My goodness, I am sitting watching the announcement of the new Pope with my heart thumping. I can’t help it: I love Pomp and Ceremony. I blame growing up in the Armed Forces, where everything has ceremony attached. I wonder if the new Pope had any idea how his day would end when he woke [...]

Good Reads: Trauma, loss & parenthood
Can I just say how-the-heck-did-we-make-it-to-the-middle-of-February-already? No, genuinely! Half the country is on half-term and we are headed to Galway on Friday and I thought I had more time.

Good Reads: Thrush, depression & more
This is it, people, 2013. We survived the end of the World and the Christmas Binge and the repeats on TV. We’ve stepped over the threshold of a New Year. Even better, the schools have gone back, and routines that had been abandoned for the past fortnight (in my case nearly a month) are back [...]

Good Reads: Goodbyes, nicknames & carrier bags
This BritMum’s Good Reads is brought to you by the letters T, S and I – standing for Temporary Stand In, which is infact Moi. I am kind of glad it’s temporary too, as Kate is an incredibly hard act to follow, and boy is it difficult deciding which (out of thousands of genuinely) Good [...]
Good Reads: Memories, lucky socks and half-naked men
Right, tissues at the ready … because today’s Good Reads is going to be my last one for BritMums. I’m going to be moving onto pastures new and that will all be announced next week, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with BritMums and I’m really looking forward to speaking at BritMums Live! Hope to see [...]
