I recently got a new wheelchair, well I got it almost a year ago, but things take time to get used to. You may have heard my moans. It wasn’t until I got my new wheels, a chair totally different than any I’ve had before, that I really considered the impact my wheelchair has on… Continue reading 12 Steps to Becoming a Confident Wheelchair User (pun intended)

If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musings #1
If we were having coffee I’d tell you mine is a latte. I know I’m generally a tea drinker, a tea addict some might say. But I do drink coffee too, only the proper kind that I can’t make at home. I’d tell you a cat is sitting on my desk right in front of… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musings #1
Festivities and Kindness
It’s been a bit of a week. Two firsts for me, I had the paramedics out in the middle of Asda, and I left Father Christmas hanging. Not both at the same time I might add. There are days that go by smoothly and you forget you have a disability. Well not really forget, but… Continue reading Festivities and Kindness
100th Ramble – 100 Things I Love
Believe it or not this is my 100th blog post. I have written 100 of these things, that are now floating around the internet. That’s quite scary to think about actually. I’ve written way more in my head, and there’s a stack of them in my notes app. But not everything reads as well to… Continue reading 100th Ramble – 100 Things I Love
My Love Hate Relationship With Autumn
It’s October. That came fast. I know everybody says it but why is it time goes faster the older you get? I’m actually asking for an answer. They say time is fluid, does the speed actually change? Is a moment different for all? Surely life should feel slower as an adult when you don’t have… Continue reading My Love Hate Relationship With Autumn

Thank you to whoever nominated me, I’m (almost) totally speechless. i know it’s anonymous and all that but if you tell me who you are I’ll buy you a massive slice of cake! I’m not very good at this kinda thing. Taking compliments… Continue reading The Vote Is On – Bloggers Bash Awards
It Wasn’t Just A Snow Day
It was a snow week. I realise your probably sick of snow photos all over social media, blogs and the like. I am too. But that’s not going to stop me sharing mine. So just in case you somehow missed it the UK was hit by The Beast From The East last week, the white… Continue reading It Wasn’t Just A Snow Day
#WheelOfFact
Way back in August of 2017 I announced that I was going to start a # on Twitter, the # would be #WheelOfFact. Every Friday I would tweet a fact that was based on my blogging subjects. Many of these were disability related facts however I lightened it up a little by interspersing the gritty… Continue reading #WheelOfFact
Tea Revv Advent – Day 6-11
I’m typing this recent blogmas advent update with a cat sitting on half the keyboard, please bare with me. Let’s hope I don’t need to type ‘plomk’ too often, as he gets a bit grouchy when I try to squeeze in between his paws. You can check out my previous, cat free, advent reviews here.… Continue reading Tea Revv Advent – Day 6-11
A Jolly Good Day – On The Bus
Today (well a few days ago by the time you’re reading this) I had probably the nicest bus driver I’ve ever encountered. Odd way to start a post you might think, but for me finding nice customer service, or just meeting friendly people can make or break your day. There’s nothing more disheartening than getting… Continue reading A Jolly Good Day – On The Bus
