In October for my 30th I'm stand up paddleboarding the #Llangollen canal all 46 miles of it to raise money in aid of @WTWales. Look out for more details of how you can help me to fundraise soon.

Stop the red route! action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/66151/act…

Great call with local leisure centre this morning about offering aqua yoga classes!

Good morning! Soon these beautiful fields will be fenced off, sold and then built on if @ManMetUni have their way I really really hope we can stop that from happening. #saveryebankfields @ryebankfields

Leaving this here for another day... elemental.medium.com/theres-a-scien…

@Splodz I'm so frustrated!!!!!

@LLinWellies Indeed...

I admit I am utterly fed up of rule changes and mixed messaging. I totally understand we are living in a pandemic. Which in itself sucks. But our leaders have lost the plot. It's so hard to stay positive. Maybe this photo of a Highland Cow calf will help.

Camp food pre-made. Slow cooked sweet potato veggie chilli with nutritional yeast and cous - cous. Welcomed after a day of paddling!

@RuthRosselson What was considered going above and beyond will now become part of the job and expected. 🤣

My job used to be about community building, teaching resilience skills, and guided relaxations and meditations. Now we're doing everything online, I've had to become a tech expert too - walking participants through zoom, and helping them get confident with their tech.

@leannedowns Yes me too. I'm really bored of food altogether currently so I'm trying to make more of an effort!

@LLinWellies I get so bored of it so always looking for nice topping combos!

My #slowmoment of the day...

@leannedowns Haha it was YUM. I'm not a big porridge lover... but THIS has converted me for A/W.

@LLinWellies Okay I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow 😍

@RuthRosselson @ManchesterMind The best of success!

Taking a breather before session 1 of @ManchesterMind #mindfulness and #relaxation for #menopause and #perimenopause course. Really looking forward to running this and getting the group together for the first time.

@RuthRosselson Happy birthday!!!!

Well, I thought turning fifty in pandemic times was going to be full of tears and regrets for some reason but in fact so far it’s been wonderful, made by socially distant meet-ups, zumba and a fab partner who’s cooking me dinner as we speak.

@PGtips @sheilajohnson93 @YorkshireTea @tetleyuk @TwiningsUK Great to see you sticking to your principles! I'd rather have a split tea bag then a polluted planted.... now that spoils my tea!

@sheilajohnson93 @YorkshireTea @tetleyuk @TwiningsUK We’re so sorry to hear this. Switching to biodegradable tea bags hasn’t been without its challenges but we know how important this change is for the planet and cuppa lovers. Drop us a DM and we'll make this right for you. 💚❤️

What's left behind when you use a non-biodegradable teabag? @YorkshireTea @Tetleyuk @Twiningsuk It's time to join us and ditch the traditional plastics. We’re the ONLY major tea brand to have fully plant-based and biodegradable teabags. Until they ditch, #MakeTheSwitch

I loved teaching #outdooryoga tonight at #PlasNewydd. Feels nice to have semi normality in my life again!

I used yesterday's hide-inside day to (finally) write about The Brenig Way, a weekend-long multi-day hike and wild camping trip I had with @leannedowns @MissJTulip and @LLinWellies back in October. >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2020/08/25/bre… #BrenigWay #VisitWales #GetOutside #GoHiking

A lovely read - take me back! #NorthWales

First storm casualties - my tomatoes and baby marigolds! 😪

@Splodz @leannedowns @MissJTulip Well there's no reason why we can't arrange something again sometime. 😃

@leannedowns @LLinWellies @MissJTulip I know - and the world has changed considerably since then! Wish we could do stuff like that much more often.

It's horrible outside, so I'm (finally) writing a blog about my multi-day Brenig Way hike and first wild camping experience with @LLinWellies @leannedowns and @MissJTulip. A route I'd definitely recommend. #BrenigWay #VisitWales #GetOutside #OneHourOutside

@Splodz @leannedowns @MissJTulip Well it gives you the chance to dive back into your memory archives and relive nice things!

@LLinWellies @leannedowns @MissJTulip I really wish I'd written it straight away, it would make a much more story-focused blog, but alas I'm always behind and there is never enough time to catch up. It's nice to sit and think about the experience now though, it was an excellent weekend.
