It’s funny, isn’t it, that as you grow older you start to adopt and pick up on different interests and hobbies. Watching and hearing all about the Chelsea Flower Show this week reminded me of my ever-growing love for gardening. Perhaps it’s finally having a garden that I can call my own, but it’s only...

It is my absolute favourite time of year. A time when it is still light when we look out of the window at 9pm and the sun is slowly starting to rise as early as 4am. I was lucky enough to discover this the other morning when our dog started barking at a pigeon in...

It’s not uncommon to hear people exclaim that they need another holiday, immediately after returning from a holiday. They can be stressful, jam-packed and itinerary-filled.

With the forecast set to sizzle over the Easter weekend, our thoughts turn to summer, sunshine and our seasonal wardrobes. I’ve been putting off having a bit of a declutter and rearrange in my wardrobe until the weather started to warm up and spring really felt as though it was on its way. Taking out...

As we grow up, we find ourselves with different interests and enjoying different hobbies. Perhaps it was colouring or puzzles when we were 5, making and crafting when we were 7, playing house when we turned 9 or playing sport as we left primary school and entered our teenage years. These likes and hobbies continue...

When we first join primary school, it is perhaps our first foray into true friendship. We meet so many different people, from different backgrounds. We don’t hold any grudges or reservations, but rather make friends with everyone. From primary school through to high school, we may hold onto these friendships. Or we may part ways...
