Friday Frock Love: Hit The Sales!

Have you done any sale shopping this year? I really can’t stand the crazy camping out from 1am on Boxing Day mind set, but I am a huge fan of a sale bargain. Personally I find a lot of my best bargains later in January anyway, once the hordes have died down it’s a lot

#Janathon Day 8 – I Tried But I Failed

Oh dear. Only 8 days in and I’ve (sort of) failed. By my own rules anyway. Tonight I was all geared up for my return to Roller Derby practice. I got kitted up, I went to practice, and then I stood in a corridor for 45 minutes outside a locked door which meant we couldn’t

This morning my Facebook feed was full of people feeling the pull of their duvets as they struggled into work.

Did you Win?

I think I’ve forgotten how not to write about Christmas. Today I really do have that back to school feeling. I like my job, so that’s a start at least, but all of sudden I have to remember how to write about interesting things that aren’t Christmas, and not many interesting things are planned for

#Janathon Day 4 – The Day I Dodged a Beer Shaped Bullet

Today I really should have been running with a horrendous hangover. Feeling a little cooped up after staying at home with a cold for what seems like years last night we decided to pop down the road and have dinner at Wetherspoons. I put proper clothes on and did my make up and everything, it
