Life was better when we used to get gold stars from our primary school teachers for doing good work. Adults should get gold stars when they do some A+ adulting such cleaning the bathroom and filling tax returns on time.

I donโ€™t want to alarm anyone, but I think we might be in the Bad Place.

Yesterday when ordering a coffee I said thank you three times and then a further three times when it was served. Yes I am British.

In the UK the only correct response to trying the toilet door when you donโ€™t realise itโ€™s occupied by a colleague is to be NOWHERE in sight once they emerge.

โ€œIโ€™m a professional author,โ€ I whisper to myself, as I google how to spell โ€˜fieryโ€™ for the eleventy billionth time

My 14yo is keen to see Jurassic World Rebirth. I have volunteered to take him to see it when the time comes in a selfless act that definitely has nothing to do with the fact that it stars Jonathan Bailey wearing adorable glasses

Forming my own quest squad. Basically, the mission is to read books without judging othersโ€™ book choices, drink coffee, and eat pastries all while under fleecy blankets in front of a log fire.
Whoโ€™s in?

โ€˜Itโ€™s just not my cup of teaโ€™ is the highest insult in British culture

Fellow people who are attracted to menโ€”find yourself someone like my husband who this evening twerked on our driveway to welcome me home from work.

Perhaps if my memory werenโ€™t so intent on remembering (with excruciating frequency and detail) all of my four decades of embarrassing moments, then perhaps thereโ€™d be room to remember important things such as where I left my keys.

Over the Christmas period whenever anyone mentions having some cheese I am obliged by law to sing in reply โ€œNo cheeses for us meecesโ€

Am I meant to be writing? Yes.
But instead am I watching the Aussie version of Death in Paradise? Also yes.

If anyone fancies a festive read!

Running into your ex at a festive party is awkward. Even more so when heโ€™s practically naked except for a tiny apron, serving drinksโ€ฆ
