How are you all doing?

It's the last full moon of 2025 tonight and as I've posted a few times before, a full moon may as well be a magnifying glass for your emotions.

So if you're on the up - fantastic!
If you're struggling, hang in there, the moon will be on it's way tomorrow and you'll have made it through the height of the magnified emotions.

This is the night time view from our garden gate. I am pinching myself, really. It is so beautiful.

Work begins today on trying to arrange the new Lilac Room therapy space here in Scotland... then again, maybe I should wait until the moon settles down for that kind of chaos 🤔

I will be checking in with you guys as things take shape here. There will be a new name for the business - because the room is currently green, with an enormously high ceiling and huge curtains! None of that lends itself to a Lilac makeover 😄

Maybe simply "Wish at Rockbank".
Virtual Counselling appointments are available from next week, via telephone, WhatsApp or Teams.

In my absence, I hope you are all getting along nicely with Mari (the Aura Restorer) for your reflexology and head massage fixes 😊

Driving the hour from Oban to Ardrishaig yesterday.

Temps between 1°C and 4°C depending on whether the sun had warmed the ground.

It was like driving through a Christmas card along the coastal road.

It's a good job the roads are in better nick than the A120... lots of ditches and steep drops 😬

Of course, it started raining as soon as we passed the Welcome to Scotland sign! Then we had snow... and a bit of a wind...

Of course, it started raining as soon as we passed the Welcome to Scotland sign! Then we had snow... and a bit of a wind storm, enough to set off the "bonnet open" alarm on the jeep 😆

But it was worth the long drive to arrive at our new home and see our first sunset there.

01/12/2025

We arrived properly at the new house yesterday.
The sunset is simply breathtaking here ❤️

I was lucky enough to see a kingfisher fly past, low over the water, right in front of me as I was looking over the garden wall.

What a wonderful welcome to our new home

That's it.

The Lilac Room is empty and clean.

We are having leaving drinks at Wetherspoons from 8pm tomorrow (thursday) evening if you'd like to see us off.

The Pickfords removals guys have been the BEST.
Kind, polite, efficient, hard working. We couldn't have asked for better.

The two main guys are on a new job tomorrow but they have been terrific. I am so grateful.

Big Steve is with us again for day 3 tomorrow, with a new guy, a freshly qualified lad called Hayden.

The house is echoing and the guys have been so efficient with packing, they even packed the paper plates and napkins I left out (feeling smart!) for our microwave tea 😄.

If anyone can help with taking a washing machine to Wivenhoe for a fosterpug mum in a pickle tomorrow that would be amaaaaazing. Hers has broken and she has 3 tiddly fosters plus Alysha at the moment. The jeep is already packed with things and we are leaving the house tomorrow so we can't take it to her.

It's been wonderful seeing you all here, through the last 12 years of The Lilac Room at Mayes Lane.
Huge thanks to each and every one of you, for making my job a joy.

Mari is already looking after many of you and will continue to be a tranquil port in a storm in times of need, or simply to help you take care of you ❤️

We will be on the road from Friday, and will arrive at our new home on Sunday. Our belongings will join us on Tuesday next week, so it may be a topsy turvey few days 😬

What a beautiful place. We can't wait to get there.

Our future is here.

We finally managed to exchange on the house and we have a move date 😊

We will be leaving town on Friday 28th Nov.

On Thursday 27th Nov, we will be in Wetherspoons and would love to raise a glass with anyone who is able to join us from 8pm.

The picture below, is our garden gate to Loch Fyne. Rockbank's current owner says if you leave the gate open, you get otters on the lawn!

Adventure awaits ✨️

Another step in the move process.. the cars left home yesterday and will arrive in Ardrishaig this morning.

See you soon, cheery yellow Juke 🤗

This is Mari, the lady to whom I've entrusted the ongoing care of my precious Lilac Room peeps.

She is up and running now, and able to book you in at her new snazzy workspace, or arrange a home visit for you.

Lilac Room peeps can have a special introductory price and Mari plans to keep your pricing level with mine, going forward. So it's VIP treatments for you guys 🤗

A few of you have already been for first treatments with Mari and the feedback has been glowing reports all round. It's good to know I am leaving you all in safe hands 🤗

It's been quite the day.
Got stuck in an hour long traffic jam on what should have been a 20 minute drive.
BUT - whilst stationary, did some Scottish Gaelic Duolingo, saw the most marvellous shooting star in the clear night sky, AND we had snacks, 'coz we'd picked up a Too Good To Go from Pret 🤗.

So it was actually a really fuel efficient road trip, with learny stuff, galactic entertainment and a sandwich.

Not so bad.
Not so bad at all.
And the Dogs Trust were very happy with their boxes of donations.

And to top it all off... my new Otter swim cozzie arrived. Ready for Ottering about in Scotland. Yay!

Still no move date... more news on that after thursday 😬

We still don't have a confirmed move date

But the universe has the reins and we are trusting the system 😊

Our motorbikes left home yesterday, on the first leg of their journey to Scotland. We will see them again when we arrive. George, and my husband's 2 bikes are in safe hands and right now, they are enjoying heated winter quarters with the storage company.

We are due to exchange (2nd attempt) on Thursday 20th and if that's sucessful, we will have a definate move date for the diary.

If we hit another speedbump, we will likely have another Christmas here, and more time to huck out, and walk by the sea, before we go. If that happens, I will have some bonus work days and will be super happy to see some of you again before we leave ❤️

So we are not stressed (we hucked out the wine cupboard today 😆), we are trusting the process, we know everything is lining up in our best intrest and the universe has our back.

We have lovely people waiting to live here, and a beautiful home waiting for us north of the border.

And.... that's a wrap 🙌

The end of the last day at work in Harwich.

Huge, huge thanks to everyone who has supported this small business through the last 21 years. I have loved it. Your trust in me has been humbling. It's been an honour and a privilege to be in your corner when you've needed me.

For my counselling clients - I will not be out of reach. I am grateful that you have all chosen to switch to online/telephone appointments. Thank you.

For my reflexology, massage, and "double whammy" peeps - I am leaving you in safe hands with Mari (The Aura Restorer).

I know Mari is going to enjoy her new job as much as I have mine, because of YOU! You're amazing.

A few of you have asked for updates on our Scottish adventure so I will post here when we arrive.

In the meantime - we STILL don't have a date set in stone, but it will be very soon.

This is the location of the new, Scottish, Lilac Room.
