What place in the world do you never want to visit? Why? America. So many humans there have forgotten how to human,so they’re making it up and… I have not enough words 🤯
Thoughts starting 2020
I have been full of a horrible head cold all week so have been very unproductive, un-enthusiastic and generally YouTubey and blobby. Finally feeling a bit more human today and thought I’d share the video link below because it popped up in my feed recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjvI0cqhan4
Choral adventures in 2019
(So I started writing this post in Feb of this year… Can’t believe it’s already September!) I auditioned for and am now a member of the Durban Symphonic Choir. A long-standing dream come true! Well, I’ve always wanted to be part of a choir; I just never thought it would be a classical symphonic choir.…… Continue reading Choral adventures in 2019
Just over a year of gym…
Feeling great, still gymming at least 3 times a week, mostly 5 times a week. The only thing holding off an extra good transformation is weekends of eating out 😅 but well pleased with where I’m at.

The crazy thing is that it’s…… Continue reading Mothers Day – it’s okay now

It’s May. Updates.
Wow! Can you imagine how fast time will seem to pass in 10 years time!? Seriously, the mind boggles. I remember booking a holiday, once, about six months in advance and it felt like it took forever to arrive. Now, I feel like I can happily wait for some occasion-to-come that’s well over a year…… Continue reading It’s May.
