Hello again.

Yes, it's me, I am back. Though I don't have much news, I really wanted to catch up with you all. 

My husband and I have both had our booster covid jabs. But then, there isn't much fun to talk about on that scenario. Nevertheless, with covid 19 problems still hovering around, it's good to know that the government/s are still looking after us. 

But enough of that. On a more cheerful note, a few days ago I dropped off more copies of my Tyneside novels to the Floors Castle Gift shop. At the moment, they can be found in the Apple Shed Gift Shop which has been open throughout the winter months. However, once the grounds and Castle reopen in May, I believe they will be added to the Courtyard Gift Shop, where, last year, they almost flew off the shelves. 

At the moment, I am still trying to work out where we can spend a few day away from home this summer. We really enjoyed being in Whitley Bay last year, especially as we stayed at the Premier Inn overlooking the Promenade. It was really wonderful being able to gaze out of the window and look at the sea. However, the journey home rather spoilt our break - though I won't go into that again. 

Anyway, I would be delighted to hear from anyone who might have a suggestion as to where we could stay this year. Somewhere easy to reach from the Scottish Borders, yet has something enjoyable going on during the evening.  I understand that it will be difficult, but if you think of something, then please get back to me. 

Meanwhile, I would love to hear how you are all doing. Whether you are authors, office staff, shop assistants, canteen assistants or have held any other similar jobs, then I can honestly say that I have also been there. 

Take care all and please get back to me, 

Cheers, 

Eileen
