Picture the scene: you’re at a beautiful home with the person you are growing to love. An open fire is burning with the occasional snap, while an Etta James record crackles seductively in the background. The first bottle of wine is almost gone. You feel complete. Happy. Sexy. You catch each other’s gaze and move... Continue Reading →
Tomorrow I turn 40. In fact, unless you read this the day it is published I already have. 14 September 2020 sees me roll from my thirties into my forties, and takes me out of an entire bracket of age groups forevermore.

I’d like to introduce you to My Friend Charlie. No, I’ve not capitalised that strangely by accident - you see, Charlie is more than simply a friend to me; Charlie is the friend we all need and one that we can all make. For those of you who haven’t come across her yet, Charlie set... Continue Reading →
I used to joke that my first child changed everything, but after that the rest were simply a matter of logistics. It's sort of true; the first time you do it, everything about your life changes.
