146. The Parent Test

It’s funny that no matter how grown up I feel, no matter how many meetings I attend or washing powders I buy, my parents are still the most important people, the first people I turn to. Even now...

143. Fear factor

For a year I had so many hopes but no real expectations for, 2013 has been a storm full blown tornado in a teacup. All 22 days of it. Just before Christmas I was OK I was fairly comfortable, I was...

141. Happy New Year

With the last few days of the year coming to a close I'll let you in on a secret -- I loathe December 31st, I refuse to celebrate, I can't remember a New Years where I haven't cried or wanted to be...

After some of the most stressful and tiring weeks in a while I think I well and truly nailed the weekend with some solid hibernation and a box set of Die Hard 1-3 to keep me going. It slipped by. I...

133. The one with the burrito

Some of you might have seen a London blog where dates are traded for burrito meals. 52 dates are planned, 104 burritos are consumed, each date gets a write up. That’s a lot of pressure, and a lot...

128. I'm ok

I'm a worrier, a natural born muller, if stressing myself was an art I'd be hung in galleries charging £12 a view. It would be a sell out. It's not fun, it's certainly not attractive and after...
