‘Beware the Ides of March!’ A Shakespearean Caesar was warned, but I feel the opposite. I welcome Spring with arms outstretched and the enrapture of a child on Christmas Eve. Spring brings with it a natural feeling of rejuvenation, hope and optimism that is as apparent as the new flowers that bloom. The sun that... Continue Reading →
I've had a week of socialising this week - out for dinner, went to gigs, spoke to friends. It was basically a holiday week without boarding a plane, packing a bag or actually going anywhere.

When life resumes back to normal in June, I think I'll be referring back to these lockdown mixtapes again and again. It's been a mad time but, somehow, I think I'll miss the introverted days indoors.
