It is famous for its cobbled streets, olde world sweet shop, apothecary and of course it was the home of The Brontës from 1820 until 1861.

Things I love (There’s a lot of stuff)
I was once told that I use the word ‘love’ too often and if it was said too much it lost it’s meaning. Well b***s to that! I love lots of things. Plus, the word ‘love’ just rolls nicely off the tongue, ‘like’ is too much effort 😛 So here is myContinue reading “Things I love (There’s a lot of stuff)”
Keeping up with the Jones’
How often are you comparing yourself to others? Do you look at other people and wish you had their hair, their shoes, their money?

How is it fairContinue reading “Keeping up with the Jones’”

However I do believe to some extent that we are mollycoddling ourselves and exacerbating the situation. As much as awareness needs to be raisedContinue reading “Stop labelling yourself”
