Note to all children: we do not look in your eyes and automatically absorb your entire timetable requirements. We don't have an inbuilt body scan that alerts to your 8.42am need for rugby kits and motherfucking ground almonds for food tech. We shouldn't 'JUST KNOW'

Me: Really need to finish line edits on new book. I will not get distracted today.
Also me: Now is a REALLy good time to teach myself how to read runes

In four years this will be me apparently

Blackmailed my teenage boys into hanging out with me using nachos. Now forcing them to watch Easy A as a teachable moment re: slut shaming, the absolute best teen film since John Hughes.

My 16 year old son has just tried to school me on the drunken tactical vom.
Oh you sweet summer child.

Got SO excited pitching the new Journalism in Film and Fiction module with Dr James Whitworth for Sheffield Journalism final year students that I clapped my hand like a toddler (*loser) Sooooooo happy James is letting me teach on it with him. 😍😍😍😍

Oof Baby Reindeer. Jesus. That was gruelling and yet somehow beautiful.

People with ADHD shouldn't be allowed in Pets at Home..I was seconds away from buying an emergency guinea pug until I got distracted by a mate calling....also left without the dog food I went for

When you have to take a break from hoovering because pug wants to tell you he loves you

So lucky to have spent the day at York's wellbeing festival with my big sister. We are ten years apart with different dads and total opposites in every way but she is my absolute rock and I love her so much for everything she has done for me - both when I was little and now. 🥰🥰

Just bought a moldavite crystal and apparently my life is about to be savagely transformed. Was told to 'buckle up' 🥹🥹 check back for updates

Mega achievement from my agency buddy! So well deserved

This week we really need toys and books for 0-5yrs!
We have 32 referrals for toys and most of our boxes are low!

If you have any good quality toys, games, jigsaws, etc. or board books or story books to donate, we would love to pass them on to another family for you this week!

It’s my stop on the #BlogTour of the brilliantly pacy and twisty #TheVanishingOfJoniBlackwood by ⁦Lisa Bradley⁩ and ⁦Orion Publishing⁩. Head over to my Insta to hear all about it. Huge thanks to ⁦sian⁩ for the invite!

Out now. instagram.com/p/C58cddZoQUt/…

Just walked in and facebombed my son's moody rap tiktok/snapchat 50 cent soundtrack video with my hilarious hip hop dancing.
I couldn't BE more embarrassing apparently.
I'll take that challenge.
