Zafir
must convince Destiny to make their arrangement more
permanent!
Taking time out to enjoy yourself is essential and
it’s something I look forward to. I spend part of my day
working on the farm and part of it writing, but I enjoy
nothing better than to do something completely different.
I have always had an interest in history and love
visiting castles or grand old houses. I usually take my
camera with me as it gives me a chance to indulge in that
little passion too. Whilst the splendour of large stately
homes is fun to see, it’s the castles I like best.
Usually they are ruins, but I love to use my imagination
and build up a picture of what life must have been like
all those hundreds of years ago.
Of course it doesn’t have to be time away or a day out.
Just an hour or so to myself to relax and do something I
want to do, which for me would be losing myself in a good
book. Again, it’s history which draws me and this or
romance is my chosen genre.
At this time of the year, as summer is arriving and the
days are becoming warmer and longer, I enjoy spending
time in the garden. Whether I am a successful gardener is
another matter, but I usually manage to produce a decent
crop of tomatoes and strawberries – although not very
many strawberries make it to the table!
One of the best things I do each day to give myself just
a little bit of time out is walking the dog. Poppy is a
Golden Retriever and at six months old is full of energy
and mischief, but seeing her explore the world always
brings a smile to my face, even on the dreariest of
mornings.
