Revelations and resets for royals

I ALWAYS think of September as a month of new beginnings. It marks the end of the summer holidays and a time to return to our normal routines. While I’m not lucky enough to get the whole of the summer off work, I did enjoy some time in the South of France and returning to the commentary box for the Aviva National Bowls Finals in Leamington Spa.

Back in the office, with the royals enjoying some respite in Balmoral, I’ve been freed up to knuckle down on the tasks I’ve been putting off during the busy season.

I’m sure I am not the only one who gets the back-to-school feeling at this time of year, and with the royals returning to a busy diary of engagements they are bound to have hit the reset button as we head into a new season of events.
