Goodbye 2022. It’s been great, sad, wonderful, exciting, hard work, anxious and human - all in equal measure. To all my friends, best wishes for 2023. (at Adelaide, South Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm1NmcNpJUL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The office phones are in holiday mode, the kitchen is buzzing with cooking noises, there are cheesy biscuits a plenty, Christmas undies on, some delightful music playing and a lovely weather day or three ahead. Quite pleased with the year’s outcome, and also really looking forward to a few days rest. Now… to promise myself to do all those chores I’ve been putting off since last Christmas! All the very best to you and yours this Season. Take care, pace yourselves and remember those around you (near and far) that need a bit of extra care, and support, at this time of year. #xmas #2022 (at Adelaide, South Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmhtFKoB8xg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Welcome back to #doomscrolling friends. Does it feel like a comfy, well-loved chair? Or more like a worn piece of underwear, lacking support? #auspol https://www.instagram.com/p/CYDU2FHpoYs/?utm_medium=tumblr
