  • Summary

  • This podcast is brought to you by your host, the incredibly honest, funny and inspiring Abigail Horne, owner of Authors and Co, best selling author of Your Story Starts Here, Podcaster, Wife and Mum to three young children - two boys and a wildling 3-year-old daughter Polly. Abigail hosts from her garden pub the Horne & Trumpet with a glass of red, a G&T or even a Peroni or two.   After her two best friends "buggered off" and moved overseas in the summer of 2018, Abigail was left with two empty seats at the conversational pub table. Now missing those all-important chats & debates you would usually share with friends over a glass or three of wine, Abigail has left those thoughts unspoken until now.   Once Upon A Wine will bring you topics usually spoken amongst friends, not often found online. It will be open, honest, frank; there might be differences of opinion, tears, laughter, and certainly a bit of bad language. Whether you agree or disagree - there is no judgement, just conversation and indeed no hate. Most importantly, Abigail isn't just going to talk about business; she talks about 'all of the things' about her personal life and everything that is topical right now. Thirsty Thursday's are being revamped! Go grab a drink of your choice and let's chat! If you want to be in the live audience and participate, drop me a message to join in the conversation.

    Coco & Alzheimer's
    Mar 17 2022

    The atmosphere in the Horne & Trumpet couldn't be any more glorious tonight. I have a mug of hot chocolate made lovingly by my eldest Ted, fairy lights twinkling with low and relaxed lighting and a Moments candle lit the room smells devine.  All the chill vibes are going on.

    Tonight I'm going to be talking about how as a family we are dealing with Alzheimers, it's a painful one with a happy twist, grab your tipple, snuggle down and come on a journey with me. I'll take you back to 2009, a very sad and significant time in my life. One which saw me losing my best friend, my Grandad Ted to Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. 

    An event which was to trigger the creation of Authors and Co, because the book we were meant to write together still has blank pages. 

    Just prior to lockdown in 2020 my nana P, Pauline, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. There was no way I was not going to fill the pages for a second time.

    We never finished your book Grand, and yet here you are in the pages of the book we've written with nan.  

    Its not been easy, I will cherish it forever! I'm in awe of my nan, my mum and myself for completing this book. 

    I love you all imeasurably and always xxx

    Alzehiemers now has nothing left to take - The Hand Family 1 - Alzheimers 0

    I raise my glass to you nanny P long may your shenanigans continue!

    My heart and thoughts are with the Ukraine, but it's not enough.

    We can always do more, speak up more, share more and impact more.

    Today I speak up for change, for becoming the 51%.

    This isn't an easy listen, nor was it it easy to record, but we cannot turn away.
