Hi,<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s been a few weeks since my last blog \u2013 I hope everyone is well and has been enjoying the recent good weather. I had a few days’ holiday in July, and for the first time since last October we had a few days away and went off to stay in a hotel in Berkshire. We had a lovely restful weekend, going for walks and eating and drinking a bit too much! We visited the beautiful Cliveden House where we thoroughly enjoyed wandering around the gardens (it\u2019s set in 376 acres of National Trust grounds, which are really stunning) and generally just chilled out after a very busy few months. And yes, that\u2019s my Frank Usher denim jacket<\/a> I\u2019m wearing in the photo above!<\/span><\/p>\n\n In contrast, I\u2019ve also run another half marathon since I last blogged. I heard there were a few spaces left in an event called the Music Shuffle run in Surrey, so I entered last minute and really enjoyed it. The medal is amazing too – it features Queen (the band not the monarch!). I\u2019m upping my running again now ahead of a big charity running event I\u2019ve entered in October \u2013 more details on that nearer the time! I\u2019m just trying not to overdo it and get injured before then\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n\n Work is busy as always, and we\u2019ve been delighted to welcome two lovely new presenters, Ophelia Dennis<\/a> and Annaliese Dayes<\/a>, to our happy band. Do check out their blogs and follow them on social media – they\u2019re both so excited to be here, and we\u2019re so happy to have them. They\u2019ve been shopping already (no surprises there!) and getting excited about our Today\u2019s Special Value offers<\/a>, which brings me nicely to a good one which is coming up next week (Monday 9th).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
