These days have been lots of time spent at home. Painting, decorating, chopping firewood and just enjoying the new space. This house feels like a proper home, and for the first time I really appreciate just spending the day in the house, doing some random task like painting kitchen tiles (always lots of mess, see second photo).

The latest coastal walks. The fish quay, Whitley Bay, and Alnmouth, We haven’t been going too far lately, being content to just wander round our regular haunts. We’re saving the big exploring and proper road trips for next year.
