One of the reasons we visited Bath recently was to attend a reading spa at Mr B's Emporium of Reading Delights. This is a cute book store where staff make bespoke recommendations. The store is really well displayed with separate sections for children, board games, non fiction, and myths amongst the usual genres of books [...]
It appears that February has been a music-driven month for me.

With baking and music too, it's as if September was an old school month of entertainment. I have tried to actively stay present [...]
