January can be a tough time of year, that's why The Samaritans have made today, 16th January, "Brew Monday" to remind us all to look after our mental health by reaching out and connecting with family, friends, and colleagues - so start a conversation over a brew today.

First day back in the office and first meeting booked for 10.00am – hitting the ground running!

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

Shutting the office today for the holidays as we are all packed and ready to set off on the long drive up to Scotland for the Christmas festivities.

An autumnal texture shot taken on today's walk – think this might work as a card image.
