Yes and you should to!
Do you vote in political elections? It’s important to vote. To have your say. Even if it is for a party I don’t agree with. I would still rather you voted for them than no vote at all. Yesterday from 6am till 10pm I welcomed people into a school vote so they could cast their…

Aren’t we all a little lost?
What gives you direction in life? I am not sure I have any direction at the moment. I may be a tiny bit bored sometimes but in general I am content. I guess I am a little lost. Working in retail I always craved to work up into the creative section but now I work…

A stitch in time saves nine
Do you have a quote you live your life by or think of often? Just do it- Nike changed it to. Because if you do it now, you save yourself work later. I also like the phrase by cheap by twice. Because it’s all true.

Outdoor living yes please, but bring the comforts!
Have you ever been camping? I have lots of fond memories of camping. In the New Forest being woken up by ponies, latitude festival with Gavin, a friends wedding and of course my own wedding.

A miracle happened: my first edible radish
What are your favorite vegetables to grow? Radish are supposed to be the easiest veggie to grow. Which is harrowing when I have been trying and failing. Last year I ended up letting them all flower because they bolted and they get bitter. The conditions are great for salad at the moment. My lettuce is…

Rainham Hall National trust
Discovering beautiful places I have always thought that Rainham was a bit of a shit hole, apologies Rainham. It’s surrounded by lots of flats and warehouses and generally appears a bit gray and soulless. I should have known that every ugly has a beauty and Rainham village is adorable. Beautiful buildings, independent shops little pubs…

Once upon a broken heart Falling in love
Describe a risk you took that you do not regret. Never regret love. You can regret how it ended. What you endured for far too long. The bad bits. But never regret falling in love. It’s magical. But new love and growing love is worth it. I let myself love again over heartbreak and it’s…

Putting my foot down on big house decisions
What would you do differently? The building work still hasn’t started. If I had had who I wanted and trusted we may be almost finished rather than haven’t started. It’s only a focus at the moment because our neighbour is started a renovation and will be finished before us. It’s a similar design and his…
