In all the chaos of the last few months, I feel like my blog has really suffered from a bad case of neglect, and I’ve suffered from a bad case of no down time. You can probably imagine then, that I was pleasantly surprised when an email landed in my inbox inviting me to bonprix‘s…
Life Update
Hello! *sweeps dust off of the blog* It’s erm… it’s been a while, hasn’t it? I can’t believe it’s November, and the last time I wrote was JUNE. I mean, almost July but still. Summer tends to be hectic enough as it is, what with conference season, travelling around, birthdays, weddings, all that jazz… Summer 2016…
Rush Hair York Review
Alright, confession time… I think the last time I had my hair cut was in December last year. Yeah. The death throes of the PhD write up will do that to you. I even went through a brief phase where I convinced myself that I was “growing my black out” so I could bleach and do the…
Cabana Brasil Leeds – #RoadToRio Event
A couple of weeks ago I was invited along to the #RoadToRio event at Cabana Brasil in Leeds, to get a taste of their latest lunch menu offerings. Although I had never been to Cabana before, I’d seen some really good things online and was excited to give them a try – as was Dan, my…

Exchange Restaurant Review – The Great Victoria Hotel Bradford
A few weeks ago I was invited for dinner at the Exchange Restaurant at the Great Victoria Hotel in Bradford. Living in Horsforth, it’s only a 20 minute drive away from our house so my plus one for the evening was of course my lovely Dan. Sitting opposite the train station, the Great Victoria is…
Murder Mystery Dinner Party (Murder On The Posh Floor!)
If you follow me on Twitter, you might have seen a flurry of tweets a couple of weeks back hashtagged #MurderOnThePoshFloor… no real murder of course, just an incredibly fun afternoon with a fabulous bunch of Yorkshire bloggers. Posh Flooring and Search Laboratory invited me to the Leeds Hilton City for a three course meal and a murder…
Goodbye 2015, Hello 2016…
I’m pretty late posting my annual goodbye x hello y post and I’m not going to apologise, I haven’t felt much like writing. I think I’ve been avoiding this one because this last week has been horrendous, and in writing this I feel like I’m making things more real, you know? I’ve beasted through a…
Blogger Secret Santa With George At Asda
Okay – with November mostly gone and December looming I’m willing to accept that it’s beginning to look a hell of a lot like Christmas. I know some people get really stressed out by the concept of doing secret Santa, but I actually enjoy it – is that weird? I was absolutely thrilled to be asked…
