You know what really annoys me? People’s opinions. Yes that may sound absolutely ridiculous and a little hypocritical as I’m offering up mine, but hear me out… When I was younger, I was a lot more confident and hotheaded. Then things happened and I lost a bit of confidence. I started caring about probably a bit too much what people... Read the rest of this post...

I can’t help it. I’m a considerate person okay! My absolute pet peeve is when someone dumps their stuff on an empty seat next to them on a full train or bus. I can’t begin to tell you how much this winds me up. (Image via) I once saw I man put his laptop bag on the seat next to him whilst... Read the rest of this post...

It’s quite possible I come from the proudest county in England, where you can go abroad and still find people chanting ‘YORKSHIRE’ if you identify that there’s more than 3 of you in the vicinity. I don’t know where this comes from, only that most of us our proud of where we are from (maybe because we know there’s some... Read the rest of this post...

My sister came across a recent article (and translated it into a language a non science-y person can understand). It talked about the potential for transfusions of young blood into older people to improve brain function. Potentially, these transfusions could be used to treat neurodegenerative diseases (such as Alzheimer’s). From a pharmaceutical and cosmetic perspective, it suggested it could (with...

I’m not sure whether everyone has enough solid self belief to chase their dreams. I know I certainly don’t. As a child, you get tonnes of praise for doing things the right way, often you would in school when you did something that impressed the teachers and then less frequently in college or university. To me, it seemed liked you had... Read the rest of this post...

I was recently I was offered a new job. In the seconds that followed the words, ‘We would love to have you join us’, I felt pure elation. Finally, after two years of ploughing away with job applications and working ridiculously underpaid jobs, someone was willing to give me a chance at something I genuinely wanted to do – hurrah!...

I have been eating rubbish food ever since I can remember. When I was younger, I would be made to sit at the table until I finished vegetables that would make me want to vom. Everyone said I would grow out of it. I didn’t so much grow out of the green vegetable hating. I just found more foods that... Read the rest of this post...

Some people are shits aren’t they? I would like to say that this isn’t now I truly feel. I’d like to give them the benefit of the doubt. I’d like to say maybe it’s that we’re too similar, or our personalities clash, or maybe they are having a bad day. But let’s face it, some people are deep down miserable,...

If I could give one bit of advice to anyone, it would be: go and talk to old people. Why? Because they will be able to offer you more. Grandparents are just brilliant. I could listen to my nan and grandad all day because they truly have the best conversations. I genuinely think more interesting and meaningful stuff comes out... Read the rest of this post...

So, I heard this yesterday… ‘I mean, I would have done when I was younger, but not now I’m nearly 25’. Hang on a sec…What was that I heard? You’re going to be 25 this year? You were in my year at school… How the hell has this happened? 25… It’s mature, it’s adult age, even old… And it doesn’t... Read the rest of this post...
