Palace of Versailles

As mentioned in my previous post we went to Paris in December and made plans to visit the palace of Versailles. We knew it would be a busy day but my goodness it’s such a large area to cover!! We bought tickets in advance that say we need to arrive after a certain time, however…

Paris

When the office closed last year we all wanted to plan something as a final goodbye to S&G. We decided as a group we would go to Paris for a long weekend away. It took a lot of planning, there was a lot of tantrums and arguments about which hotel we want to go to…

Time to be honest

Over the last few months I’ve been trying to decide whether it’s worth posting anything about this, but I believe honesty is the best policy. Lockdown has given me chance to think, to learn and to remember both the good and the bad times. I’ve been struggling to put into words how difficult I’ve found…

Working from home

At the moment the entire world has been turned upside down, a pandemic changing our every day lives even the little things you take for granted have changed. I’m currently at the other side of the country from all my family and friends, I’m still working full time and haven’t stopped through. I know firsthand…

The office closure and a new start..

It’s funny how much can change in such a short space of time. I know in a previous post I have mentioned the staff complaining about how things are run but they wouldn’t speak with seniors – well funny as just a few weeks later we were told the office was closing. So it’s a…

Just a little catch up..

So, a lot has happened since I last posted – my apologies I’ve been extremely busy and preoccupied, middle of pandemic and all that.. This post is basically to go over what’s changed and then I (hopefully) will post in more detail! In October 2019 my company decided that Watford was a little too expensive…

When life gives you lemons..

A few weeks ago I published a post about my costochondritis, a pain I have never experienced before in my life. It affected everything and I was on the verge of returning back to Yorkshire where I would be back to normality; I was struggling with work because the pain was unbearable. Spending 7 and…

My favourite Birthday Gift.

So for a very long time I have wanted a tiara ring from Pandora, and after what seems like years I finally got one for my birthday and I am in loveeee. There’s a couple of Pandora tiara rings and this one is my favourite, and I will wear it every day. As soon as…

24th Birthday gifts from my work family..

I have been in my job for 6 months now, SIX WHOLE MONTHS, and some days go by and I feel like I am still the new starter who doesn’t know what is going on. I go home for my lunch so that limits interaction with my colleagues outside of work time, so when it…

Dumbo 2019

*MOVIE REVIEW – SPOILERS* I really disliked the original Dumbo, there is no point me even trying to deny it. But the trailer for the 2019 movie looked incredible, and with it being a Tim Burton movie I expected it to be good. The film was fantastic, it was funny and dumbo is my new…

US..

*MOVIE REVIEW – SPOILERS* I was unsure about this movie, I liked ‘Get Out’ and because of that I thought I would give this movie a chance. I don’t know what expected from the movie, I didn’t really know what the movie was going too be about. In all honesty, the first ten-fifteen minutes of…

Mary Poppins Returns

*MOVIE REVIEW – SPOILERS* “A cover is not the book, so open it up and take a look” I absolutely adore Disney, and when I heard they were making Mary Poppins returns I told Tom it was something we NEEDED to see. To be quite honest the original Mary Poppins isn’t one of my favourites…
