I Escaped Reality; and COULD have lost my head!
As many of my friends and some random strangers who bring up the subject know, I love doing escape rooms. The first one I ever did was at Escape Reality in Coventry when it only had the original 6 rooms.

Where has 2018 gone?
Is it just me or has this year flown by? The year feels like I have done so much and yet also seems that I have missed out on several things at the same moment. Although it feels like 2018 has been a bad year overall for me, I still remember so many lovely things … Continue reading Where has 2018 gone?

When I first moved into my flat a year and a half ago I thought I would be generally fine. Although I live very close to a wooded area, my flat is on … Continue reading Fortifying the Flat
On holiday without internet
I recently went on holiday with my family for a week. I travelled to my hometown of Portsmouth and then we travelled on to the Isle of Wight. I love the Isle of Wight, it is where my parents always took us for our holidays every year. I remember joining in with the party dances … Continue reading On holiday without internet
Getting Life in Order
I feel like I have been out of sorts for a while now. Since July last year I have been feeling less positive and lacking motivation. Things are not back to 100%, but it is slowly starting to move in the right direction. Recently, I have been trying different ways to get myself motivated. I … Continue reading Getting Life in Order
