Who's done their bird watch?
I'll be doing mine tomorrow morning at breakfast time 😃
An hour of doing nothing, except stare at the garden and it's visitors, bliss 😊 Jan x

Aaaand we’re off! The Big Garden Birdwatch has begun! 🙌

You’ve got until the end of Sunday to do your hour of birdwatching and note down every bird that lands in your area 🐦‍⬛

So who will get a full sweep on this bingo card? And who will be too distracted by a pretty Robin to even notice? 👀

The Friday walk was in a mix of mist, sun and rain, each created beautiful light and shade, finishing with a rainbow 😃 I even found some lingering fungi 😃 Have a fabulous weekend everyone. Jan x

Some great ways to help wildlife and have a mindful moment 😀 Who's joining in?
I'm signed up to the RSPB Garden Bird Watch again. An hour of watching the birds with no distractions, bliss 😌

Today is a very special day for me, it's 21 years since I left the world of employment as a graphic designer, and ventured into the unknown of self-employment as a massage therapist.
It's been an amazing 21 years helping people, through therapies that I totally love 😁
I've met wonderful people, learned a lot, had some fabulous adventures, and this year is going to be bigger and better.
Thank you, to every one of my clients, to those people who have supported me, offered advice, and kept me going when things got tough.
Watch this space for exciting news, coming soon... Jan xx

That's a wrap 😃 time for some rest and relaxation.
Wishing everyone a Very Merry Christmas.

Thank you to my wonderful clients for supporting me through another year, I am very grateful.

I will be closed until Monday 5th January, which is the date I started Holistic Hideaway 21 years ago!
Then the party will begin, as I celebrate those 21 years in business. Keep an eye out for some special events next year 🥂🍾🎂🥳 Jan xx

We need help to feed our farm animals this winter. The hay harvest was very poor for everyone, so we need your help to buy in some more hay.
