Not everything in life is rosy, sometimes a run of unfortunate things happens quite out of the blue. This was the case for me last week.

Better things are just around the corner

I had been up to Flockton WI to deliver a talk and cook recipes from my book Meals on the Move: A Campsite Cooking Journey. It had been a great evening, and I returned home feeling wonderful.

I went up to bed and fell to sleep quickly only to be woken at 2am by a call from the police.

This is always bad news we know this but fortunately, and you must find a positive, they were not calling about a human casualty, they were calling to say that our caravan had been stolen and was in a police chase up in North Yorkshire!
