Misadventure: 4am in a tree with a flute
When I was at uni I thought I did ridiculous deeds because I was drunk, but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to realise that I did ridiculous deeds anyway, and sometimes I was also partially inebriated.

Your house wasn’t full of these?) and my mum’s… random collection of shite like an owl dressed to play cricket draped with random offcuts of […]

Misadventure: The Sofa Shop
When I was 8 months pregnant, I had just moved from China to Northern Ireland. I was by myself and after five fraught weeks had finally signed a lease and got some keys to a house. Unfurnished. Quite a lot of things for sale online have secret smallprint that you don’t spot until you try […]
