Hot tubs in a field…it works

November 4, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

You know what else works... watching great films from the 90s with huge american sized mugs of tea and flapjack cookies, with a blanket over you and your school friends legs in one of their living rooms. Or laughing so hard at a story in outdoor hot tub, you throw your head forward in a … Continue reading Hot tubs in a field…it works

Let’s change the narrative

November 4, 2018November 4, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

This is typical of me-I am about to blog my thoughts on a topic I have not a huge depth of knowledge about but have had lots of conversations about, have shed tears over and felt utterly lost around the issue. Well kids what a fun start that is!! But yes, as clearly stated in … Continue reading Let’s change the narrative

Why does he do that?

October 23, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

I know some of you read this blog, not to laugh at my witty insights (although at rare moments they can be absolute genius, if I do say so myself), nor to marvel at my knowledge of 90s pop culture (I really should have written for Smash Hits (well ideally some TV version of Smash … Continue reading Why does he do that?

Protect or Prevent

October 22, 2018October 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

After one of the previous storms (Callum or Betty or whoever...this naming thing seems all very surreal) I was walking around a local woodland and came across these young trees which were encased in protective cases, but the wind had bent them all over the place. This got me thinking...what happens when the things we … Continue reading Protect or Prevent

Protect yourself

September 23, 2018September 24, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / 1 Comment

Feels like a strap line for contraception or a seat belt or maybe just a health checkup...if it isn't already then maybe I am better at this marketing malarkey than I knew. Move over  #madmen its #madjen (doesn't quite have the same ring to it) Every now and again I have a bit of a … Continue reading Protect yourself

The friendship I grieve

September 18, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

Dear old friend, You and I  have been there through so much. And now you are not there. But you haven't died, we just no longer speak. We didn't fall out-or I don't think we did. But we haven't spoken in years. No one thing is to blame, or person, or even situation. Which I … Continue reading The friendship I grieve

Weekend Away

September 17, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

So last weekend we went away with our church. It's a weekend with some teaching but also time to just get to know each other and truth be told I wasn't massively looking forward to it. We arrived tired and I was nervous about how I would find it, how Faith would get on-she's been … Continue reading Weekend Away

Grief is a bitch

September 8, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

I feel the need to just add a bit of an introduction to this post. I am not currently struggling with grief, well nothing recent. But in the last few weeks I have seen friends and family entangled by it through losing a loved one, a job, the ending of a dream/hope.  Although I am … Continue reading Grief is a bitch

This is not my finest hour

August 20, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

This is not the most embarrassing time; accidentally starting to strip in a crowded room, comically slipping head over heels (or actually more ass over tit) on a banana skin on the way back from a night out or going dressed as king Kong to a party when I was 17 years old when everyone … Continue reading This is not my finest hour

Climbing out of my comfort zone

August 17, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

So on Tuesday night I found myself clinging on to what looked like an purple soap dish that had been cemented into a wall about 4 metres above the ground. My whole body ached and despite feeling pretty healthy of late, at that moment I was all too aware that I was carrying extra weight. … Continue reading Climbing out of my comfort zone
