On a family trip and thought it would be a good idea to take the kids on a little safari at the Yala National Park. Driver was amazing and the people in Sri Lanka are next level in terms of kindness but the animals were a little less forthcoming. We were lucky enough to see…

It’s Sunday night, the work thoughts are already creeping in and I am thinking where on earth has the weekend gone? Doechii’s Anxiety on repeat in my silly little head. It’s always been the same since school and I don’t think it will ever change. I try and use this nervous energy more often than…

Free bricks obtained to do some edging. I’ve ordered a ton of sub base (not sub soil) to be delivered tomorrow along with 2 bags of cement and 5 bags of sharp sand. Still no slabs but they go on last so no worries. I’ve even put some wonky guide lines in: It’s happening!!!

I woke up this morning at 4am thinking that if I get all my admin sorted I will be able to go for a run before the kids and wife are even awake! Alas fate had different plans for me. As I am typing now my three year old daughter is shouting Pirate over and…

I was given a weekend pass to go and do some camping and hiking around Wales recently. Annoyingly I rolled by ankle the weekend before the big day, a tragic reality of being overweight and getting old. So the gruelling ascent of Snowden followed by an attempt at the Fan Dance (slowly) was sacked off.…

I know I know. Done to death but still so relevant and frustrating. This question no matter what the context explains why there isn’t world peace and harmony. ‘I don’t mind whatever you want’ – MISTAKE! This is not an acceptable response ever. You then proceed to order or make something and of course it’s…

It’s late and I can’t sleep. I did psychology and A Level – rather poorly I might add and you are able to get an insight into why! Why we sleep is one of the modules and something that I have always struggled with. I remember asking my science teacher when learning about food as…

As mentioned on Friday, I am building a Patio in my back garden all on my jack jones (like seriously friends and family nowhere to be seen). Currently, we have a hole in the ground and I have purchased a breaker from Amazon. That’s a drill that gets rid of concrete – all I can…
