I opened my mailbox to a few treats this week! Sure, two of them I'd ordered myself but forgotten about... I mean, I actually forgot despite the fact I only ordered them a few days ago, and the other was a surprise snail mail postcard from the lovely Ines (who keeps one of my fave [...]

F.R.I.E.N.D.S – The set tour (A.k.a FriendsFest!)
I feel like there should be more set tours available in the world. Not only have I had the pleasure of visiting the Harry Potter set this year but I've now had the experience I didn't even know was possible; touring the sets of everyone's favourite sitcom; Friends! Yes, this is a thing! FriendsFest is [...]
Estuary Exploration // Anglesey
This weekend I went to Anglesey, Wales, for a hen party weekend. The hen is one of my oldest friends - we've been buddies for 20 years. Guys... I'm old enough to have friends for 20 years plus. What? Whilst I won't share pictures of the lovely ladies who I have known for a [...]

That pound-pound-pound of your heart which feels like it's telling you to be cuter, sexier, smarter, tougher. If you aren't competing with the other women in [...]
Sister, Sisters
Every girl needs a sister; whether it's a blood sister or a friend who is always there for you. I've been blessed by both of these types, though, I am terrible at keeping up with the latter. When you're brought up with sisters (and you're lucky enough to get on with them) you have this [...]
Being your own best friend
Unlike the classic Lit song 'My own worst enemy' I am, in fact, my own best friend. It's something I've only recently come to realise and appreciate in my late twenties and it's mostly because when I was younger I was one of those girls who didn't like to be... dare I say it... alone. Walking [...]
