So ….

…here’s the thing.  I have some awesomely cool friends. I’m hanging out with some of the guys at Marciac Jazz Festival.  As a former organiser and programmer, I feel like I’ve died and gone to Heaven.  Really. Look at this venue. Look at the line-up, look at the list of sponsors.  It’s a dream come […]

False advertising

A piece of my heart just died. Attracted by the beautiful, peaceful face of Buddha resting on the reception desk, and the wonderful smell of essential oils wafting out of the open door, (and a desperate need for a professional massage to loosen up my traps), I popped in the new spa, between my place […]

I was getting married, (in itself, bizarre but stick with me people), it was on the down low and it was in my home town […]

All-consuming crush, on unrealistic target has distracted me long enough to interfere with my otherwise tidy and uncomplicated life (read; brain).  Having today realised I may have f*cked up some travel plans, I’m […]

Paris part II – July 2014

I’ve said it before, but I will say it again.  I’m a lucky woman. For a start, I’m writing this from the beach. Which is 15 minutes from my place. Enjoying the hazy sun and a balmy breeze. (It’s the little things.) But most importantly for me, I have infinite freedom.  I’ve learnt that the […]
