I’ve been wondering about this for a while. I don’t identify as a mummy blogger, but you could say I am one. After all, my social handles are ‘Divamum’ —kind of a give away. Did I used to fall solely into this category – I don’t know. Do any ‘mum bloggers’ define themselves as just
I wouldn’t say this is necessarily the Corona talking, rather that the Corona has amplified a feeling that I’ve been suppressing for some time now. The anxiousness of the lockdown has been a trigger for longstanding but previously ignored concerns which are now frenetically bubbling to the surface. It’s week seven of lockdown (or is
The start of 2020 feels like a million lightyears ago. We’ve been in lockdown for what feels like a lifetime and I think it is safe to say that we’re all desperate to get back to normality and live normally again. But – us wanting to leave the house and do whatever we please may

I have noticed a trend in the things mentioned, and have
We will certainly all look back in years to come and remember the year 2020! The year in which our worlds were spun upside down and the word ‘unprecedented’ got flung around more than roger Federer’s tennis racket. For me as a business owner these past few weeks have certainly been a rollercoaster ride, with
I would claim that I binged on Love Is Blind because of the Coronavirus lockdown, but if I’m being completely honest, I’ve never needed a global pandemic as an excuse to consume episode after worthless episode of whatever candyfloss viewing Netflix has churned out. I resisted watching the show for all of three days, but
People keep saying things to me like ‘can’t wait to go out when is over’ as if it’s expected that we are all super excited about socialising again. We must surely all be desperate to get to that overcrowded bar with friends we’ve been avoiding for ages? No, I’m kidding – normalcy is an exciting
Once upon a time, in the not-so-distant-past, print magazines were thriving in the media industry and were the be-all and end-all of everything current in the world. When I was about 12, I used to read Sneak obsessively, it was the pinnacle of print media for me and social media wasn’t a major phenomenon like
