Adam starts his Post Graduate Masters course this week and I am, of course, very proud of everything he's done in the last few years. It all started back in 2017 when he applied for a full time access course in Humanities and Social Science to enable him to go to University. I wanted to write more about how his degree went, how he acheived a 2:1 degree whilst working full time, becoming a new dad, learning to drive and without leaving school with hardly any GCSE's. I'm incredibly proud ... Read more
Having an MRI – Brain Scan
So I recently wrote that I haven't been very well lately and had to go to an opthamologist after an optician appointment, which then referred me for an MRI.

Making Home Made Steamed Fluffy Bao Buns
Recently I found a kit from School of Wok in Sainsburys that taught you had to make Steamed Fluffy Bao Buns at home.

My love for them began in 2019 with the Wagamama's steamed fluffy buns and then lockdown hit and I couldn't get them anymore. Now I know how to make them my life feels complete. It was probably one ... Read more
Black Widow Film Review
I love the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I'm a huge fan of superheroes and really love the direction the Marvel franchise is going on the screen from the recent Disney+ TV shows. Adam has been particularly looking forward to the Black Widow movie although I wasn't quite as excited - Wanda (Scarlet Witch) is my go to and favourite is really the only reason why - but we paid the premier access fee of £20 to watch in the comfort of our home. I can not tell you how much I love this adjustment ... Read more
