Crossing town from Charing Cross to Kings Cross St Pancras sounds like an easy journey, but when you are in a rush lugging a huge suitcase and it's the school holidays, it seems like a right battle. But battle across town I did, to catch the (delayed and overcrowded) 8.30 train to Nottingham. Going to … Continue reading A Wedding Trip To Nottingham.
These last few weeks (pah - years) I have been suffering from a horrible problem. It's been on my brain constantly and with it being fairly quiet at work, it's all I've been thinking about. I have a case of chronic wanderlust. With this year's holiday coming up, I am starting to think about 2016 … Continue reading That Bug Called Wanderlust.
This last week I have been up in North Norfolk chilling at my parents house. The week has flown by, and tomorrow I head back down to London, and to real life. I spent my last full day with my Mum in the coastal town of Sheringham. This is not a new activity. I grew … Continue reading An April Day trip to Sheringham.

Our suite once again came with a full kitchen, of which we only used the kettle, a double and twin en suite rooms and a balcony.

I was extremely lucky (and thankful) that one of my work mates was heading in that direction for the … Continue reading Port Eynon and the Gower…

Lovely lovely Mo had offered room at her home so that us girls could get away for a break without having to fork out for accommodation.We met Nancy at the station and then road … Continue reading A Weekend in the Welsh Countryside….
So last Thursday I went to Dublin, for a well earned break. I went with a few fans of this man.... He was in a play called John Gabriel Borkman, also starring Fiona Shaw and Lindsey Duncan.

I went to Colorado to see the much missed Victoria (who is currently in London - YEY). I had an awesome time, but whilst I was there I.... ...may have accidentally bought an iPad. Which has provided hours of fun and games, but also has successfully managed to distract me from doing my Uni work. … Continue reading March and April….
I went to America.Every time I think this I smile, and add 'finally' onto the end of the sentence.It was so nice to see Victoria. It also genuinely felt like we last saw each other a few days ago, not four months ago. Her family were so nice, and I had such a good time. … Continue reading America, iPads and my return to Norfolk….
