Matching on Facebook dating, I was impressed with this man. He was forward with planning a date and seemed to grasp the concept of masculine and feminine energy. He booked a table for drinks and snacks. I was early- I always am. So I popped into the pub for a quick trip to the bathroom.… Continue reading Mr Lamb Shank
I’ve done this twice now. I’ve been thinking about it for about a year, following a local speed dating organisation on social media. Then the organiser got in touch with me via my Tinder profile and invited me along. After my experience with The Magician, I decided to go for it so I booked my… Continue reading Speed Dating

I write poems for happy occasions (birthdays, weddings, anniversary’s) and for sad ones (funerals). This has been a sad week. I might not be any good at it but I don’t care. I thought I’d hear from you today, A sign that you’re thinking of me. A little bit of normality, A reminder of what… Continue reading A Poem
The gym is not my natural habitat. I’ve never been a very physically fit person. I’ve never really shown any physical or sporting prowess. As a result I’m ridiculously unhealthy and suffer from a bad case of cellulite on my arse and thighs. As a relatively small girl, I hate this about myself. I had… Continue reading Hot Tub

It’s holiday season, there’s been a heatwave, I’m about to board a plane to Greece for a week. I’ve got to get my body out. I’m dreading it. It’s no secret that I’m not a big fan of my body. I don’t know many women who are. I was chatting to one of my friends… Continue reading Beach Bodies
Took my children swimming today. This isn’t unusual, it’s one of our favourite things to do together. My kids are confident in the pool, more so than me and therefore like to swim and do tricks underwater. I’m trying to tone up a bit so despite having to supervise them, I try to keep my… Continue reading Wobbly bits
Baby don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me, no more!!! It’s dawned on me recently that despite my marriage and a couple of other long term relationships, I’m not sure if I’ve ever been ‘in love’. What even is that? How does one know? What if my ‘in love’ is different to my partners idea of… Continue reading What is love?
Almost two years ago I met a man who I knew early on would become very important to me. We both carry a lot of baggage and have been slowly finding our way around having a relationship. He knows that at times I have been frustrated by this but there have been times that I… Continue reading Love
