With all the change going on in my life right now, I just haven’t had the will to sit down and a have a good write – but a week into my new home, new job, and new friends, I’m finally starting to create the resemblance of a routine! So hello again blog-sphere, this post …
I do not remember the last time I wrote something up by hand, but in true traveller fashion – that is how this blog made its way into the world. As I speak I am sat on the Sheffield to York train, looking out at the lingering snow and listening to what must be the most adorable pantomime …
Considering we’ve International Beer Day, International Bacon Day, Talk-Like-A-Pirate Day, National Corndog Day, World UFO Day.. I mean, well the list goes on (here, if you’re that way inclined), one could say it’s about time we’ve an International Day of Happiness!

Picture green, white & gold littering the ceiling, and laughter echoing through the air. Irish or not, St Patrick’s Day just has that feel about it: Today is going to be a good day.

Isn’t that what they say? Isn’t that what we’re told over and over… It’ll all work out in the end, and whatever shit of the week is hitting the fan will eventually pass. Grown up decisions to be made, and every aspect of your life to be changed – but trust me, it’s going to … Continue reading »

Well oh-my-days, haven’t I just neglected you somewhat little blog? Apologies personal cyber space (All 2 of you and our cat). What I started doing – and what I will finish doing (promise) – was writing up my New Year’s Resolutions. Well, yes I know it’s March, and April is fast approaching, but better than … Continue reading »
Getting older I have noticed that I appear to be turning into my parents. Well not necessarily my parents. But a version close to.
