This is my favourite stripy mug, made by Marit of All Gone Ceramics (once in Cambridge Market, now in Norway). It’s the perfect shape for cradling, sipping from and sitting pretty on my armchair. When I stopped planning all those things to do, I began to notice other things. Furniture gleaming in sunlight. Birds and sometimes bats and dragonflies zipping around gardens. Feathery reeds mirrored in quiet waters. Young deer bambi-ing through a secret meadow. Lockdown has changed things and me.
