About me

My main job is being a mum, it’s the most varied and demanding job I’ve had in my life. My day job is at a university. Away from work when I get time to myself I love to write, I’m a blogger and a published author. If I get any time after that I can be found either at the gym boxing or sat at my sewing machine.

We spent today with a friend that’s been in my life for over twenty years, it was so lovely when she had a baby a few months after me. Chloe ❤️ I needed this today. Mummy’s boy and proud of it. Holmfirth: a quirky village where we have family 👨‍👩‍👦 He doesn’t stop. One of my favourite ways of seeing beautiful towns and cities! Day 2. Breakfast or champions with an Ethiopian coffee I’m ready to take on Chester! First night done, I slept in a single bed and william slept with daddy. We have arrived in our holiday home.
