The new single use plastic ban comes into force today in England – but what about vapes? Plastic cutlery and plates are no longer allowed to be served, which is a good thing, despite it seemingly being quite a shock […]
So my last significant birthday post to my baby brother was 10 years ago when he was 40. I was complaining about feeling old and found the ideal solution was to sit next to my mother instead of him.

A very happy 23rd birthday to my youngest and tallest child. He’s come a long way since the early days of my blog. This is a late entry as his birthday was actually back in July, but I’ve been too […]

“School Girls; Or, the African Mean Girls” play is currently showing at The Lyric in Hammersmith until the 15th July. At a mere 80 minutes of wonder, it certainly packs a punch and I would urge you to go and […]
Getting excited about Glastonbury next week and so I’ve recreated my list for Glastonbury when you’re old. I’m not feeling so bad now that I’ve heard the average age is 55 (is it really though?). The walking you do […]
Happy World Blood Donor Day (WBDD) to one and all – that is to those who have given blood before and to those who have been thinking about it for ages and are about to…any minute. The 14th June commemorates […]
