Hi Denise
Nice to hear from another East Midlands girl and apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
I really like the new formula of the Divine Eye cream – I’m always so nervous when a formula is changed but L’Occitane did well with this one 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You mentioning all the 9ld party games reminded me of the ‘pink party’ I threw about ten years ago to raise money for Breast Cancer charities. We played most of the old fashioned games which became more hilarious the more ‘pink’ wine was consumed.
I now do weekly blogs on my author website if you like to keep a weekly eye on me

Hi Janice
We are inching towards being able to go out safely – I’m not going to rush too much but it would be nice to go out to celebrate my birthday in early June – I hope you will be able to celebrate yours in style too.
As I’ve said in other replies, I now do a weekly blog on my author website if you’re interested.
Love

Hi Graham
Wow! Is it really the first time you’ve seen my blog – I’ve been writing one a week for over ten years & you discover it just as I’ve been reduced to one a fortnight 😆 I do now write a weekly one on my author website where you can find out about my other books as well as my crime series if you’re interested.
Love

Hi Karen
Apologies for the delay in replying – still getting used to this once a fortnight! You can catch up weekly on my author website if you would like.
I was working Mother’s Day but the family still managed to spoil me

Hi Liz
Apologies for the delay in replying to you but thanks for all your kind remarks. If you do want to catch up with me weekly, I now do a weekly blog on my own author website.
I wonder if you’ve watched any of the other Permission to Pry episodes? They’ve all been really good fun to do but no-one has topped Glen’s maggoty cheese 😱
I guess you will be pretty busy now the salons have re-opened – my appointment is next Tuesday.
Love

Good luck on your career as a crime novelist.

Take care.

Graham

Towards the end of last year as we were in lockdown and not doing any socialising etc I decided to try and be a bit economical and stopped using the eye cream. We spent Christmas Day with our son,daughter in law and little grandson. We took a few photos and when I saw one of myself with my grandson I was aghast at how awful my eye area looked. Hence I made a speedy return back to using the eye cream. Glad to say it didn’t take long to see a definite improvement. Won’t make that mistake again! I’ve even started to use the Divine cream on the rest of my face and love it.
What a lovely thing you did for Katie please pass on my Congratulations to her. My husband had a lockdown Birthday last week. It coincided with the day we provide childcare for our grandson who when I told him and that there would be cake and presents reminded me not to forget pass the parcel so hey that’s what we did. An old fashioned party with balloons, pass the parcel, musical statues etc. I have to say it was great fun. Amazing how we adapt to the situation eh!
I hope you have a lovely Mother’s Day and yes your mum looks amazing can’t believe she is 95 must be that East Midlands air ( I’m one myself). I lost my mum recently and it’s my first without her but will raise a glass to her and remember happy times.

Take care,
Denise
