Summer is here!

Time seems to fly faster these days – some say this is due to age, we prefer to think it is because we are busy!

Anyway, Last month saw the publication of a few stories I have written for http://www.mode.com

My first foray into the world of writing for them included three stories – all of which might well be useful this summer (especially as this brief heatwave we’re having is set to end shortly with torrential downpours – sorry to be the harbinger of such gloomy tidings!)

The first of my three stories is: 12 Feel Good Movies To Cheer You Up On A Rainy Summer’s Day One of the films I feature is of course the ‘practically perfect’ Mary Poppins marypoppins
It also includes the rather lovely Dean Spanley and one that always makes us smile, Robin Williams and Nathan Lane in the fabulous Birdcage.

The second story is: Seven Therapies To De-Stress you this summer. With referendum and subsequent political shenanigans, this summer has started rather stressfully. So, here I talk about my favourite therapy, Equine Therapy, along with others including: floatation therapy and horticultural therapy.

My final story is: How To See Art Without Visiting A Gallery. I love art – having studied fashion design for four years, there’s nothing I like more than wandering around a gallery or museum. But, I know some people are put off by galleries, so this offers seven suggestions of fabulous art that you can see without crossing the threshold of a gallery! One of my favourites is the Iron Men in Crosby or Antony Gormley’s Another Place

Now Im looking forward to my next adventure in writing… wonder where I will travel to next?
