"Every disappointment is for good!"


This is what my Mom used to say to me.

I must confess, it didn't always land well.

However, today it made sense.

Today Judy & I were due to be in London with the Jacaranda Books crew, hosting #StanleyJBrowne and diving into his brilliant book #LittleBigMan.

Unfortunately, it's been cancelled. 😞 If you've bought tickets 🎟 you would have received an email and a refund.

So, we suddenly had a day to do whatever we wanted.

What are we doing?

We're grabbing a bite to eat at one of Norfolk's not so new #Caribbean eateries, #FlavourznVibez.

We're so pleased to meet Jamal & Michael, 2 young brothers building their culinary enterprise in #Norwich city centre.

After, we're going to go watch a film. We're not sure which one. Let's just say we have different tastes.

When it comes to food though, we're on the same page.

Or in this case, the same plate. ☺️

Supporting our community!

I always relish any opportunity to hang out with the special soul that is Judy. ❤️

What is your go to when you've unexpectedly got some free time❓️
