I really need to chill. I would say 2018 has been the most stressful year of my life, but the reality is that it’s probably only in the top three. I feel like I’ve been stressed pretty much since I…
I’m pretty skint at the moment, as I save and save and save as the flat purchasing process drags on and on (I hate solicitors), and I couldn’t really afford a holiday in the latter part of the year. I…
I’m back with a wee book review today. Considering Godsgrave came out almost a year ago this review is hardly hot off the presses, but after recently checking it out from the library I found that I had a few…
