Sometimes I have eureka moments sat in bed. (That is not code for anything sexual) Sometimes I wish these ideas remained in my head. (Hey, that rhymed) “I wonder what it would be like to join Tinder as a girl and see their perspective”. After all I had heard some horrifying camp stories about dating [...]
I am taking a break from writing about 2020 for a few days because somehow talking about my divorce and mental health is less depressing than that cod bollocks (that’s the saying, right?) of a year. So what shall we talk about? Lets spin the wheel and find out. [If you could briefly imagine a […]
“This was a dumb idea”, I think, as what feels like the hundredth conversation with a man turns into a debate about where his dick could and should be shoved. A pencil sharpener?

Recently though, has been a really special day. #InternationalDogDay! Yay! A day when #mansbestfriend is given all the love, cuddles, fuss and FOOD (especially food!) that a dog could possibly […]
