When I was at uni my room was covered in photos. A montage of memories and a mash-up of friendship circles, nights out, gigs and camping trips. Just looking at that wall used to cheer me up as I faced a glum deadline or was missing friends who were on campuses at other ends of the country. It was only when I recently...

I will readily hold up my hand and admit to stuffing headphones on and traipsing the walk to work oblivious of the world around me. Dodging traffic and careening cyclists, work men, mums with pushchairs and dogs sniffing at lampposts. I just hit the play button and get in my groove and off I go.  Which is all well and good when you...

I've just started reading the Pulitzer Prize winner, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr for the book club at work, I'll report back soon. Cover design has got me giddy though, so pretty!  ...

I have been dawdling. Two hundred and seven pages have taken me two months to read. I’ve even written that down in letters rather than numbers so I can take my time. The Opposite of Loneliness by Marina Keegan has stopped me in my tracks. Marina Keegan was an American author, playwright, and journalist. She is best known for her essay "The Opposite...

A four legged, one kilo bundle of black tabby fur recently joined our clan. Her name is Jemima and she is now a permanent feature on my Instagram feed. I'm addicted to taking pictures of her. Warning: if we meet up, don't ask me how I am. It will result in me diving into my handbag to triumphantly pull out my phone and...
