Did you know that Gloucester Cathedral is over 1,000 years old? It's the most stunning venue and it's of no surprise that they filmed some of Harry Potter here. I've been so looking forward to Christmas but it seems to have all of a sudden crept up on us and I am not prepared! With… Continue reading Meningitis Now Christmas Concert at Gloucester Cathedral

The Perfect Start to Winter
I'm sure you may be sick of seeing and hearing about the snow, but I cannot get enough of it! Funnily enough, I'm actually writing this post as I sit on train and try to thaw my frozen toes as the water has got through my very impractical boots. However, I still love it. There's… Continue reading The Perfect Start to Winter
NOW it’s Christmas
Don't take this to mean that I have any issues with anyone who puts their decorations up early, but for me, I love to wait until the 1st December before doing anything Christmas-related. I think it adds to the excitement knowing that I can't watch a Christmas film or get the decorations out until this… Continue reading NOW it’s Christmas

What I’m looking forward to coming into the festive season
A little something about me; I absolutely adore the festive season, it really is the most wonderful time of the year.

My bargain upcycled table

Not only did I get the table for free, but I’ve got it (in my humble opinion) looking pretty awesome and didn’t cost the earth. A bit of the back story as to why I’m so obsessed with this table… Continue reading My bargain upcycled table
When you feel like you’re not making much progress
I wrote this title thinking about the house renovation but actually, it relates to others things going on in my life and my current mood of late. Firstly, the house. Now that we live there, we are constantly working on it but lately I’ve been looking around thinking ‘come on, when will one room at… Continue reading When you feel like you’re not making much progress
5 things I’m up to this weekend
Happy Friday everyone! For some reason I'm extremely excited about this weekend, which has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that our wood burner has been installed and the fridge is full of my favourite wines and beers. Can I just say it is full, but I'm not the only one that will be… Continue reading 5 things I’m up to this weekend
We’re in!
It's been a whole week since we moved in our house, now our home. Our first home together and man alive, it feels good. Now I don't want to brag but we have heating (bar one radiator yet to be fitted in the kitchen), a bath, plaster in the kitchen (we have a ceiling!) andddddddd… Continue reading We’re in!
