We’d visited two cities on our Scotland trip so far, so we designated Thursday as the walking day. Husband had apparently found a lovely walk for us to do, but he decided not to tell us anything about it – I suspect he thought I’d complain about the distance. The problem with this being that Tim … More Scotland trip – The Trossachs; walks and whisky
I have been to Glasgow twice before, but I don’t think I can claim those as ‘visits’. Once was in 2008 on a day trip to a head office of a furniture company I worked for, and once in 2006 where I forced a Tim to walk around an empty Glasgow Central Station with no shoes on. Long story. … More Scotland trip – Glasgow; hot dogs and Victorian tunnels
Having attempted to write up my Scotland trip for weeks now, it’s about time I just get on with it. I’ve had such bloggers block lately! I’ve already covered where Husband, Tim, and I stayed – the epic Pineapple in Dunmore – which was situated directly between Edinburgh and Glasgow. Perfect for visiting both the cities. First … More Scotland trip – Edinburgh; museums and lights
2016. What can I say about this disaster of a year that others haven’t already said. I think most people got to the end of December a bit shell shocked and worn out. I’m certainly one of them. My entire year was defined by my Dad’s illness and his sudden, unexpected death. It’s hard to explain … More A place of monstrous beauty and endless dark and glimmering light
I loved stickers when I was younger. I remember sticking a bunch on my bedroom furniture (which naturally irritated my mother) but I also used to get really precious about them. I’d get a bit sad at the thought of sticking them on a notebook or my wardrobe door and then not being able to stick them … More Sticker Swaps Subscription
And just like that, 25 drawers of fun beauty treats have all been opened. Once again, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the calendar, and whilst I’m sure I’ll deliberate about whether I buy again in 2017, I’m already looking forward what Liberty comes up with again next year. I’m a sucker for miniatures, what can I say. … More Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar 2016 – week 4
Week three of the Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar ends with a healthy dose of side-eye. Day fifteen – Trish McEvoy Lip Colour in Pink Nude. Nice enough, although I don’t wear lipstick so can’t give an in depth review. My mother will love it though I’m sure. It’s nice to get some of the Trish McEvoy make-up … More Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar 2016 – week 3
I was not a very worldly teenager. I hadn’t travelled, wasn’t too hot on pop culture or current events, tended to watch whatever my parents watched on TV. You could almost say a bit sheltered. So when I saw Adam Buxton dressed as a Klingon singing a terrible song about Star Trek: The Next Generation, … More Adam and Joe – Live at the BFI
Week 2 is a good mix of old classics and new discoveries. Day eight – Malin+Goetz Vitamin E moisturiser. Always a pleasure to receive this. Literally the only negative I can think of is it’s too hard to get out of the bottle. Everything else about it is amazing. WOO! Day nine – Davines Oi … More Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar 2016 – week 2
Yes friends, it’s that time of year where I irritate you all by splashing my Liberty beauty advent calendar all over my Instagram. I’m not really into the whole Christmas thing this year, so I debated about whether I’d invest in another calendar, but I’m glad I did. I’m choosing to consider it a countdown until … More Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar 2016 – week 1
