Well goodness me it has been a hot minute since we last caught up hasn’t it?! Seriously, since the wedding it has just been non-stop…I can’t actually wait for Autumn to hibernate! Jokes aside we’ve had such a fun summer – here’s what we’ve been up to!

Married life has honestly been a whirlwind so far – we’ve been loving it and had so many adventures – hence why, yet again, these debriefs are coming at you a little late and lumped together. Ooops! May and June were both filled with fun and you can read aaaaaall about it below.
Continue readingWe’re a little way through June now, finally starting to get the good weather and I can’t wait for the summer to fully begin, but let me tell you – I absolutely LOVED the month of May! It was full of fun and full of bank holidays. I could definitely get used to having 3 of them a month…
On May 7th, we were invited along to Tyne Bank Brewery for their bank holiday Sunday sesh with The Cuban Brothers and let me tell you, it’s not a night I’ll be forgetting anytime soon.
Absolutely shocking that I’m merging March and April into one debrief post here but I’ve been kindaaa busy… WE GOT MARRIED! So there’s been a lot of planning/running around/sorting etc happening the past few weeks especially. Anyway, there’ll be more about the wedding another time – but here’s what I’ve been up to.

Well first of all – APOLOGIES! Can’t believe March is nearly over and I’m just writing my February debrief now. I know I always say life is busy but getting this close to the wedding (less than 5 weeks now!!) I don’t know whether I’ve been coming or going and totally forgot to write this post. Anyway, let’s just get straaaaight into it.

Veganuary is an annual challenge that encourages people to follow a vegan lifestyle for the first month of the year but of course, you can dip your toe into the vegan lifestyle any time that suits you!
Now I’m a big food lover and, predominantly, a meat eater but with having friends who are vegetarian and vegan, I’ve started to broaden my horizons a little more and dabble in plant-based cooking but hadn’t really taken the plunge to eat vegan whilst eating out.
Back in January I teamed up with This Is Durham to visit five of the best restaurants that Durham City has to offer and check out the vegan options they had available and let me tell you – they didn’t disappoint!
Can’t quite believe we’re already a month (and a bit!) into 2023 – where is the time going? January has been a busy month for us, and if I’m being honest it’s also been a little tough. January blues have most certainly been a thing and my mental health has taken a bit of a blow – I think February calls for a lot of self care and chill time. Anyway, here’s my debrief on the first month of the new year…let’s take a look what I’ve been up to!

I know we’re nearly 2 weeks into 2023 but HAPPY NEW YEAR! It’s been a busy start hence the reason my final debrief of last year is late but also – I posted every single one of them late last year so why change that habit now?! I’ve really enjoyed writing my monthly debriefs so I’m sure you’ll be happy to know that I plan on keeping them going this year. With that in mind, let’s reflect on the last month of 2022…it was pretty Christmas heavy!
Continue readingYep, it really is that time of year again!
Burgess’ Buff Blokes is back and if you’re new to my yearly post, let me tell you how it works:
1. I put together a list of my top 25 sexy celebs of the year.
2. In order to be featured they have to have done something during the year.
3. Only 3 men from my previous years list can make it into this one!
Ok so now that we’re all up to date, let’s get going with my #BurgessBuffBlokes2022
WARNING: as always, you may need to read this sat down with a glass of water in hand!

I absolutely cannot believe that we’re into the last week on the lead up to Christmas and I’m only just writing my November debrief! Can you tell it’s been a busy few weeks? Anyway November seems like a lifetime ago but here’s what I got up to…
