As I creep closer to that milestone birthday… (Shhhhh! Four – oh!) it would be silly not to reminisce, and sat at home with my parents… Well that’s a perfect place!
A 6 month old Ritu!!!
Ritu hitting her first year!
Sweet sixteen!!!
Forget Educating Rita, I give you… Graduating Ritu…

Oh and a bridal Ritu too… A BIG milestone!!
And just in case you forgot… That’s the Ritu of the present! 😜

Got get yourself the latest hot book to hit the summer reading craze!
Four years ago, Fifty Shades of Grey was the top Summer holiday read all over Europe, if not the world.
This year, what is it?
Well, I have walked around the pool at the family owned Hermes Hotel in Kos, and everybody seems to be reading Eleven Miles by Lance Greenfield.
Not only do I see the paperback version in many hands but, when I ask Kindle readers what they are so into, they all tell me, “It’s a book about a little Batswana girl called Boitumelo Hope Tumelo who walks eleven miles to school each day, and eleven miles home, just to get her education. It’s an amazing read from beginning to end. You’ve got to read Eleven Miles by Lance Greenfield!”
So, there it is, the top Summer vacation read of 2015 is officially….

It was so lovely, trying on clothes today , and showing my cuddly cute mum… Who said “They look lovely Ritu, now, if you just try and cut a couple of lbs…!”
I know she’s speaking from experience and I know she’s right too, but you know what, right now, I’m happy!
I know I have a slightly rounder tummy than this time last year, and I know I’m eating more rubbish, and I know I’m not exercising… But I’ll be honest, I haven’t had the time, and now, in my summer holidays, I really want to relax, not worry about weight loss!
Its true, I’m getting older, and it will be harder to shift those rogue lbs, but I will… I’ll try my hardest!
I did that.. A true achievement, last year. But it wasn’t a realistic weight for me to stick to…
OK, so I’ll curb the cravings for choccies and biscuits, crisps and ice cream… Maybe I might get exercising again too… But I’ll still be me, even if I don’t lose em again…
And I’m Happy!
