What a wonderful woman - my mother just celebrated her 90th birthday. Mum worked in the Civil Service until she got married at 26 - so a lunch in the Long Gallery restaurant at Stormont was fitting and fabulous

. Mum raised 7 children, worked on Dad’s business, volunteered for charity and church, sewed, baked, knit, an oil painter…I could go on about this formidable woman. I am so grateful to be her daughter 🥰

BREAKING: Three-and-a-half years, two extensions, seven defections, 21 deselections, three prime ministers, countless amendments, two prorogations, one Supreme Court judgement, 66 million losing the will to live and we’re still at square one.
Terrific day for a walk with the kids in the gorgeous Castlewellan Forest Park - my bro Michael sis-in-law Mairead, nephew Conor - oh 🐶 Molly and 🐶 Sasha loved it too

Sometimes little things can get us down but they can also lift us. A unexpected card from a friend, walking in the frosty air, a friendly retailer, smile from a passer by - let’s cling on to and appreciate the little things they matter
