#Juneathon Day 4 – Zen Derby
I am so calm and relaxed as I write, after 20 minutes of Yoga containing lots of hip openers and back stretches. For me, this is how I prepare for Roller Derby, as I have 3 hours of scrim tonight. While everyone else is necking caffeine and listening to music to get them hyped, I

Dear Diary
My Marvellous May

Friday Frock Love: May Favourites
I can tell it’s nearly the end of May because there is rain beating on my windows. As ever I was lulled into a false sense of security by early sunshine, and then sorely let down as I convinced myself this was Summer. Still, my optimistic personality (stop laughing!) means that I am convinced more
