My oh my, it’s highly cliche and pathetic of me to state but it is ridiculously hot while I am writing this. In fact it has been so hot the last couple of days that I was told one point a part on the roof of the hospital reached 40 degrees centigrade. Britain is not... Continue Reading →
I'm enjoying these neck appreciation posts and I hope that you are too! For this week I thought it would be nice to show you one of my favourite named parts of the body there is - the sternocleidomastoid muscle. This muscle is pretty big and you will all have felt or seen it, even... Continue Reading →
Not entirely sure where to start with a weekly update, in comparison to last week this one was fairly uneventful all in all. I wanted to get out my Neck Appreciation Post by mid week but I only got a chance to finish it yesterday which meant it posted today also because I like to... Continue Reading →

What if shrouds did have pockets? I mean, it’s not as if you could fit much in there but it would be... Continue Reading →
Possibly a slightly controversial opinion but I think Buffy The Vampire Slayer is one of the greatest television series ever made. It has been there with my for most of my life and will always be a ‘go-to’ for me. I felt like I wanted to write this, and then considered how it might be... Continue Reading →
As promised, here I am back in July to start again with my posts. I am pleased to write that I have been looking forward to doing this yet again and I feel much better than I did when I decided to take the break. The anxiety is still there, brimming under the surface of... Continue Reading →
