Having grown up in the medieval days of dialling up the internet, I find it hard to believe that in 2018 there's more technology in a smartphone than in the first spaceship sent to the moon. AND harder to believe that I've mostly used this technology to do Buzzfeed quizzes to find out what type… Continue reading Alexa, please get me a light switch

I Do … (want dessert)
I recently wrote about the reality of breaking-up - the chore of untagging yourself from endless holiday photos and figuring out who should get custody of the pug-patterned oven gloves (me) and the toaster (also me). But once the initial crappery of the situation has passed, the time comes to face the world again and… Continue reading I Do … (want dessert)
Oops I did it again
Every year, like most people, I have a birthday. And every year, grateful to have made it through to the 'next round', I face the same battle between 'call me Beyoncé' and 'well this is embarrassing, let's pretend I'm not here and go back to our normal lives' If this year is anything to go… Continue reading Oops I did it again

Pie-gate
I came home the other day to discover that my boyfriend had bought us a pie. In normal circumstances, I would SHOVE MY FACE STRAIGHT INTO THE PIE and go back for seconds, obviously. But this occasion was different... My boyfriend's choice - Steak and Stilton - was wasted on me. My Dad is allergic to… Continue reading Pie-gate
Netflix and a well deserved nap
I recently discovered that my boyfriend doesn't know the meaning of 'Netflix and Chill'. Apparently when you're a proper adult, the meaning of 'chill' goes no further than seeing how many Pringles and cookies it's acceptable to eat on a Sunday while watching endless episodes of Storage Wars - then having a well deserved nap.… Continue reading Netflix and a well deserved nap
