Saturday morning errands are one of my favourite things. And in the HEAT of summer (and yes, it is still summer and still HOT here) it is always best to get out early in order to get errands done.

In fact, it’s taken some time to get used to being alone on holiday here in Zahara. I know some of you think this is like a dream come true, but I came here not just to spend some time at the beach and take care of Mini – it was also a personal challenge. I really wasn’t sure how I’d feel being on my own for a whole ten days. And now it’s day four …
