Hello, howdy, and g'day. It's January!

…And we know what that means — 'Becks and the City' is back in action.

Oh, what fun we’ve had! Or rather, a healthy and satisfying smattering of activities over the holiday break.

Adam was off for a whole month from mid-December, which meant we had time to indulge in leisure activities, make various improvements around the house (new couch! tidied spare room and media room! wardrobe refresh!), and simply relax. It was bliss.

We went to the Adelaide International tennis on Pride Day (I uploaded a few photos to Insta, if you’re curious), saw Next Goal Wins (an uplifting, uncomplicated sporty offering from the hilarious Taika Waititi) at Moonlight Cinema, and had brunch looking out over the ocean. I also went to a hen’s day with a shark-tank-themed escape room and high tea (pics also on Insta), which was loads of laughs, although my brain wasn’t terribly switched on for the escape room portion of the day. Sorry to my team, haha. Jaws got us. Oops.

I also caught up on a bunch of writing tasks that’d been hanging over my head since forever, including updating my website. Miraculously, I didn’t even break it in the process. Now, I’m making plans for this newsletter for the year ahead. Have thoughts on that? Feel free to weigh in by shooting me the comments section. I won’t bite, unlike that shark.

Anyway, you ready for what’s coming next? Let’s do 2024 in style.
