Silly not serious

Cooler in my head

October 15, 2018October 15, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / 1 Comment

Anyone else get out of the shower and as they are getting dressed do approximately 30 seconds of jumping about/raving and consider that a good exercise for the start of the day? I mean if those vibrating plates, that are constantly advertised on the shopping channels early in the morning, work-surely jiggling and wiggling works? … Continue reading Cooler in my head

Getting a job

October 2, 2018October 2, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

What an absolute nightmare... Firstly there's the finding one-scrolling job adverts is possibly the most depressing thing and akin to grazing your knee at the beginning of a winter hockey lesson outside and then having to keep going for a whole  hour whilst the shin pad rides up on your frozen legs and presses on … Continue reading Getting a job

On the fringe thoughts’

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

So this blog is dedicated to my fringe, which is non-conformist and seems to BE  not at all affected by any current trends or fashion. Instead it is on a quest to live a life that epitomises freestylin'. Here is what I imagine it is thinking... Me: I am going to take some time this … Continue reading On the fringe thoughts’

An ode of gratitude to Parks and Crackers

August 31, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

I mean it You guys rock, take a bow,  you small but amazing wonders. This summer has reminded me that you, my friends, are lifesavers. And lifesavers is the right word-you were there at the beginning of my walking and eating life and you are still here now. Like the circle of life, instead of … Continue reading An ode of gratitude to Parks and Crackers

Oh you wonderful Midlands women…

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

I am originally from Brum...and so very proud of it. I grew up in the Westcountry-which I also love A LOT! But my roots are firmly in the Midlands, and it was evident to everyone around us in Somerset that we were not a local family. When my mum yelled; 'Jenniiiiiiiiiiii can I have a … Continue reading Oh you wonderful Midlands women…

Topiary or hairy

August 3, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / 1 Comment

The conundrum of whether or not to remove hair? It's a funny old world hair removal...the advertising is clever, it works from the assumption that of course it needs to be gone but as a woman you can feel empowered in the choice of how you choose to remove it!What joy! And what beautiful choices … Continue reading Topiary or hairy

Long hot summer

July 26, 2018September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / Leave a comment

I have just goggled songs with 'hot' in the title from the 90s/early 2000 and came across Nelly's 'Hot s#*t' which is frankly a pile of misogynistic crap...it does have one redeeming feature in that it uses a rap from the movie 'Big' starring Tom Hanks, which is one film I loved not simply because … Continue reading Long hot summer

Things to not do in an interview…

November 29, 2017September 22, 2018 / wrenandsquirrel / 1 Comment

I would say I am a fairly confident, positive person that can talk the hind legs off a donkey...and yet in interviews I can be weird, very weird (actually maybe not just interviews now I think about it...) I manage to attract some 'special situations' around me as well as say some stupid things. For … Continue reading Things to not do in an interview…
