    Misadventure: No such thing as a free pedicure

    Misadventure: No such thing as a free pedicure

    When I was nineteen, I saw an advert in the back of a TV guide. Choose 10 books for £10 and get a free luggage set! Wow. I thought this sounded like the deal of the century! I loved books and luggage. I filled out the application form, picked my books and wrote a cheque […]

    How to have the best British picnic ever (with kids)!

    Picnics are a national pastime in Britain. I don’t know about you, but in the past few years my picnics have been a bit uninspired. I got into this rut of grabbing a drink, crisps and a veggie sausage roll, stuffing them in my handbag and dashing out of the house before it rains again. […]

    What my ADHD means for my daily life

    The first thing a lot of neurotypical people (NTs) say to me when I tell them I have ADHD is “ah we all forget things sometimes” or “it can’t be very serious if you weren’t diagnosed until an adult.” My favourite is always, “but you finished writing 20 books” which doesn’t show I don’t have […]

    Wonky ear piercings? How to fix uneven ear piercings and lobe piercings that don’t match

    So you went to a reputable salon or tattooist and asked them to pierce your ears. At some point you noticed it wasn’t quite right. In fact, they’re wonky. Your piercings are asymmetrical. Oh no! And when you search online for answers, all you get are unhelpful results about curated ear trends. I’ve been there. […]

    Review: Child’s Farm Bath Stuff

    My toddler has sensitive skin. Despite most baby products saying “gentle” or “for newborns” they break him out in a rash. I’m now quite skeptical of baby bath products, especially baby shampoo and baby bubbles. I bought the Child’s Farm stuff on some sort of special offer because it was cheaper than anything else. I […]

    Review: James Acaster’s Classic Scrapes

    Review: James Acaster’s Classic Scrapes

    James Acaster is funny. Hilarious actually. And reading his book James Acaster’s Classic Scrapes got me into a scrape of my own. It was all Dara O’Briain’s fault. See, every time I have a baby (which is twice now… welcome little butterfly), I have to sit at home on the sofa doing nothing while the […]

    How to build a tribe on YouTube

    YouTube has a reputation for being the hardest platform to build a following on. This is because it’s not forgiving if your content isn’t exactly right. Here are the five main reasons content creators can’t get a following on Youtube: Your content is too unoriginal If you’re looking to be the next anything, and all […]

    Market segments are nothing like oranges

    When I did business studies back in secondary school, the teacher explained market segments as “like an orange” which is about the most useless analogy I ever came across because it tells you nothing about segments. A market segment is not like an orange. Here’s why: Segments are not a symmetrical, even division of market […]
