Hello and welcome to this, my brand new bi-monthly feature where I will be keeping it a little bit…lighter. I have finally reached an equilibrium where I feel able to go out and enjoy myself and consume and comment on culture. So this is where I will write about the things I have read, watched, bought and done that have filled my pockets with joy. I’ll share the things I like that I hope you will like too, because my pockets have hitherto had nothing in them but a metaphorical crumpled up tissue. While I agree that rampant consumerism is not the answer to the planet’s problems, it is January and I have been through hell, so if I can cheer myself up with a little bit of reading, watching and shopping so can you!
In a surprise to absolutely no-one, I am going to confirm your suspicions. Yes, this woman who left the UK to move to Mallorca really hates winter. I hate the cold, I hate the dark, I really, really hate layering. I’m a tanned skin, strip of linen type of dresser. I feel my best in shorts, skorts and sunscreen. But to get through winter without looking like a hobo I have two steadfast rules.
Feel soft. Smell good.
