My creative journey on my sabbatical in India and beyond
I love this museum. It is such fun and so inspiring. They have this special section to help accommodate those with disabilities. Having fun with the toys! There were a load of rubber families of 6 colours. Firstly they went and stood up in the wooden village. I have this wonderful if rather tatty orange …

Following an adventurous trip with Carlos around Puebla and London, Carlos came with me to a short but wonderful trip with my daughter Betsy to Padua before he returns as Rafi’s pink mascot. And 2 short videos of Carlos enjoying himself.
Carly is a bit ’out there’. She has been a paediatrician for a long time now. She does enjoy working with children, but she finds most babies rather dull. Give her an adolescent any day. At work Carly loves to muck around. She can be idiotic, but not stupid. Sometimes this can be a problem, …
Printing elephants; napkins for Tova, a bolster and a bed cover for the feet. I go to Tova a lot. Like really a lot! And this last time she commissioned a table cloth (plain purple rectangle) and 6 white napkins with a purple elephant or two. Always delighted to have another project I set about …

So it started with my neighbours. Now, it has become a full blown Barbie obsession. Here Mermaid Barbie goes to Limnisa (Limnisa for writers) where I go twice a year for a writing retreat. Purple Mermaid Barbie really does have a fun time!
Of course, like everything, there are lots of reasons, Carly muses. It is warm and different from home and not too far. The light of the Mediterranean is magical. When Carly thinks of Greece, she always thinks of this colour combination. Fuchsia pink (of the bougainvillea) Bottle green (of the fir trees) Bright white (of …
Like many things in life, jogging is probably good for Carly. Her knees are up for it. She has the right sports bra, and some patched up, sort-of-ok trainers. But she can’t really say she actually enjoys jogging. All that talk about the endorphin rush at the end. No. Carly doesn’t experience that. Maybe because she …
