Absence makes the heart grow fonder – definitely.

I know I have not blogged in a while, and it is not for lack of desire to, or lack of things to say. Quite the opposite. I am overwhelmed with things I want to express, talk about and record about this particular time of my life that has been quite frankly so perfect I cannot describe. So much is happening from book publishings to launching new websites to talk of new books, TV documentaries and exhibitions…fulfilment of my wildest dreams and beyond.
So to keep this brief, I will tell you what has just happened. Something quite remarkable. This picture will help set the scene.  It was taken a couple of days ago and is of me cantering aboard my wonderful old friend Millie through her field up by the cliffs in Alderney…moments after my lovely boyfriend decided it was time to secure a future with me before I zot off around the world again! He knelt, he asked, I said yes; and Millie was our witness.
It would seem that absence certainly can make the heart grow fonder. Good news and happy times.

    Hi astrid,

    You prob won’t remember me from uni but I was Alex’s girlfriend (and now wife!) And lived with mark and the boys.

    I love your blog and your work. It’s amazing and very inspiring.

    Lovely news you’re getting married and excellent to see how well you’re doing and the passion you obviously have for your fantastic work!
