Hello @helenashivji

Hi Hannah! Not much yet but I’m going to see my neurologist at an appointment in March so not too much time to wait 😊 I went to Marrakesh last year which was lovely.Ohhh sounds like fun! Have you got any books you would recommend?

Hope the appointment goes well!
Marrakesh sounds lovely, were you there for holiday or visit some friends / family?
We have a thread called The Book Nook with lots of recommendations

Heya @helenashivji and welcome from me too!
I enjoy; Painting tiny miniatures (Warhammer 40k), gaming (PC/PS5) and anything to do with animals.
My sister went to Marrakesh a few years back and loved it. I bet you enjoyed the food?
