So I am back from my holiday and pleased to say I survived the flight. I hope you have been enjoying the scheduled videos whilst I’ve been away, I recorded several videos before I left for my holiday for both the ScanNCut and sewing projects and they will be on my channel over the coming weeks.
I am hoping to be able to get back to doing some live streams as well once I get unpacked and catch up on a few other things.
Just days before I left for my holiday I arrived home to find this, an inner glass panel of my double glazed sun room roof had exploded, apparently because of the severe heat, luckily I wasn’t sat there, this is normally my favourite place to sit.
It’s been an eventful few weeks for me, just two days before this happenened I had only just got my car back from the garage, it had been in there for a week for body repair work.
I somehow managed to get caught up in a police, stolen car stand off and the thieves in the stolen car barged my car out of the way to try to escape, and I was left with the whole side of my car dented and scratched.
So as I’ve not flown for nearly 30 years, and don’t like flying the prospect of having to get on a plane with these two incidents still fresh in my thoughts was very unnearving, but Ive survived, thankfully.
Ive enjoyed my holiday in the South of France and been into nearby Cannes a few times via boat which was lovely and spent one day in Monaco, Hannah and I have just relaxed and chilled and done just whatever we wanted to do, but I have to say I looked forward to coming home and sleeping in my own bed, there’s nothing quite like it really is there.
I have some busy times ahead with Hannah’s golf over the coming months, she has been accepted to play in the Abraham trophy which is a competition to find England girls most improved golfer based on handicap reduction, basically any girl with a 20 handicap or less who’s handicap had reduced considerably last season was able to submit 6 of their best rounds of golf from last year on courses home and away.
53 girls entered only 20 are chosen to play an 18 hole final in Hampshire UK in early August, Hannah got in which is amazing and in the same week at the same course she can apply to play in the England U16 girls championships, so I could be going off to Hampshire for a week in August!
She has also qualified to enter the English schools U16 championships, in the Midlands this is because she has got her handicap below 12 but we won’t know for about a week if she will be accepted or if she can play just because of other commitments but its great that she is getting these opportunities, as she is dedicated and practices all the time.
All this is on top of her weekly club golf competitions, matches she plays for her club and matches she plays for her County.
It’s a busy time for her and me as a taxi service and financier!
Anyway I hope you are ok and I will try and get back into the swing of things soon.
Welcome home so sorry hear of your recent scrapes but thankfully you we able to have a lovely break

I know what a nightmare, we have solid floors too, no carpet so as the glass hit the floor it just spread everywhere. I brushed and hoovered up but little shards are still falling, but as I was going away I literally closed the door on the room and didn’t go near. I have to get the window people in now to measure and replace it.
I never knew glass could explode like that with heat, we’ve had this roof nearly 7 yrs its a bit worrying but i will have to start leaving the internal doors open on hot days to try and circulate the air more, we are south facing so it does get very hot.
my goodness Ann you certainly have had an eventful life recently. Hope things settle down and get back to normal for you before too long. At least you enjoyed your holiday (that’s if you can still remember it amongst all the other stuff that went on) lol Take care.
Sorry to hear your tale but glad you were not hurt by any of it. Congratulations to Hannah she is doing so well last long may it continue. xxx
I am glad you safe now – the glass incident and terrifying car drive sounds too much – I am so please you had a lovely holiday in France – we are in the depths of winter in Australia but we are familiar with heatwaves and they are not easy! Take care

What delightful news about Hannah! Well done to her. I am glad you enjoyed your holiday after the trauma of the roof and the car too. Looking forward to your next live streaming – I enjoy all your videos as I find them absolutely great and informative. Thanks for all your efforts. Greatly appreciated.
I wish Hannah all the luck with her golf and thank for sharing your knowledge x
Good grief Ashley….you sure did have a lot on your plate before you left for your vacation. I am glad that you and Hannah had a safe flight to and from France. Most of all….I am glad you both had a great vacation.
Hi, I know thank you, things always seem to happen at once don’t they?
Hannah and I had a nice time it was very hot but enjoyable, our apartment is in La Napoule close to Cannes so we had a boat ride in a couple of days and spent a day in Monaco and just relaxed and chilled.
What a busy, busy life you lead. Glad you had a lovely holiday. Xxxx
