So, the other day I was in a bar ordering some cocktails and a guy came up to me and asked ‘got enough dough?’
I looked at him in confusion for several moments, before leaning forward and saying ‘don’t you worry about me. I’m fine.’

Daddy Vigus is vastly known on this blog for his ambling bear-like fridge foraging, but those who know the man know he’s so SO much more. My dad is the kind of father who fills you with reassurance when you tell him you’re concerned you might have contracted ebola on holiday. The kind of dad who guarantees that if I get abducted by sex traffickers,... Read the rest of this post...

Sometimes, just sometimes, you think you might be ready for something. And sometimes, when my friends are having babies and getting pets and doing all of that grown up stuff, I think I might be just about ready for that next step in life too. We’ve been talking about getting a puppy for some time. A lovely little bundle of... Read the rest of this post...

It’s been a long day. You’ve had a stressful day at work. Your gym was so packed with people doing post-work workouts that it frustrated you more than it relaxed you. Once you’d changed and got out of there, you were so hungry it felt like your stomach was eating itself. You got lost on the ride between the gym... Read the rest of this post...

Yesterday, as I was sat against our living room radiator, cradling a cup of tea to warm my frozen fingers, whilst simultaneously attempting to stop the puppy from destroying everything in sight, the boyfriend popped his head around the door to say goodbye, with an added, ‘You haven’t got anything for Valentine’s Day, have you?’ And I hadn’t. And I... Read the rest of this post...

I love you. Three magic words. A million possibilities. The stuff that Hollywood rom-coms and Whitney Houston songs are made of. A few weeks back I found myself sat in cafe one rainy Tuesday evening in the heart of London’s Soho. One of my girlfriends had called me in tears – it was a CODE RED. As we clutched our...

‘Crush’ Verb: ‘Deform, pulverize, or force inwards by compressing forcefully’. Noun: ‘A brief but intense infatuation for someone, especially someone unattainable’. Ah the ‘Crush’. A word and a concept that seems so dated and juvenile to us now. Something to be chronicled into the archives of our youths, along with various other subheadings: Braces, Bacne, Not Quite Real Bras, Toothy... Read the rest of this post...

The other month an old colleague messaged me on a social networking site asking about working together. I replied promptly, enthused and excited about this potential new collaboration. And guess what? She never wrote back. Wait a tick, did I miss something here? You contacted me, lady?! And yet 2 months later – I’M STILL WAITING. (Image via) What happened? Did...

I have always enjoyed my own space. Despite my yearnings for siblings as a child, I relished the almost total control of my time. I was lucky enough to have parents that didn’t push me into anything I didn’t want to do and this resulted in me doing very little, but having an absolutely blissful childhood to myself.

Treasures, we’ve reached the end of the wedding season, and something’s just not marrying up in my mind (marrying? Geddit? I slay me). This summer, I couldn’t check my Facebook newsfeed at the weekend without a friend’s wedding pictures appearing. As I admired the dresses, the happy couple and the ‘doesn’t she look beautiful!’ statuses, my eyes always wandered over... Read the rest of this post...
