Life is full of challenges isn’t it? While it’s a well known saying: life is a race. John Maxwell argues that life is in act life series of races. Every day we are met with obstacles, challenges, annoying people, ass-cracks… ‘Wait! Hold up sister!’ I here you say… Don’t worry this is not that kind of blog. Let me explain....

So I previously wrote a blog about Prowlers (click here to read part one). Just to recap, I defined a ‘Prowler’ as a person who has their sights set on your partner. This week I am going to talk about what to do if YOU are MISTAKEN for a Prowler. Now nobody likes being disliked. I certainly don’t. In fact,... Read the rest of this post...

Lurking in your partners workplace. Looming at the office party. Hanging around his favourite coffee stand. Emailing him on the weekend….‘Prowler’ is the name I have lovingly denoted to the people whom, intuition tells you, has their eye on your man (or woman). So it all began when I was having coffee with one of my friends back home. We began... Read the rest of this post...

Hey Peeps! For those of you who know me, you will have probably heard about my dog Bear. For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure of meeting the fella – he’s big, drools a lot, is crazy boisterous and a MASSIVE pain in the arse. This is a short film I have put together about him. Hope you... Read the rest of this post...

I am the first to admit that I have this very romanticized image of London-living in my mind. Ooo I’m like London’s Carry Bradshaw. Laaaa I am sooo cosmo with my soya latte and take away cup right now. Ahhh chante… what an elegant arrangement of flowers in front of this tudor looking building – INSTAGRAM!!! I am turning into...

Scenario: you’re boyfriend has just broken up with you (or maybe you are the one that did the breaking up). You are in a state of shock. You can’t think straight. It’s actually over.

‘What do you think it is?’ Alex* whinnied as I leant forward, peering over, eyes squinting. ‘Did you notice it when I came in?’ she asked. ‘Nooooo,’ I said, but the shrill pitch of my voice was a clear indication that I was blatantly lying. I mean her forehead was pretty bulbous and had gone a rather disconcerting rouge. ‘Ouch!’ she... Read the rest of this post...

So the other day – DON’T ASK me why but I was looking at LOADED’s online website (YES I do feel it necessary to type LOADED entirely in upper case – it’s a word that feels like it should be yelled or something – LOADED!!!).

This week I am going to be sharing my observations and views on COMMUTERS. They are one of the most fascinating sub-groups of human-beings I have ever encountered in my life. Ruthless, determined, brutal and relentless. At first I was rather excited about joining the working world, getting my morning coffee on the way to the station, trundling along with...

So there I was just casually minding my own business, watching some telly on a Saturday night when suddenly I heard a booming voice… ‘You got to be shitting me,’ my dad exclaimed as he clocked that Take Me Out was on.
