It has been on my bucket list to take my nine-year-old daughter to watch Matilda the Musical at the Cambridge Theatre in London for a considerable amount of time. Somehow, for all the complicated reasons you sometimes have as a parent, the opportunity hadn’t arisen. So, when I was recently offered a pair of tickets to see the critically acclaimed …

View PostPathological Demand Avoidance Awareness Day 2018 – Our Journey to diagnosis
Tuesday, 20 December 2016 Today I hit the wall. The wall won and I had a full-scale meltdown. One to rival the intensity of the meltdowns my daughter rewards us with on a (far too) regular basis. Later in the afternoon, I sat down to plan a Christmas cookie baking session with my two offspring to realise that, quite frankly, …
Don’t Put All Your Eggs In One Basket – The Instagram Shadow Ban
Have you ever heard of the Instagram shadow ban or fallen victim to this ghost ban? Which Instagram denies the existence of, claiming that some people may be experiencing a “hashtag glitch”?

Good Things Come To Those Who Click
Over the weekend, whilst my friend was over for our weight training session, she mentioned that she had bought a few dresses from Shein. She will be going to South Africa at the end of March, hence the eager weight training sessions when it’s so cold I just want to stuff my face with biscuits and burgers. So completely justifiably, …
Floral Dresses for a Spring Transition
I had a date last night with some Instagram friends, most of whom I had only chatted to via messages online. I was as excited as a two-year-old who had broken into the sweetie jar and eaten a week’s supply of chocolate. With a headache to match. The temperatures had just turned Baltic, and suddenly my tulle and lace skirt …
