Be our guest…

...we'd love to have you! That's what we said to our family and friends when we left England.  We're amazed and delighted by how many of you are actually coming to visit - it's such a treat to spend time with old friends and to show off this beautiful country.  Back in March we had … Continue reading Be our guest… →

How do we measure success?

This has been on my mind a lot recently.  My insecurities about my own career 'success' were compounded this week by the the myriad (often self aggrandising) social media posts and news features on International Women's Day (IWD) about women who have smashed the glass ceiling before they turned 30, who are changing the world … Continue reading How do we measure success? →

More half-term antics!

This morning we were back to early rising, walking to school, and getting back into work* at our desks in the Sellars's office. The holiday week flew by, as half terms do, but that's mainly because it has been jam packed.  After our first visitors left, we spent a very pleasant Thursday evening eating out … Continue reading More half-term antics! →

Roads less travelled

To my shame, whilst I can get myself from A to B in England (even the epic journey from Bure Park, Bicester to Broad Haven, Pembrokeshire!) without requiring sat nav, it is taking a long time for me to find my sense of direction here. My new over-reliance on my phone for directions was highlighted … Continue reading Roads less travelled →

A lick & a promise…

The sun came streaming through the windows this afternoon.  Low in the sky, as it does in winter, RIGHT at the moment when Luke's new school friends and their mummies (most of whom I didn't yet know) arrived at our door to celebrate his birthday. Only a few hours earlier I'd actively decided to work … Continue reading A lick & a promise… →

Fancy a cuppa & a catch up?

Well, hello!  It's been a while, so how about a cuppa and a catch up? Luke and I are playing Gooey Looey*, so you'll have to bear with me if I shriek when the brain pops out... Aside from a quick trip to the GP with Joel on Christmas morning**, we had a gentle day.  … Continue reading Fancy a cuppa & a catch up? →

The more things change…

Every Sunday, on the way to and from church in Belfast, we pass this post box.  It's not very exciting, is it?  But this post box has a special place in my heart. It's the first thing I saw each morning for 4 years when I opened my bedroom curtains.  It's where I regularly posted … Continue reading The more things change… →

Marking time

We are thoroughly enjoying the usual half-term activities: exploring the local soft play; clambering through the grounds of a gorgeous National Trust property; and having lots of ice cream and cake treats in between meals.  Note, it's not raining! And yet, there are constant reminders that we're about to meet our new normal. The purchase … Continue reading Marking time →

What’s a Killultale?

In autumn 2018 our family moved from Bicester, Oxfordshire to Killultagh in N. Ireland.

These are the tales of the big move; settling in to our new home; and the ‘ever-after’…along with some photos so you can see how beautiful N.Ireland is!
