't even know what is changing my mind but here goes....am I really cut out for this?

:: Firstly...how do you like the new look? I decided that I have been away for so long that I should make a real change, and what better theme to have now that I officially live BY THE SEA!!

:: So YEP we moved! A month ago we actually fulfilled a dream of living by the Sea (a lot more on that in the next post)

:: SERIOUS BIT - I do miss being so close to my sister and my friends, and I know they feel it too - but now that we are here I can honestly say I think we have done the right thing, even only after a month! Living here is quite the loveliest thing.

:: We lost a much loved member of our small family - Gimli. She didn't make the move with us as got sick just a few weeks prior to the move. Very sad

:: We gained an ickle cheeky new member to our small family - Bella (more on her in another post)
