She’s written several children’s books (Coming Home, Face at the Window, Secrets, and The Boy and the Monkey).

Her love of history is found in her non-fiction works Oil under Sherwood Forest; The Clumber Love Story; and The Hardwick Love Story (about Lady Arbella Stuart).
Her passion for all the diversions the local English countryside has to offer is creatively woven throughout her travel blog, and her tourist booklets for historical locations such as Thorsby Hall and Elvaston Castle:
“I live in the heart of England near the very famous Sherwood forest – the hiding place of Robin Hood. I love going out and about, so my heavily illustrated, detailed blog describes the places I’ve visited and what I thought about them. It’s ideal for people planning a visit, armchair travellers, or Anglophiles living abroad.”
Her charitable interests include working with Lepra (that compelled her to write Every 4 Minutes, which is how often someone is diagnosed with leprosy), and Tools with a Mission that started when a Baptist minister realised the things people throw away could change people’s lives.
Her Healing Hands volunteer service provides tools, techniques and distant healing for people no matter where they’re located, which was the genesis for her book, “THE POWER OF DISTANT HEALING.”

'The Dog at Chatsworth' Exhibition - Chatsworth - Derbyshire

The latest exhibition at Chatsworth celebrates everything doggy. The idea came from the Duchess of Devonshire who says, on a large banner at the beginning
'Dogs have been part of life with the Devonshire family and in the landscape at Chatsworth for hundreds of years. This deep connection continues, and now dogs are also made welcome in our garden. It is a great pleasure for me to watch visitors Read more of this blog post »

Hi Peter
How nice to hear from you. I wont be going physically to the Games - just glued to the TV! One concern this week is that the Opening Ceremony is from 9pm til midnight - so how do they get the vast crowds home when public transport doesn't run through the night?
What over-paid brain box worked that one out!
Best wishes Janet

Hello Janet,
hope all is well. I usually get my international news from BBC and it's all about the Olympics.Just two more days. London appears to be quite hectic. Will you be going to any of the games? If so then that would be exciting. All the best, Peter
