These were written for The Worthing Herald, from the present day dating back to about 2009. Before 2009, my parents clipped them out of the paper and kept them in a box file. 

After 11 years I've finally decided to bring this column to an end, and so am VERY INTERESTED in a new weekly gig. If you'd like me to write for your paper, magazine, website or pamphlet, please let me know.

In which plus-size fashion has all the more to love...

Savoury porridge! No I’m not sure either.
I thought I was proficient in dhal, then @thepantryman #Stockbridge put it on toast and I realised I am a rank amateur.
Charity shop barg of the week: fabulously kitsch 1930s (ish) bakelite shell mirror compact from @dogstrustshops Brighton. £3. 🧜‍♀️

Full of the joys etc etc. Also an unprecedented first Frap Of The Season because life is short and you can get them with oat milk now. 📸 @misssisig who just casually caught me off-guard in this verdant alleyway.

Struggling to understand how I’m even related to someone who can run 26 miles. So very proud of @bravoontour 🏅#BrightonMarathon
