And date night curry at the Indian YMCA. It turns out I literally am a cheap date, but at £9 a person for a three course eat-all-you-want buffet of delicious, authentic Indian food, who minds being cheap? #letshearitfortheymca #cheapdate #indianymca #curry
Date night cocktails! Happy half term to us, and thank you to Granny for having the kids for a sleepover. #datenight #cocktails #outout #godblessgranny
Beautiful flooded fields (the biggest muddy puddles in the world, according to my 5yo) as we try and make it from London to Liverpool for half term. 4 hours in and we have made it to Stafford. Via Birmingham, Nuneaton and Coventry (twice!). Wish us luck... #stormdennis #scenicmidlands #arewenearlythereyet
It's my birthday today, and I am entering my last year as a thirty-something really feeling the love. My family and friends are just amazing, and at the risk of sounding smug I really couldn't ask for anything more to show for nearly 4 decades on this planet. #happybirthdaytome #thisis39
And the snowdrops are here. It's the return of new life to the wintry world, and the return of flower spam to my Insta feed. #snowdrops #signsofspring #newlife #flowerspam #ihavethisthingwithflowers
I have written an ode to joy, a celebration of everything I love and value about Europe and being a European. "Britain may officially leave the European Union today, losing much of our influence, protections and freedoms as we do so, but nothing can change simple geographic fact: we ARE Europeans, and Europeans we will remain. I hope with all my heart that this is au revoir and not goodbye." #iamaeuropean Link to full post in bio. #odetojoy #europeanunion #europhile #eu #jesuiseu
