A new website design?
I’ve recently been considering re-designing my website, it has been over five years since it last had an update, and I am very attached to the pink lady on my site. I do regularly clean up my sidebar and ads, but changing the design itself is more of a challenge and a worry. I use a custom wordpress design that I have always loved – it’s fresh, frothy and pretty and generally suits my blog and me. I’ve never really got around to buying a bespoke design for my site, although I can definitely see the benefits of changing to a cleaner, more sophisticated design (my good friend Emily Jayne…

If you asked 100 women what the most important item they carried around in their handbag every single day was, I’m guessing (at least) 99 would say their mobile phone.

Sometimes, we even use them to call people on. Our phones contain ticket information, our banking, our photographs and videos, they do the job that used to be done by cameras, diaries, trips to the bank and a whole lot more. Sites like the Mobile Network Guide have become invaluable for news…

Whether it be holiday documents, letters that need to be signed, important forms of any kind, or even something that your child needs for school – an assignment that has to be in the next day maybe, sometimes we need things to be printed out and handed in instantly, but with no ink, this just isn’t happening.

How we date now.
I’ve been married to my husband for 10 years now, and we have been together for almost 22 years, so it is sometimes surprising to me when I think about how people date in the 21st Century. I met my husband through my sister and we spent our first dates in pubs (I’m sure my son will one day ask me ‘what was a pub?’), my husband paid for all the drinks and made sure I got home OK, by dropping me at my front door. It was chivalrous and gentlemanly, a little old fashioned I guess, but still lovely. These days it all seems so different. I have attended…
