Who else has been caught out by this stinking cold? It seems to have got so many of us this year and while I\u2019m not a fan of cold weather, I\u2019m ready for a cold snap to kill all the germs\u2026 well that\u2019s what they say happens at least, and I reckon the proof is in the pudding!<\/p>\n<\/a>\n So, sneezes and sore throats aside, life goes on and I have to say September has flown by for me this year. Usually, I find it a long month with the strains of back to school routine always being a bit of a bummer after a lovely summer break, but this year it\u2019s whizzing by\u2026 we did however, in that final snap of beautiful weather, manage to slip in our traditional back to school row along the river Avon!<\/p>\n<\/a>\n It seems we have been ticking off all the lasts of summer, my last bunch of sunflowers, my last swing in the hammock, (oh it was super easy to Frogsuit<\/a><\/strong> the wood ahead of this rain!!) and my last morning coffee in my Miami bistro set<\/a> before taking the cushions into the garage for their winter snooze ready for all of this rain we are now having! The perks of being a QVC Presenter are many (for example, I would never have otherwise come across Frogsuit<\/a><\/strong>!), another being that we are given products to road test, not just for on air purposes, but also for our blogs and it’s NEVER a chore when a box of something like L\u2019Occitane<\/a><\/strong> shows up in my dressing room with the request for testing and writing about\u2026 oh if I must then \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<\/a>\n
