For many of us, the summer is in full swing. Some of you may have holidays to escape normality for a few days, whilst others might prefer to spend some time enjoying the slower pace of life for a while and getting caught up on things that have been put on the backburner for a [...]
This past week has been truly glorious. Spending even just 10 minutes in the sun does wonders for me. Listening to the birds singing and the gentle breeze through the newly emerged vibrant green shoots. Whilst this warm spell is set to end next week, the brief interlude between the gloomy and cold weather has [...]
Hello everyone! Long time no speak! I have had a very busy few weeks and I have not had the time to sit down and write a post. And let me tell you, I have missed it. I have been very much aware that by not posting regularly, my little space on the internet will [...]
This month included Mental Health Awareness week. I read the entry on the Mental Health Foundation website by the Chief Executive Mark Rowland. I was struck by the honesty and the power nature has.

Something a little different today. With Covid chaos impacting on new university students, I wanted to share some tips/pieces of advice that I learnt during my time as an undergraduate. I was lucky enough to get into my first choice and was very happy with my grades. On paper, it would look like I was [...]
Hello again. Last week I found quite tough. I guess it is with things starting to pick up again as Boris wants us to get out and spend money. I can't help but think that we should be protecting people from COVID still - it still has not gone away. As I write this, [...]
Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well. Today I want to talk you through a magical wildlife encounter I had last year, which added fuel to the fire of my love of the natural world and UK wildlife. That's not to say that there has only been one occasion - that would be a [...]
