I moved house this week. Woohoo! It feels great (when I forget about the boxes remaining in each room) and it brings back memories of my previous houses. Memories of a non-billionaire woman. My first house was made out of cushions, sofa cushions trying to stand and stay together, best thing to annoy Mums. Cushions … Continue reading My favourite house
Third child
I love my two girls, but I love myself too, and now that they are both at school, my brain is asking me for a third child. Not a baby (I have to clarify before my friend Antonio makes a comment here about me overpopulating the planet). THIRD CHILD is my way to find a … Continue reading Third child

We may be losing track of time in quarantine, thinking every day is Groundhog Day, but last Friday was different. It was a beautiful sunny day and the start of a bank holiday weekend. 23 degrees was on the horizon - happy mood, sunny garden, people looking for bbq food (toilet paper is not a … Continue reading What day is it?
#tbt to the best Thursday
Last Thursday I finished a program called CREATIVE COMEBACK 2020. An initiative to get more people back into the creative industry.

Hello 1979
Uh oh...what is this? A woman revealing her age? Yes, proudly. This is a tribute to my 30s. Thirties you were amazing, even though you started like a Netflix horror series trailer. Are you ready for the plot? A week before my 30th birthday, I was made redundant. Not a good start right? I was … Continue reading Hello 1979
