It’s been a busy couple of weeks with Easter services to sing at and the children on Easter holidays as well as the occasional beer garden to sit in! But there are lots of exciting things in the pipeline that I’m looking forward to sharing with you all ♥️

Jumping on this bandwagon for a moment (sorry)

Amen to this. Be kind ♥️

Happy Easter from the beautiful Kent coast where we are spending a few days staying with my parents and enjoying some sea air! Roast turkey is in the oven cooking for later and we are having a couple of drinks outside while the weather is pleasant

Venes regrets is the song following the song I sang in my previous video. The page bindings of RCM1070 suggest these songs were later additions to the book. The previous song described the promises of love. This song is a doleful lament, filled with regrets of the heart!

Here’s to strong women
May we know them
May we be them
May we raise them

A little later in period than the Tudors, but some glorious early music nonetheless. Come and see me in wonderful company performing Couperin’s Leçons de Ténèbres in Greenwich on Palm Sunday as part of the solemn Holy Week

I know I’m mega late to the party with this but AAAAAAAAAAAH SIX 👑 IS UNBELIEVABLY BRILLIANT!! What a triumph 👑 the perfect balance of informative, funny, cheeky and not too serious, while making some excellent social observations and empowering the QUEENS!

I was reading The Mirror And The Light and there is one sentence where Jane Seymour is reported as eating fat, roasted quail, rubbed with spices and basted in honey. I’ve been thinking of little else since and have been desperate to recreate the dish! I’m obsessed! Delicious!

Happy Valentine’s Day ♥️🌹 let’s celebrate love 🥰

My own little princess turns 11 years old today! Here she is last year being a young girl princess Elizabeth. I’ll have to get her in costume again soon for a more up to date picture ♥️

I’ve been at Leeds Castle, Kent today, but not as a Tudor! Today is my daughter’s birthday and she wanted to do Go Ape with one of her friends. Let me tell you, this is NOT for the faint hearted. I am physically and mentally exhausted but I’m very proud of myself. Wine O Clock? 🍷

Exciting delivery 📦♥️🌹
