    My Mummy First Aid Kit*

    April 4, 2021 /

    As a parent my biggest fear in the world is something happening to my daughter. As soon as you become a mum, all previous fears like loosing your parents, becoming bankrupt or even dying yourself are put onto the back burner because your kid is the most important thing and it’s unimaginable to think of life without them. But lets face it, your kid is going to get sick or hurt and one time or another, and if they’re anything like my daughter at three, they’ll be completely fearless and think jumping between the sofa’s like the cat is a smart idea. Of course it’s not, and just this week…

    3 First Dates to Try Post Lock Down*

    April 4, 2021 /

    For the first time in a long time I’m starting to feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to some sort of normality after COVID 19. While I think it’ll be many years before the world resembles what it did before lock downs and closed borders and face coverings and vaccines, there is going to be something that will allow us to have the social interactions we so badly need. I have spent all three of the lock downs here in the UK on my own with my daughter, and I can tell you the loneliness is crippling. Not having other adults…

    March 31, 2021 /

    With the lockdown end in sight and the government giving us all hope for a relatively normal life from the end of June, it’s natural for single people to be thinking about getting back out there and meeting someone. Having been keeping our distance for over a year now, people have had the time to really think about what they’re looking for in a partner, but with bars/clubs still not open, holidays abroad not being an option and many of us still working from home, where can you meet someone? The places we’re so used to considering are currently unavailable. Well, that’s where online dating comes in! Online dating has…

    3 Ways to Make Virtual First Dates Fun*

    March 31, 2021 /

    While the last year has been rough in so many ways, there have been a few good bits and pieces come out of it. A lot of people have reassessed what’s important to them.. so people took up hobbies or found skills that they can no go forward and make a living from.. some people have had precious time with younger children before they started school and some people have found flexibility in working from home. But one of my favourite things that has come out of things is normalising the video call. For many years we’ve all made do with texting and it’s made us a little.. well disconnected?…

    What Are The Top Food Storage Brands For Preppers?*

    March 28, 2021 /

    Once upon a time, those that fanatically awaited the end of the world, also known colloquially as apocalypse preppers, were widely made fun of. They were the butt of many jokes, from “the end is nigh” gags on TV shows to the isolated survivalist in the woods stereotype. However, with every passing day, we are starting to realize that they might have had a point. It is no understatement that the past year has felt mainly like the supercut of newsreels played at the start of every post-apocalyptic movie. Starting from a deadly pandemic to riots, protests, and even unprecedented natural disasters that left our society in shambles and many…
