My partner and I had always planned to get a dog, but as with many big decisions it never seemed like quite the right time. But a few years ago, the sudden and unexpected loss of a good friend reminded us life really could be too short and it was time to take the plunge. […]
Having been fortunate enough to have driven some of the greatest coast roads in the world, it was with some anticipation that I set out from Inverness in June 2021. Not that I was expecting the northernmost part of Scotland to be like the Great Ocean Road in Southern Australia, nor like Highway One on […]
One of the most exciting things when you are a child is to have the opportunity to go camping. Well, my sons have been asking me for ages to do it and finally my husband and I agreed to make it possible. Getting some fresh air while spending some quality time with the family sounded […]
Have you ever had a moment in life that was both embarrassing and unforgettable? Well, for me that moment was my first attempt at one of my current hobbies, tennis. Let me tell you up front, it wasn’t love at first sight. I was about 12 years old, on vacation with my family in the […]
Anyone willing to indulge me in talking about running often ask, “What does it take to complete a 100 mile race?”. My answer is A LOT of eating while running. Below is a tried and tested recipe from Feed Zone Portables: A Cookbook of On-The-Go Food for Athletes. Ingredients: 2 cups cooked brown rice 3 […]
After finally having the opportunity to visit at the beginning of last year, and having been twice more since, I’ve concluded that Dubai might just be the best city in the world. Whether you want to visit the tallest skyscrapers, smash the dunes of the desert in an ATV, or simply bask in the sun […]
I find myself standing in the queue ticket in hand not fully convinced that at my big age of 22 years old I should be watching the new Barbie movie… let alone in the cinema! That being said, it was completely packed out and everyone from little to large, young and old was there. And […]
Although the weather in London doesn’t feel much like summertime this year, it’s never a bad time to enjoy a fresh salad and try out a new homemade dressing to go with it! Ingredients (for the dressing) Method
I had always wanted to explore Germany, yet to have had the opportunity, so what better excuse than to go watch Arsenal play against German division 2 side Nuremberg in a preseason friendly. If you’ve ever thought about Nuremberg yet not been, I’d recommend a long weekend. Although the football was disappointing, the town was […]
Out of the house for multiple hours and a (questionably) acceptable reason to have a drink at any time of the day aren’t the only reasons to play golf, but they definitely help. Every weekend I head off full of hope that this will be the round where I break 80 as part of my […]
The month of July welcomes Wimbledon, the oldest tennis tournament in the world, to the capital. The crowds flock to SW19 in anticipation ready to watch the world’s greatest tennis players go head-to-head on grass, competing in what is widely regarded as the most prestigious competition of them all. Having previously partaken in the very British tradition […]
This blog is going back to a holiday just before the pandemic locked down the UK. I had a ‘trip of a lifetime’ booked in mid-Feb 2020 and whilst Covid news was mainly focused on China and the steady increase into Europe, it seemed a world away from affecting us (little did we know!). The […]
Time for a quiz: what do carrots, broccoli, garlic, raspberries and cauliflower all have in common. Wrong, they are not just mainstay within the diet of our vegan friend Michael, they are also the vegetables (and one pesky fruit) that have caused great existential angst. For those of you quite rightly questioning why I’ve been […]
