It's that strange time of year again when it's impossible to know what day of the week it is, that glorious holiday period when nearly everyone seems to get a break - twixtmas - the time between Christmas day and New Year.
It's the perfect time to chill out, catch up on reading, stay cosy and indulge in chocolates. And thanks to my family I have a new pile of books to work my way through.
But as the weather today was brighter and drier than yesterday we wrapped up and ventured outdoors for a walk, to work off some of the Christmas treats. Our walk took us to an area I'm familiar with, but a park I'd never been in until today - the Six Mile Water Park in Ballyclare. It was amazing to watch so many ducks and the herons. And my twixtmas reading continued as we walked through the park reading the centenary scripts.
I'm incredibly proud that amidst poem excerpts by John Hewitt and WB Yeats, my poem, 'Land of Linen' has also been included in the Centenary Scripts on display here. It's lovely to be able to combine some reading while enjoying being outdoors.
