I wouldn't consider myself a Royalist but I don't mind the Royal family, some of them I like and I do like the 'new' Royal couple, William and Kate.

Hurrah to them for giving us yesterday's bank holiday and yes, I did watch a lot of the wedding!

Anyway, April has whizzed by and practically gone in the blink of an eye - it's not been a great month for me but I'm a survivor! There were even some good bits, ie me backing the horses that came first, second and third in the Grand National!

A break for me now in the far east with my family - as usually, it's come at the wrong time work-wise but will there ever be a right time?
