It was wonderful to read about your earlier life. I was rewarded with many more insights that created the adventurous, insightful and loving person you are today. I did not know how your friendship with Fiona started. Love n light my SS ✨🙏🏼✨

I’m not sure this letter is entirely meditative in places Darren but the memories were suddenly too real to bury again so our they had to come..!

I hope you have a very fine weekend..🤍

A jolly fine question and an even better answer, which made me laugh out loud! The Waltons was an integral part of my childhood - what memories! I will think about what movie inspires my dress code (if I have such a thing!), as nothing immediately springs to mind!

Also, big apologies for not getting a 50 word story to you - all of a sudden it was Friday! Where did the week go? I will endeavour to do it over the weekend for you...

Huge thanks Debs, it was a question that secured a friendship, albeit online. I too loved the Waltons, it was one of those programs that joined our family together.. perhaps even shaped it to a certain degree. I’d love to hear what film or program you think of... and really, no problem at all for the 50 words, there is no rush at all xx
