If you remember, back at the start of June I entered an Instagram competition to win a holiday to Sorrento with Jet2. Insomnia the competition and I have just come back from my week away to the isle of Ischia. Don’t worry, I’d not heard of it either! It’s a small island of the coast […]
Where Have I Been in August?
At home. Is pretty much the short of it. Sorry guys, this isn’t a crazy list of places I’ve visited during August, but more about my disappearance from the blog. If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook you might have noticed that I got a little serious with my writing last month. This meant […]
Abby’s Promise Book Review
I was gifted Abby’s Promise as an ebook in order to review and take part in the blog tour that has been happening over the past week or so. The book focuses on a split narrative between Abby and her childhood crush/best friend Joseph Harrison. The book is set 8 years since the end of […]
Finding Places to Eat in London
Back in February I went to London with my sister to see Hamilton ( I swear I will get round to writing my review one day!) But we struggled to find any places to eat there. I mean there was the standard: McDonald’s; Burger King; Pizza Express. But we wanted to find somewhere better, somewhere […]
Mourning Dove | Book Review
Mourning Dove is the newest novel by Claire Fullerton. Set in 1970s Memphis it focuses on family, and how the 70s was not a time to openly talk about the negatives. I found it fascinating that it showed a type of live not often spoken about. The genteel society of the Southern states is not […]

Organic Shop Hair Care Review
A couple of months ago there was an opportunity on Facebook for some people to review a new hair care brand, the Organic Shop. As I’d been trying to find a new one I thought “what the heck” and signed myself up. A few days later my little box of goodies arrived. Apologies for the […]
My Life with PCOS
At the end of 2015 I was diagnosed with PCOS. PCOS is the acronym for the condition poly-cystic ovary syndrome. I had heard of this prior to my diagnosis but I didn’t really understand what it meant. Or what it might mean to “suffer” with this. Honestly, if my sister hadn’t pestered me to get […]
Viking Arty Party Sheffield Spring Event
I received an invite to the Viking Arty Party back in January, with a planned event date of March. But unfortunately the snow did not want that to happen! I’m not a big snow fan anyway, but to make an event rearrange is unforgivable in my eyes! Especially one I was really looking forward to […]
What’s Your Favourite Smoothie?
For the past 9 months or so I’ve been trying to make positive changes to my health and lifestyle. Enter the smoothie revelation. In April, I decided that I needed to get have more vitamins and need to look at getting more fruit and veg into my diet. This led me to rediscovering my love […]
