  • Flowers

    Q. Have you ever received flowers as a gift?

    I have received carefully selected flowers from various sources—friends, loved ones, and other gardens—but the one that remains most memorable to me is from after the tragic loss of my boyfriend in an accident. Upon returning to work, I found a small arrangement of hand-picked flowers placed at my workstation, accompanied by a heartfelt note. This gesture was remarkably touching, quite unexpected, and it provided me with comfort during a difficult period.

    The individual responsible demonstrated a truly compassionate nature.

  • To Trust Or Not To Trust? That Is The Question

    Q. Are you very trusting of a partner, Frances?

    A. Ooh. That’s a good question. 🙂 It is unfair to assume that an individual does not trust their partner. Trust levels are highly dependent on the individual concerned. If someone is in a relationship and engages in infidelity,

    it is understandable that their partner might be less trusting of them. Discovering that a partner has been unfaithful can be profoundly upsetting for those who are in love.

    While I was in a relationship with someone, I read the “Fifty Shades” trilogy, which includes some explicit reading that stimulates the imagination. This raises questions about whether engaging with such material constitutes a breach of trust. Where should the boundary be drawn between maintaining trust and engaging in personal interests or fantasies? 🙂

  • Just Relaxing :)

    I’m sitting back, and I am relaxing. 😌

    It’s that laid-back, no-rush kind of vibe where you’re settled in, comfortably, and you’re just letting time pass easily. You’re sitting back—maybe on a sofa or chair—remote control or mobile phone in hand, casually scrolling through Facebook without pressure to win or grind. The focus isn’t intensity; it’s enjoyment. Snacks nearby, background music, shoulders relaxed, mind unwinding.
    This feels like switching off stress. It’s low energy, cosy, and I am feeling content. The goal is to feel good. I’m just chilling.😃

  • Happy New Year

    I am unsure about others, but I traditionally take down my Christmas decorations on the 6th of January.

    Religiously and culturally, Christmas decorations are typically removed on Twelfth Night (5th January) or the Feast of the Epiphany (6th January).

    Today marks what I consider the final day of the Christmas period and a fresh start to the new year. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and prosperous New Year 2026.

    Last year was particularly challenging for me, as we experienced the loss of a family member just before Christmas.

    The year has been one of mourning and learning to cope with difficult circumstances. Coming to terms with the loss of loved ones can be a profound challenge.

    As we move forward, I am hopeful for a year filled with better times.

    Warm regards,
    Frances

  • Wild London

    It’s such an amazing programme. David Attenborough is simply the “Best of British.”
