What a pleasure this evening to celebrate the launch of ‘The Last Spring’ by my friend @maureenboyle122. Such a beautiful, moving collection of poetry. 💐

Four years ago I was turning 39 & looking at this photo Stevey & I both look about a decade younger! I guess that’s the difference that a covid epidemic and a houseful of pets makes!!

📚No filters needed to capture these smiles! All aboard tonight for the @noalibispress book launch at @noalibisbookstore with @hegatronix for Bernie McGill’s new novel, ‘This Train Is For’. It’s supposed to be for my summer reading pile but I’m not sure I can wait that long … 🏝

🥰The absolute JOY of going out last night to see @thenational and dancing in Botanic Gardens like we were young’uns again. They played a dreamy set & the vibe was immense. Cheeks still a bit sore from all the grinning!

What a beautiful garden party this afternoon with orange almond cake & raspberry compote, gin cocktails & coffee to sober me up after! Thanks Maureen & Malachi- a perfect way to end a bank holiday weekend. 🍰🍹🍸🍊

👟I did my 198th @parkrunuk this morning in #ormeaupark with the wonderful @lonerganorla keeping me company on the way round. (She’s looking remarkably relaxed here, unlike me with my big beetroot cheeks🔥). Since I’m prone to injuring myself & now that we’ve the dog to mind as well as the children to ferry around, I haven’t been running parkrun so regularly. Every time I do make it though, I’m always touched by the warmth of the reception I receive- it’s truly the most lovely community. Gotta keep at now to hit my 200 milestone this June. 🏆

💕Go pink or go home. The Guardian Weekend recommends dressing in one colour to boost your mood. I’ll let you know if it works later! 🌸(these trousers are @robell_official, bought for a £10 in Magowan’s Fashions last year. Blouse from @dunnesstores, this season.

🍹We invited friends over this evening so the kids transformed the #ikea trolley into the ‘soft bar’ area with summer glasses from @marksandspencer. I think the spider plant improved the look enormously.🪴

😍 Ruth, who runs the show, seems to know all her customers by name- even going so far as to send them a message if she sees a rake of stuff coming in which she thinks they might like. ⁣

👗 I had a grand old time, parading about in dresses selected by the very sweet Georgia, who is of similar diminutive stature to me, so had an idea what I might fancy. I finally settled on a @comptoirdescotonniers number with a dropped waist, & this stunning tea dress from @anthropologie.
⁣
👡 And don’t get me started on the shoes. I fell in love with @camper on a trip to Madrid in 2014. I ❤️ the chunky heels - I’ve seen other brands try to pull off similar looks & the end result looks like a surgical shoe. ⁣🙈

😁 There’s no denying it: shopping boosts my serotonin level 💫💫no end, especially if it’s guilt free & second hand, with staff who are so kind & nurturing that you want to meet them for a 🍷afterwards (but don’t want to ask incase you look like a weird stalker-type 🤣). ⁣

🎤 I was on with @frankmitchellu105radio this morning, chatting about @loveisland teaming up with @ebay_uk to encourage secondhand shopping. If you’re new to the concept, & want to check out some high quality & designer preloved gear, then this is the very best place to begin your journey. 🥰

Wee shot from a visit to #noalibisbookstore on Saturday. I even went to bed early to get started on ‘Constellations’ by @sineadgleeson. I can confirm that it is MARVELLOUS. ✨✨

Just watching a ‘Sounds of 1997’ episode of @topofthepops90s & wishing they’d bring it back. Classic. The cat & dog agree. I’m thinking if @natalie_imbruglia came back in feline form it would definitely be as a #tortoiseshellcat. Off to check out ‘95 now… 🎶🎵🎤
