I have an excuse for not updating! Yeah, I’m ill again. I’ve been coughing, not unlike a car backfiring, for the past few weeks. If the amount of snot I am currently blowing out of my nose onto a tissue can be described as having a good time, then this illness has been fun. Not [...]

How did I celebrate St Patrick’s Day? I worked and had a driving lesson. That counts, right? I have not been in my new job long enough to describe a typical Monday, or even a typical day just yet, but I am getting there. In truth, having days of the week where I know what [...]

It’s always nice when plans. no matter how vague, come together. However, it would have been nice to interview my MP on my hospital radio show, without covering myself in mud 5 minutes beforehand. I had actually gone out of my way to dress like a professional (skirt and all), and just as I went [...]

You might have noticed a slight change to the site. I decided, after a few thoughts and mild annoyance over the way that the site could cut off the end of blog entries that I could do with trying a slightly new layout. I hope it’s appreciated. Certainly, the blog looks less busy now. It’s [...]

I would by lying if I said that this week had been easy for me. Firstly, I have now properly left my Christmas job. Once again, they could not take on after Christmas, but I know they will be in touch if anything changes. It was only weird in that my leaving felt like the [...]

Ever since signing myself off the dole last month, I’ve become scared of doing nothing. Admittedly, for the last three weeks I haven’t really had the chance to do nothing, but now I am back and sort of settled back into a routine (a routine that means that, for some reason, I have discovered the [...]

I am watching Outnumbered on the television as I type this, and my main thought is ‘Bloody Hell, if I could write like this all of the time, I would die happy’. I used to go to a writing guild at Uni, and I am surprised that I was allowed to attend for three years [...]
