This track is taking me from day to evening at the moment. It’s got a real disco vibe 😀

What I’m listening to now

It’s Sunday afternoon – who doesn’t love a bit of Russian based deep-house? This act is actually quite classy – Hipstercast on Mixcloud. I listen to a lot of their mixes on repeat. Check out some of my favourites here –
Love is…

A sunny day in the woods with your trusty dog by your side. I think I’ve been going for walks in the Bramshill woods for over three years now and I’m still discovering new paths. We had a 2.5hr 12000 step epic today. Thankfully plenty of dirty puddles for Benson to rehydrate himself (he always chooses the skanky algae pool over the fresh mountain streams….dogs huh!)
Can I dig it… yes you can
My allotment life …
The sun made an early appearance today so I headed down to the allotment to do some digging. Jesus this is boring.
Babes
So my friend Tanisha is like ‘Daniel babes! How is it you’re looking so totes delish?’ And I be like ‘Tanny hun it’s obvs the no fat yogurt and fruit based diet innit!’

Hallelujah plains

it’s that time of year when you hit the forest and realise that spring is just around the corner. Had a wonderful 2hr walk with Diane and the doggies in Bramshill. Still managed to get home in time for my meeting. Life is good!
The inevitable rush

To be honest I thought it would be quicker but in less than 24hours Reading festival has sold out. By less than 24hrs I mean after they announced the festival would go ahead this year. Tickets have been on sale for months now. I bought mine ages ago. But there’s been such pent up demand for something, anything, to actually go ahead this year … once the announcement went out they came in their droves and snapped up what was left.
and of course there is the usual price-gouging going on with the touts selling for exaggerated prices on viagogo. It’ll be interesting to see if this changes the demographic. Only time will tell.
I kid you not

This is what I wake up to most mornings. Me sandwiched to the side of the bed with Lord Benson stretched out, legs akimbo, enjoying the fruits of his labour. Pffftttttt
Beside myself
I can hardly contain my excitement. For today Reading&Leeds festival have announced that they intend to go ahead this year…
Cue frantic rush to ticketmaster for the purchase of tickets. Oh no, not I, for I bought my tickets last month.
Time to start planning some outfits!
Another early rise
Not sure if it’s the sheer excitement about being free from all the madness in just 4 short months … that in itself is a shock. I’m sure it’s some form of Stockholm syndrome where you feel happy about news that’s still pretty shocking. Anyway back to the point. I’ve been wide awake since 4am again….
