Episode 34 - Pete makes Bolognese and mum talks about 1956

Welcome, my name is Pene and I live in the S.E. of England with my husband Pete and four chickens. After my retirement, working for the NHS as a counsellor, I decided to do Penelope’s Chinwag. It’s a chatty vlog about crafting, a fascinating fact about the natural world, maybe a chat with Mum or Pete and a story or poem. In episode 12 I introduced Transactional Analysis, a model of counselling that is very practical and helpful. I finish with a short film usually taken when I’m out walking round our 'block'
