When things all get too much
I haven’t written a blog post in over 10 days, and do you know what…. thats okay with me. It’s about time that someone reminded me that we don’t have to blog every-second-of-every-day and that it’s alright to have a break without feeling an enormous amount of guilt. It seems in the blogging world there is an

It’s been a busy old month for this mucky little pup. Not only has he had some awesome long walks in the countryside, he has also been spoilt rotten with stacks of food, treats and toys… and we bought his first ever coat. He is one spoilt little piglet, but I wouldn’t have him any

How I finally sorted my finances, once and for all
Now I’m in my 30’s and own my own home, I have finally learned to be careful with my money. Yes ok, I admit it took a little while to figure out but I think I’m there. No longer can I justify spending all of my hard-earned cash on new clothes, make-up and nights out. Woe.

Christmas Party Planning
It’s that time of year when we all starting thinking (or panicking) about the office Christmas party. It’s an odd one, on one hand you want to dress up, have a really nice time, but unless you get on really well with your colleagues on a personal level, there is always an underlaying feeling of

A magical night at Enchanted Park Lewes
Last night we decided to get ourselves in the festive spirit and took a magical adventure through the Enchanted Park, Lewes. Set up in Southover Grange Gardens, the Enchanted Park features ‘spellbinding art, projections and digital media‘ and takes you on a majestic after-dark journey through the park. The experience is quite surreal, with the

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while now, you will know that our dog Robbie is one of my very best friends. He is the first dog I’ve ever owned and since our first day together we’ve been inseparable. I can’t describe the amount happiness he brings into our home. He is so hilariously

Remembrance Day – Are you wearing your poppy?
This week the BBC news article 5 reasons people don’t wear a poppy caught my eye and has got me thinking. For me, I’ve grown up with the poppy being an important symbol; it takes me all the way back to when I was a brownie guide, standing proud and leading the Remembrance Sunday parade through the

LIFE: Hen Do Shenanigans
It seems like only the other day, but way back in the summer I attended the hen party of one of my very best friends – Andrea. It was such a lovely weekend! This was my first ‘away from home’ hen party so I really didn’t know what to expect – planning a hen party
