How time flies. The summer is over and I’m back in London. What do I have to show for my summer in Ibiza? Not much in the way of blog posts that’s for sure. It amazes me how much time I spent chasing after my little son, which was such an amazing joy. I’m also… [Read more…]

Less than 24 hours to go before the wedding that‘s being billed as the biggest royal event in 30 years. To be honest I’m not that fussed about it but am loving the way everyone is wholeheartedly jumping on the bandwagon. Notting Hill today is a sea of red, white and blue. I thought I’d share with… [Read more…]
