A truly fabulous family occasion - the Twins 80th birthday. Gathering at a sunny seaside deck and garden, a feast of food, and the 80 year old twin sisters opening gifts.

Fairlight Station and homestead, Southland. Wonderful visit to talk about their all female shepherds internship programme.
Finished reading: Lie With Me by Philippe Besson 📚
A gloriously written story of hidden first love in 1980s provincial France, reminding us of the loss, pain and wasted opportunities created by social oppression. The final pages pack an incredible punch that will stay with me for a very long time.
The fact I was a teenager in this time period and had lived in France only a few years earlier deepened the impact on me significantly. Philippe Besson is incredible.
