Something New each Day

Hiya my lil' fairies, Strictly is well and truly underway and I feel like that starts an actual routine in my life based on the Strictly TV schedule. Monday to Thursday is It Takes Two at 6:30, Friday is It Takes Two at 6:00, Saturday is the main show and Sunday is the results show. My week is filled from Strictly from start to finish! So we're three weeks in and I think it's time to write about my favourite couples and who I think are front runners: 1. Jonnie Peacock and Oti Mabuse I have always been a sucker for Jonnie from the 2012 Olympics and I have a slight obsession with Oti! So, I was thrilled at how surprisingly good Jonnie has been for an athlete, we might even have another Greg Rutherford on our hands? Oti always gives her partners great choreography and I think that Jonnie has perfectly adapted to her teaching style and is basking in her strict tactics. They work perfectly together and have pretty similar competitive ethics which makes for a perfect ...

Hiya guys, The Strictly tour has been over for a while but my brain hasn't wrapped itself around the fact that I have to wait until September for it too start again. But, these Strictly posts are going to keep coming until I've maybe done one for every bit of Strictly possible. If you follow me on any of my social media, or have followed my last few posts, you'll know that Claudia Fragapane and AJ Pritchard were one of my favourite couples in the show and I was gutted that they didn't make it to the final. It wasn't just because they were amazing together and danced amazingly, I think it helped that they are pretty similar age as me (Claudia is 19, I'm 20 and AJ is 22) so I liked seeing some younger people dancing! I know that I put some of their dances in my other top 5's, but I'm going to do one anyway because most of their dances were phenomenal . 1. Jive to Hey Mickey If only there hadn't been that little slip up near the begin...

Hiya guys, What an end to an amazing series of Strictly and wasn't that an amazing ending with a brilliant winner! It's been a long series full of highs, lows and quite a bit of controversy (that I don't want to dwell on because it's meant to be a happy and nostalgic post). There will be a different post on my favourite performances from the series but, based on the final itself, most of the performances could probably have made the top 5 because it was full of spectacular dances from start to finish. I have to start by congratulating the winner's Ore and Joanne because they deserved to win more than most people and epitomises what Strictly is - he started with zero dance training and has literally gone from strength to strength in all styles of dance with the help of Joanne! The two of thaem have this perfect relationship and it shows in their dancing because you can see that they genuinely get on with each other and love learning to dance together. They hav...

Hiya Guys, A little insight into my life as said by many people, 'Wow you have an addictive personality.' Now, that isn't just everyone being nice about how they cannot get enough of me but more saying that I easily become addicted or obsessed with things. Well I mean it isn't as extreme as addiction to drugs or alcohol, of which I do not condone, but things such as music artists or television shows. This post's introduction will link to my Music Friday but for this week I would like to talk about my latest TV obsession which is Call The Midwife. Also, if I seem to be writing slightly more eloquently, it won't last and is merely due to the fact that I have gotten through 4 series of the show in less than two weeks. Set in the East End of London (this makes it more approachable as I know many of the sites), the show is about reasonably posh sisters and nurses who's job is mainly as a midwife to the disadvantaged expecting mothers. I was really ...
