If you ignore the money worries, which are frankly caused by buying presents or stuff for people, then the next biggest cause for trouble at Christmas or other big family events and parties is PEOPLE! So this months feature for Danny Smith from Radio Verulam‘s drive time show (92.6FM) was all about them and how to deal with […]
I was asked to pop onto the breakfast show for Heart Wiltshire the other week by the lovely Molly (check out what I said here on her blog) She guessed I might have strong feelings about husbands complaining that they don’t get any attention any more and that the romance has gone out of their marriage!

So lovely blog readers I have a problem for you to solve! I’ve googled it, but can’t for the life of me find a solution, so I’m turning to you incredible peeps to find one for me. Because I have a BIG problem! You know how I wrote my top tips on getting to sleep […]
