Sitting here and writing a Hello September post seems mental! August feels like it has flown by but then when I look back at all we have done I don’t know how we fit it into one month. August has been full of; Fun days out Seeing friends & family Paddling in the sea Dressing up & new adventures! I tell you what I haven’t done a lot of.. Work!

Wednesday night I was invited down to the brand new Be At One cocktail bar in Bournemouth to check it out and join in with a cocktail masterclass.
