I wasn’t planning on writing a post about Coronavirus, but it increasingly feels like the elephant in the room which there is no avoiding, so as a working Mum, I’m sharing my current fears and thoughts about what is unfolding on a global scale with each passing day.

The inspiration for this post came in the shape of the week it took me to get over Harry Styles performance at The Brit awards 2020.

Raising a family at a time when information is right at your fingertips has it’s advantages.

If you are based in Kent and you haven’t seen a moon selfie on your social media feed over the last week, then you must be living on… the moon?

We LOVE to a stay in a good hotel. However, we are not always entirely sure of how to make the most out of it. The thing is that when it comes to staying at a hotel you can leave your cares (and laundry bin) at home and embrace the life of luxury for a night or two…
