I hope you have all been enjoying the sunny warm weather and thunderstorms! We certainly have had some impressive storms in Kent over the last few days. They really upset my dog Luke sadly, so Saturday into Sunday was a particularly tiring night in the Brookes...
Family matters, family has to come first. My husband had to go in for an operation last week, so juggling looking after him, the kids and work has beem fun. However I have manged not to slip to far behind. I am just going to do a little recap of what I have been up...
