A couple of weeks back we took my Dad to the glorious Mint & Mustard for a Father’s Day supper. I’d heard great things about Cardiff’s ‘posher’ Indian restaurant and was looking forward to giving many of the dishes a go. Yep, they were this good: While I was there it got me thinking about […]

A special edition that captures what freelance life has brought with it. I read some awesome things (started with that Guardian cover article and chose Jay Rayner’s offering from my summer reading pile), I worked out (twice a day in some cases) – two of which were new work outs (spinning and a kettle bells session), […]

It’s time to address my Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO). I’m really starting to get on my own nerves. I’m wedded to my phone, glued to my social media feeds and constantly refreshing my stats page for my blog. My phone’s the last thing I put down at night, the first thing I pick up […]

Number thirteen (unlucky for some, definitely not me!) in a series of Friday posts looking at a very quick snapshot of the week that was. Ate: Well, drank, if we’re being particular about things. I arrived in London for the hand over of my last proper day in PR to a glorious selection of PLENISH […]

Number twelve in a series of Friday posts looking at a very quick snapshot of the week that was. This week I… Ate: Egg whites. I am the yolk’s closest friend, I extoll its virtues time and time again. But if all you want is whites and you’re not in the market for home made […]

Ok, before I open the flood gates so wide as to potentially drown myself, let me make something absolutely clear here: I AM NOT PRO GMO. Right, onwards… Regular followers of this blog will know I love a Chipotle treat. I’ve been there twice this year already – pretty good going considering I made my […]

The blow of having to be in London on a weekend to sit a bio-chemistry exam was cushioned by my first visit to CrossFit Hackney. Last Friday night I shut the revision books, stuck two fingers up to oxidative phosphorylation and the Bohr (bore…?) Effect and headed East to London’s hottest new workout ticket in […]

Number eleven in a series of Friday posts looking at a very quick snapshot of the week that was. Ate: Nothing hugely spectacular, I must admit BUT this week has been all about being organised. I’ve been working, spinning a thousand side project plates and prepping for my exam on Saturday. As such, food prep […]

Last week I did a wall walk. A proper one. My first proper one. Chest to floor to start, belly button to wall to finish. It felt so good. This wall walk got me thinking – amazing the kind of thoughts that whip through your mind as all the blood rushes to your head – […]
