I didn't mean to buy any winter clothes as I'm only here till the middle of December before going back to Australia. However, I popped into a few Brighton high street shops to see if they had any interesting tops for the Vivienne Westwood skirt I bought for my birthday this time last year. I have only worn it a couple of times so really want to get maximum wear out of it this year.

For the 2nd year running, last week, I was invited to speak at The Age of Happiness, Well Over 50, Festival in Budva, Montenegro. It was so good to see so many Russian friends from last year's conference, as well as many new delegates, and to share my top tips on healthy 'old' age with nutrition.
