I do not live far away from Cambridge and I enjoy my travels to Cambridge occasionally. Sometimes I meet my daughter for lunch, or I love to travel on my own.

It’s the end of an era. It’s always poignant when eras come to a close.
We are presently going through changes within our family circumstances. I used to pop home regularly, to visit family members, even after my divorce 18 years ago. Unfortunately, things have now changed and Stamford will become just a memory .
Some of you already know that my dad passed away 7 years ago, however, I still had a good reason to visit Stamford regularly however, I probably won’t have a good reason to visit the old market town as often anymore, because my stepmothe does not reside there anymore. I probably do not have a good enough reason to visit my old home town quite as often now.
We are now going through a transition period in the family. I will possibly visit Stamford to shop occasionally, however, this is where the story ends hometown.
Goodbye Stamford

It was such a lovely day today. I decided to take a drive to Bourne Abbey.

I am not really a singer, but I love to sing. Lol I have only sung in public on one occasion. Below are two recent songs I have tried singing. I find singing can be relaxing and fun.
I love to sing on Smule occasionally when I am not at work. I sing female vocals only. 🙂
