Hi Christine, I am not sure what exactly HPP is, but I hope it’s something that can be treated and that you are not feeling unwell? The photographer for our photograph was the timer on my iPhone! We set it up and then had to pose! So glad you have a hair appointment – definitely go for a new style! I can’t wait to have mine done on Wednesday! Take care, love Ali x

Hi Ali, yes I think we were luckier than some – it was cloudy in the morning but from midday onwards the Sun was extraordinary. It’s stayed with us until 9:30 pm. I’m so glad you were also able to celebrate your anniversary before lockdown. Stay well and keep in touch, love Ali XX

Dear Sue, you may well be right! Thank you so much for your kind words – it wasn’t a good time for me and I’m very relieved to be feeling better. Love to you and yours, Ali XX

Hi Carol, good to hear from you and thank you for your kind words. Yes it’s one of those photographs that turned out better than we thought! I’ve been printing more photos off since I got my new printer from QVC and this may well be one of those That ends up in a frame! I do hope you and yours are well, and do keep in touch,Love Ali xx

Hello there Tina, I remember you telling me about your nursing career and as my friend Roz is a nurse I totally appreciate how worried you can get when you understand the full implications! I’m so glad you liked my moon photo – I also love the moon on the sea… A beautiful sight. I don’t think Colin used the attachment on the clippers which is why his hair was so short! As you say men – what are they like? 🙂 Yes I was glad to take the heart monitor off and your story of your blood pressure cuff reminds me of when I was giving birth to my son Jack and for some strange reason I had a blood pressure cuff on both arms! I had no idea what was going on! Feeling so much better I’m able to drive again and feeling like my old self. I hope you are well too. Love Ali XX

Hi there Sue, lovely to hear from you and thanks for the praise re Colin’s haircut! He looks like a larger version of the Action Man doll now with a suede style haircut! I hope you are safe and well, love Ali x

Jeanette, you are so kind! I’ve missed being on the ‘Q’ as well. I hope that you are safe and well and thank you for your good wishes, love Ali xx

Dear Maureen, lovely to hear from you and I’m so glad you are enjoying the story times. I too cannot believe it’s been five years since we got married – I remember our wedding as clear as it was yesterday. Take care, love Ali XX

Dear Kathryn, Thank you for your lovely anniversary wishes – I can’t believe that was two weeks ago! I think you may be right about the Covid testing – a great many of us who believed we had it I’ve been told we didn’t so who knows? It might have been what I had last month was Covid! It seems to take many different forms, but I know how incredibly lucky I am to be better now. I hope you are well and enjoy the sunshine, love Ali XX

… Yes Penny, there has definitely been a bit of that going on. Breathing deeply and leaving it all behind is a huge relief to me. Belated happy birthday wishes for the 7th and I hope you found something in the Diamonique show that you were able to treat yourself to. Enjoy the sunshine this coming week and keep in touch, love Ali XX
