Well, work has been frantic this week, tempers are frayed, voices have been raised in anger and the cats had their own Formula 1 race up and down the stairs this morning at 4.30am... I know, because I've been awake since 2.00am!

So I'm looking for somewhere quiet to spend a few minutes, recharging my mental batteries and composing myself for a day of cleaning. The Tavern is very nice but it just doesn't have that internal quietness that can be found in certain places.

So, whether your chapel is a mediaeval stone building, a favourite chair in the library or the depths of a beech wood at sunrise, pull up a pew and sit for a while in contemplation, contentment and deep breathing exercises. Hildegarde of Bingen is playing on the computer here, the subtle scent of lemon green tea is on the air and the road outside is empty of all traffic - come and enjoy!

LTS - still not sure if I'm unwinding or unravelling, but the journey is good with company.
