Hi Clare, spooky I was only looking into the Wild merchandise the other day it sounds so good just wish more people would get onboard & look after our planet as well as our health because like you say those aerosols can’t be good for our breathing. Ooh how nostalgic were those books my older sister has all the famous five books on display (which she nabbed from her 3 sisters to get the full set)!!🤣how colourful were those little flowers can’t wait to see how you present them. Lovely to see you hun take care & see you soon.🤗💐📚

Hello Andie , You’re absolutely right , we should all be doing “our bit” to help our poorly planet. I was quite excited when Wild approached me and I hand on heart can say that I’m not disappointed with the product so far. Aren’t those books just lovely 🥰 I adore them just as much now if not more . Had to chuckle at your sister nabbing your books Andie 🤣🤣 that’s something I may have done too! So lovely to see you as always, I hope you’re super good! 😊🥰 xx

My Poppy has always got her head in a book. She absolutely loves reading. Mum had her diagnosis. Like we all thought it's Vascular Dementia. It's so rapidly developing that she's literally changing day by day. It's heartbreaking but we are making the most of every moment when she's having a good day. Take care hun.xx🌺⚘🌻🌹
