    Hi Keith – I enjoy mine … stops me eating too!

    Enjoy something more inspiring in about an hour … something to settle in with while the rain comes down.

    Stay safe – Hilary

        Well usually, I don’t want to be influenced but other times, I want to find an original take and so I read some (plus at only 38 words, not too big a task)

        I’ve done the same. So often, contributors tell the same story but with different words!
