10 Things you learn when you have surgery.

Heart 10 December 2015
   I've been meaning to write more 'heart' posts but its tough, sometimes I plan to write something and then get weird, upset, or I get all in my head and can't get words down, so I don't write, or I just feel like I'm being too open maybe? Or that its too far since then to be relevant (because it feels like...

Little Things #2

Fitness 30 November 2015
Many weeks ago, not long after I had come out of hospital I wrote about some of the little things that were helping me feel better, both physically and in general. So we are now 25* weeks on from my operation. That's right, 25 weeks ago I was sitting in St Thomas' Hospital watching the filming of James Bond from my window, listening...

Five things that have changed while Busted have been apart.

Busted 12 November 2015
It was a Friday night, we sat in Pizza Hut after only ordering chocolate fudge cake trying you work it out. What could out happened to make something that was so great go so so wrong? What was going to happen next? Would we ever see them again? Why would Charlie leave Busted? That was 10 years ago, when a lot of my friends weren't old...

Heart 20 October 2015

American beauties in Leeds - Fall Out Boy review.

Fall Out Boy 12 October 2015
Last week saw the return of Fall Out Boy to the UK, so my sister and I headed to Leeds to see them (again). Our evening began with Professor Green, who may be an unusual choice of support for Fall Out Boy and isn't someone I'd pay see headline, but he was really good. Really! And while I'm not rushing to see him again, I...

Music 03 October 2015
One direction at the Apple Music festival. If you don't know, for 10 nights every September Apple take over the Roundhouse in Camden and fill it with some of the best music artists on the planet, a crowd lucky enough to have won a pair of tickets and then broadcast the show on iTunes/Apple music. So a little over a week ago I...

Me, My blog and I.

Life 30 September 2015
  So this is my blog. Annoyingly it's taken me ages to make it look this way. Not all because I'm bad at HTML and CSS, (I'm still learning it as I go though) but because I was trying to make it look 'perfect'. I never used to care about how it looked, what I wrote. I did what I pleased and made...

Adventure 25 August 2015

Fitness 31 July 2015
Normally I don't bother keeping track of how much exercise I get.  I'm pretty good at knowing how my body works and  making sure I stay as fit and healthy, but now is not 'normally' and I'm trying to build up my strength and I've been looking for some kind of device or app to help, without having to spend loads of money,...

Day 14

Heart 29 June 2015
This time two weeks ago I was still in theatre.  The time since I went to sleep at 11am two weeks ago has pretty much been a blur.  I know it's two weeks later but I'm still struggling with the concept of the time I've missed and what has happened since. Lots has happened but I can't pin point much of it.  I...

Day 9 (I think)

Heart 24 June 2015
Today I am walking around on my own unaided, have had all the wires pulled from out of my chest and able to go get myself a cup of tea. The only thing that makes today better is the view. ...

Its today

Heart 15 June 2015
So its, some stupid time in the morning and today is the actual day my doctor rips apart my chest and does some kind of medical magic. To say I'm scared is an under statement, I haven't slept (but I think I'll be getting more than enough sleep this week). I've managed to stay distracted by the filming of some James Bond scenes...

A few days to unwind and feel better

Adventure 11 June 2015
So this week has been relatively stress free, I've managed to get away for a few days, visiting my little sister in her uni town of Sheffield. Sometimes it's just a change of scenery and something to look forward too that makes a massive difference to your headspace. I've also made sure that I got to see some old friends at the weekend,...
