Nothing gets me more pumped and excited about work than GREAT UCD community away days.
Been finding myself getting a little bit grumpy about being stuck behind my desk ALL THE TIME. And getting together in person today with fabby people has made me feel all 🤩
So lucky to be in this world

attempted to go shopping on Saturday as I am in desperate need of some new work clothes (because I've lost loads of weight, yay!)
went into 5/6 shops on oxford/regent street and nothing fucking fit. genuinely curious as to why SO many shops insist on stocking only the SMALLEST sizes?!
