Loved Ice skating at the Isle of Wight rink before it closed down over a year ago

Loved Ice skating at the Isle of Wight rink before it closed down over a year ago. This is one of my efforts from then and before my weightloss journey too.
Lots of open air Christmas rinks open now.
Will post my recent effort at the Natiral History Museum later today.
Its great exercise for core stability and glutes. 
Also a sense of achievement the longer one stays upright!

Love this healthy no sugar added Sangria recipe with Rose wine

Love this healthy no sugar added Sangria recipe with Rose wine.

Using a qood quality rose wine, add sliced  peaches, nectarines and basil.
I think you could also add some fizzy mineral water too if you wished.
What a great alternative version to the traditional Sangria for a Summer evening drink.
