Today I gave blood

I know a lot of people whose lives have been affected by cancer – thinking of three families at the moment in particular. Cancer patients often need blood transfusions or blood products.

As friends of the cancer patient or their family, we can often feel impotent – as if there is nothing we can do to help. But there is – we can give blood, or donate money to charities who do amazing work, like @macmillancancer and @clicsargent

Give blood, if you can. It takes less than an hour, they treat you like a rock star and you get a free cuppa and choccie biccies. And you can justifiably have KFC for lunch.

It’s been a while since I last posted…

but last night’s climbing was awesome. New greens @edenrockedinburgh and lots of fun with good pals. A great way to spend a Friday night.

Pint for Frank number 20

In the ⁦‪@BushmillsInn‬⁩ with a best friend from teenage years. Frank loved Lisa and would definitely have approved of this one.

Normal service has resumed

After a couple of glorious weeks in France, now back at the climbing @edenrockedinburgh for Ladies’ Night. It was a real challenge (and lots of fun) last night, but onwards and upwards.

My Griseldaaaaa holiday study score.

Lucas and Orla made it and I love it. I hope it won’t get ruined when I’m by the pool…. it’s me in the pink dress, singing ‘aaaaaa’, apparently.

Loved climbing last night

Playing ‘climbing golf’ trying to do problems ‘under par’. A brilliant form of exercise and great for the mind too. If anything is going to get me out of a head funk, it’s climbing with this group of supportive, encouraging, funny women. #singerswhoclimb #soprano #irishsinger
