HOW IS ANOTHER MONTH OVER
THOUGH??
I’d been feeling a little bit
antsy about June; a hospital appointment was looming and that’s never fun. As
it happened it all went fine, as I kind of thought it would, and the rest of
the month was a smasher.
LET ME TELL YOU ‘BOUT IT.
What I
did:
The month started off with a
friend throwing an afternoon tea party. The sun shone and we sat outside in her
rather lush garden drinking gin and prosecco, eating cake, and chatting. It was
lush.
My best guy and I headed out to
Saint Gervais for a long weekend. There were long walks and a day spent sitting
on the balcony reading in the sun; there was yummy food and Aperol Spritz in
the sunshine and lots of cuddles and lots of giggles and then we watched the
Criterium du Dauphine cycle race go through the village which was exciting. MBG is a massive cycling fan;
he got to meet Sir Dave Brailsford and Geraint Thomas (who won the race!) and
generally lived his best life.
I had a spa weekend! My friend
Hol lives in Edinburgh and my friend Natalie lives in Cheshire so we’re fairly
scattered about so once or twice a year we try to organise a weekend away. This
time it was Harrogate. A spa morning at Rudding Hall followed by shopping and
wine. Lovely. I bough a blazer and we laughed a LOT.
Then, I ended the month
celebrating my friend Jane’s birthday with the best meal I’ve eaten in a long
time at this cute little place called Roots Supper Club in Ramsbottom. YUM.

Who knew an airport breakfast could look like this. Definitely started our mini break off the right way!
I'm not going to lie: it felt a little bit weird getting in a cable car wearing shorts and without my skis!
These two though.

I
watched:
Season 4 was on Netflix so I pretty much flew through that, and loved every minute. Such a good show.
And that is June. So much better
than I had worried it would be. It’s July now and I am positively giddy with
excitement: 19 sleeps til I head back out to the Alps and then spend a few days
in Italy. I love our summer road trips and we keep floating new ideas for this
one and I can’t wait.
Bookish plans for June:

get stuck into:
AND STILL
because how have I not read these yet???
