Lessons......

Wednesday, December 30, 2015
I remember how I felt this time last year; 2014 was not the best year for me personally and I was apprehensive about what 2015 would hold for me.

As the Season Changes......

Monday, November 16, 2015

It’s been 3 weeks since the clocks went back in the UK. The nights continue to get longer. Our moods, even with Christmas coming up, may match that of the days and weather – shorter and colder. The trees are practically naked; their leaves dressing our cars and streets.

The Sweetest Brunch: Counter – Vauxhall, London

Saturday, October 17, 2015

Last Sunday I ventured South of the River to attend a #ZomatoMeetUp with other fellow food bloggers, courtesy of Zomato.

Counter is a bar and brasserie, serving “New-York-style contemporary food and drinks” under Vauxhall Arches, merely seconds from Vauxhall Station (note to self and to others, if taking the underground, take the exit leading to Vauxhall Rail Station. As I’m not particularly South savvy, I did lose my way slightly).

I Am A Spartan! Spartan Super 2015

Sunday, September 27, 2015

I thought that running a half marathon would be one of the most the physically challenging event I would do this year.  And it was…until I, in a team of 5 other nutters did the Spartan Super Race last Sunday at Ashburnham Place.

Dublin Dash: Food, Food, Food

Monday, August 17, 2015
While I spent a lot of time on my feet during my few days in Dublin, when I did settle down it was to sleep or eat. One of the beauties of travelling for me is eating (in fact it’s one of the beauties of life for me). Between where I stayed in Rathmines and the City Centre there were loads of restaurants that I wanted to explore, but alas there wasn’t enough time. Or money……

But here are 3 places where I indulged my stomach:

BoBo’s Gourmet Irish Burgers

BoBo’s was the first place my friends and I ate after spending about 35 minutes walking up and down Rathmines trying to meet up with another friend!

We wanted something simple to eat and I suppose it doesn’t get much simpler than burgers.

Dublin Dash

Sunday, August 09, 2015

Last weekend I visited Dublin. I went to take part in the Rock n Roll Dublin Half Marathon (more on that later) and to for birthday celebrations of a friend, but also to have a bit of a break – affordable mind. I was with great company; friends and fellow runners from Nike+ Run Club Stratford (aka #e20Tigers).

You're Never Too Old.....

Sunday, April 26, 2015

I've recently turned a year older. Among the well wishes, cards and presents, I contemplated my future and the goals I had expected to achieve as the birthdays rolled by. But that got a bit too depressing, so I switched my thoughts to things I could still do regardless of my age...this was inspired by a post I found by Hannah Cozens while blog surfing.

1Rebel

Saturday, March 14, 2015



I got the opportunity to check out 1Rebel via Nike Women. 1Rebel is one of the latest boutique fitness establishments to arrive in London, having opened its first studio in January 2015 at St. Mary's Axe (City of London). Another studio is due to open at Broadgate, City of London soon. Like Barry's Bootcamp it does away with subscriptions and memberships; all classes are pay-as-you-go.

Tighten and Tone: Ellie Goulding x N+TC

Saturday, March 07, 2015
I received an email invite by Nike Women to attend the launch of Ellie Goulding’s Tighten and Tone N+TC workout on 03 March 2015. It was last minute (i got the email maybe 18 hours before the event) and I wasn't even sure if I was going to make it because of work; nevertheless I RSVP'd for myself and a friend and hoped I would make the launch.....

Loving Right Now - Soul Rich

Sunday, February 22, 2015
It’s been a while since I acquired a mixtape; these days I tend to listen to music via YouTube or Soundcloud. But when a music artist makes quality music, it’s worth supporting their progression by purchasing their music.

I’ve been following 4i, an up and coming London rapper for a while; he is definitely one to watch.

We are well and truly into 2015! Probably by now you would know whether those resolutions and/or goals are going to stick or are going into the bin.

ClockJack - Soho, London

Tuesday, February 03, 2015
If I asked you to mention a chicken restaurant, I'm pretty confident that the first/popular response would be Nandos. For a long time Nandos has been the place to go when co-workers, families, friends and couples have wanted an affordable chicken meal; and it's easy to do so since as of 2015 there are over 300 branches in the UK alone. However there has been a rise in chicken restaurants around London.....I'm not surprised; the burger market is over saturated.

Winter festivities may have ended for many on New Year's Day, but for me they have continued well into January in the form of catch-ups and birthday meals. Here's a lowdown what's been filling my stomach:
