So, got back from Cuba this week – we had a hurricane.. oh the joy!
Luckily those Cuban skies managed to shed the thick gray cloud for 3 or 4 of the 14 days, so we were blessed with some baking hot sunshine.

The first week back at work was difficult. Firstly catching up with work from the previous 2 weeks, but mainly down to travel fatigue. Due to the timing of the flight back, we ended up traveling for around 18 hours in total [including the drive back from Manchester], and at that point it was 9:15am UK time… so a looooong day with no sleep.

I’m so grateful it’s a Saturday! Knowing I have a whole day of nothingness ahead of me makes me happy! Tonight we’re off to see a Rat Pack tribute band – should be fun! but right now, i need coffee… and there’s none to be found so I’m roasting a fresh batch as we speak…

Gimme the bean juice!!

I’m sure I’ve covered Sunday Secrets before (?), but simply put, it’s a public domain for peoples inner secrets. People Anonymously create / send postcards to a real life address to a guy named Frank Warren, who then selectively puts them onto a blog every Sunday – you can even buy books compiled solely of this art work! (see amazon links)

I love the concept, the idea of being able to open up and ‘get something off your chest’ for the whole world to see, without consequence. Personally, I’m a very ‘open’ person anyway, but reading other peoples secrets is a really odd experience!

Here are a couple of picks from this weeks post:
