As we near the summer, so the time has come to look for the summer hats.

We have a selection of large straw ones, some caps that have fabric that covers your neck, and a few that look like you should be found fishing.

As I walked through the park this morning, I noticed two things:

The amount of dogs being walked and the easy way people with dogs talk to other people with dogs;

And the amount of people who were doing their morning workout with a personal trainer.

My wife and I were having a conversation the other day about previous schools our children had been to when they were younger.

We thought of the uniforms and the teachers all the school fairs and nativity plays we had been to over the years.

It feels like we live in a world where everything gets shortened.

Tender loving care becomes TLC.

Laugh Out Loud becomes LOL.

I still think BTW means Best Wishes but apparently it means By The Way.

I went to a training day about social media a few years ago.

It was about ‘How to get the best out of social media for your charity’.

But the first question threw me: How many different social media platforms are there?

Well I sat and thought…Facebook, Twitter and Whatsapp…and felt fairly confident that I’d got most of them. The answer was: Lots, dozens in fact!

And the following questions were: How many do you use and Do they work for you?

And the answer that kept coming through the day was ‘If it works for you then great, but when the fun stops – stop!’

Part of you says ‘Yay, It’s Friday!’ whilst another says ‘Yes, But we still need to get through Friday!’

You may have got to today and thought: My goodness, how did we get here so quick…I need at least another few days.

You may be thinking: I really need the weekend now, I’m not sure where I get the energy to do Friday first.
