So I haven’t posted in a while, not since my epic dissertation write up started. I went back to my home town last weekend for my hen – the big day is looming!! You learn something new every day and here’s what I learned: that zumba music is awesome that fairy dances are hilarious to both [...]
Luggage Etiquette
So I was on a 5 hour train journey. Sat on a table in the quiet coach and put my bag under my chair. What happens 2 hours into the journey? This loud obnoxious woman sits behind me, pushes her suitcase in front of her, in other words, under my chair. So my bag gets [...]
Ride and what?
My eyesight is either getting that much worse, or my imagination is just getting ridiculous. On the train I saw a poster advertising train travel, one should “Ride and Explore”.

Sympathy? Never?
It’s a friend’s birthday today, and she’s getting sympathy. Why? She has an exam tomorrow. Now don’t get me wrong, sure, I sympathise with her. Of course, she’s a friend.
