Black Lives Matter

The death of George Floyd has shocked and enraged the world and the protests that have been and continue to be carried out in the USA over this past week are long overdue. But this is also the first time that I have ever been face to face with my own privilege. As it stands … Continue reading Black Lives Matter

Keeping entertained during Isolation

No matter where you are in the world it is likely that you are having to self-isolate, or at most practice social distancing as the dreaded coronavirus spreads.

Wash your hands!!

Taylor Tries to free roam bunnies: A journey

We have had our two bunnies, Lola (the fluffy lionhead) and Sasha (brown and white) for just over 6 months now, and I love them more than anything else in this world.

When I first went vegan, this was the hardest thing to come to terms with: No proper pizza, with that beautiful instagram worthy stretchy cheese. For the first few years of my journey, I had become … Continue reading Taylor Tries Papa John’s ‘Pepperoni’

The little things in life

Every day at work, at around 12.30pm, one of the council street cleaners will do her round outside of my office where I currently work. She pushes her cart, sweeps up old cigarette butts and crisp packets, before taking a 5 minute breather on the park bench. At around 12.45pm, the man I can only … Continue reading The little things in life
