Yeah, I know; another song title and another blog quickly after the last one. But that's how I roll; music always is and always will be my first love. Gary Numan was one of them. 1979 Top of the Pops, with Tubeway Army, god, he was something otherworldly... Along with Adam Ant, before he was… Continue reading Are ‘Friends’ Electric
Before we even get into this blog, you need to know as soon as I think about the title, I am singing 'It's Tricky' by Run DMC. I need to get that out there - because it's sending me crackers! What we also need to get out there is 'it's tricky' is probably the biggest… Continue reading It’s Tricky
So before I get into the swing of this one, I want to clarify a few points. I am a 50 year old woman, I have been around a bit, and I have seen things. I am a feminist because I believe women should have the same rights as men. I am exhausted... So are… Continue reading Feminism v Misogyny
OK, I've been absent for over a hot minute, right? If I was to sit down and write about what had happened in the last two years, we'd be here for a very long time. No one needs that. Let's just say that life has been turned upside down on many fronts; I don't necessarily… Continue reading What the fudge?
I've not written in an age have I? I'll be honest, this whole in and out of lockdown had completely sapped my creativity in terms of what I could write about in this blog. I know I am not the only one, so I take some comfort from that, just! The last 5 months have… Continue reading Coaching, boundaries and general life

We're in really odd times. It's not just Covid though is it? It's all the other… Continue reading Are you unsettled too?
I recently finished watching Horizon, which as about Tony Slattery's quest to work out what was going on with his mental health. For the younger ones out there, Tony was a regular participant on the brilliant Who's line is it anyway? A comedy improvisation show which saw Clive Anderson as the host and a number… Continue reading What’s wrong with Tony Slattery (or any of us)
How are you all doing? I hope you're keeping safe. I don't even know how long we've been in lockdown anymore, I'll be honest... I think it's week 9 we're on, but does it even matter anymore? We need to keep ourselves safe - that's all! It's been an interesting couple of weeks. As you… Continue reading Lockdown, books and more books
The title of this post may sound somewhat misleading as I've managed to post three weeks on the trot, but I still feel like I am not the best at this whole blogging thing. I talked about this a little bit in September last year (here) about how I am a serial starter, but this… Continue reading I am a crap blogger and why it doesn’t matter
We've made it through another week. It's not been too bad to be fair, or at least not until today. I don't want to end the blog on a low, so let's start with the crappy bits of my week first... Allergies... Good god have they been bad the last couple of days! I have… Continue reading Boxes, Bottoms and Nasal Spray
