Photo by Sadık Kuzu on Unsplash I am beginning to realise that I have entered a stage in my life where half of my friends are settling down to have kids and the other half are out chasing their careers, travelling or still partying. Even though I am pretty much done with partying, it’s not quite the right time for […]

I think it’s fair to say that our best friends go drastically unappreciated the unfortunate majority of the time. Though we might shower them with gifts on birthdays and Christmases, there aren’t too many other times when we can sit back and truly appreciate how wonderful our friends really are. With International Day of Friendship […]
Like most people in the UK I love watching a bit of Wimbledon in the summer, accompanied by strawberries and cream of course. So, I was over the moon to see that Serena Williams was pregnant with her first child, yes! I was also ecstatic to discover that she was in fact pregnant when she […]
I always used to think that baby showers were the strangest events we take part in as women. Sometimes a dozen ladies, sitting in a circle and showering someone in the cutesiest gifts money can buy. Worst of all, we can’t even drink! I suppose that’s fair enough, your poor friend has gone nine months […]

Being the age that I am, a lot of my dear friends are expecting their first babies! I’m now well and truly a baby shower regular and I’d like to think I’m quite the expert. I felt it necessary to share my experience in the hope that you guys won’t make any slip ups when […]
Source: Jack Persson I’m very lucky to have a wonderful relationship with both my parents. They have supported me through tough times, helped me achieve the wedding I dreamed of, as well as the beautiful house that I live in with my husband. They’ve done so much for me that the prospect of ever being […]
At a recent lunch with the girls the subject came up of our collective fitness. I like to try and keep in shape as much as I can but we could all do with being a little fitter. After all I am a sucker for Hobnobs! Some of the girls talked about how motherhood […]
A friend of mine who has recently become a proud mum asked me on a coffee shop catch up last week what was the done thing when it comes to Father’s Day. Being new to motherhood, she’d obviously never bought a Father’s Day gift on behalf of somebody else before, and at 12 weeks old […]
