Love? Life? Joy!
Yesterday evening I was sat in my car, I won’t tell you the context of the situation, but I will tell you I was distressed. In fact the whole drive home was accompanied with a long and emotional monologue. ‘I’m trapped.’ I repeated to myself ‘I’m trapped and I don’t know what to do. I just don’t.’ We’ve all had...

“So Beth, what do you think about immigration?” Now before I tell you my answer I’ll tell you of the circumstances. I was working in a pub in London.
