I had a bit of an unintentional break from blogging this month as I was super busy with a couple of trips away from home. My second trip was to visit my brother to watch his final recital at music college and to celebrate his birthday. We spent a nice few days together and took these photos in one of our favourite parts of Leeds by the canal. We almost always go for a walk in the same place when I visit, so it's nice to have some pictures of us together here.








See if you can tell (or remember, if you've been reading my blog for a while) which of us is the older sibling. We kept a few people guessing at the weekend.



Despite the wind, the weather wasn't too bad, although I'm still waiting for the summer to properly arrive. I've started wearing some shoes that I save mostly for the warmer months, like this pair from Deichmann. They were cheap but they're so pretty and span a range of decades really nicely even though they're modern. They're starting to wear out now and I'm wishing I'd bought several pairs! There are never enough good shoes in my life.
