BLOG: October, November and December Round-Up

January 8, 2020January 9, 20202 Comments

The last few months of 2019 were particularly hectic for me - at the end of October I was in a car accident when someone ran into the back of me, and while it was comparatively minor (I survived, my car was less lucky) it felt like the next two months were eaten up entirely … Continue reading BLOG: October, November and December Round-Up

BLOG: August and September Round-Up

October 2, 2019September 30, 20191 Comment

Autumn is my favourite time of year, and late summer where my garden is still in flower, but there's a chill in the air and there's that wonderful golden light? That's my absolute jam. Sitting outside in the sunshine in the afternoon, then curling up under a blanket inside in the evening feeling cosy is … Continue reading BLOG: August and September Round-Up

BLOG: June and July Round-Up

August 7, 2019August 6, 20193 Comments

August! This year seems to be flashing by so quickly, but I have to say I have been enjoying the nice weather. More time to sit in the garden and read my books. Have you had any good books set aside for the summer? Or are you saving them up for holiday reading? REVIEWS Legend … Continue reading BLOG: June and July Round-Up

BLOG: April and May Round-Up

June 5, 2019June 4, 201913 Comments

This year is whizzing by far faster than I realised! 13th June will mark 6 months in my role at Igloo, which is extremely exciting. I can't believe how quickly it's gone. Mostly now I'm looking forward to a long, hot summer of lounging in my garden and reading all the books I have piled … Continue reading BLOG: April and May Round-Up

BLOG: February and March Round-Up

April 10, 2019April 8, 20197 Comments

Things sort of got away from me a bit over the last couple of months, which is why this round-up covers both February and March. Spring has sprung! As we step past the daffodils and blink in the sunlight, remember that if you want to sit inside in the darkness, there's plenty to read. REVIEWS … Continue reading BLOG: February and March Round-Up

BLOG: January Round-Up

February 13, 2019February 10, 20198 Comments

I cannot believe that January is over already! I feel like I'm still only just getting the hang of normal life again - although some people might contest that assessment. I'm looking forward to more sunshine and longer days, although I don't doubt we've got at least two or three more cold snaps to go … Continue reading BLOG: January Round-Up

BLOG: November and December Round-Up

January 4, 2019January 3, 20191 Comment

This is a little later than anticipated - largely because the last few weeks have been pretty busy! With Christmas finally over, things are starting to calm down a bit. If you guys are stuck on what to do with your time in the long January days, here's a run down of November and December's … Continue reading BLOG: November and December Round-Up

BLOG: October Round-Up

November 2, 20181 Comment

October is one of my favourite months of the year – it marks the beginning of a run of my favourite things, Halloween through to Christmas. My wedding anniversary is this month, which is always nice to celebrate as an excuse for some more cake. And perhaps because I’ve been working in a University since … Continue reading BLOG: October Round-Up

BLOG: September Round-Up

Happy October everyone! This is my favourite time of year, I love the quality of the light you get on an Autumn afternoon and the chill in the air. It makes me just want to curl up and snuggle with a fire and a nice glass of wine. A good book and a blanket always … Continue reading BLOG: September Round-Up
