Clem and Meg, Thomas and Athena

I came across this hidden stone a couple of months ago. It is not in a particular beauty spot and it is well hidden. I have no idea who these four people are. Their names are certainly crying out for...

A Blonde Office

I have never had an office before; I have shared many offices, along with their over-stuffed cardboard boxes, piles of mouldy cups and suspiciously smelling fridges. Now that I am working from home,...
