Surviving Winter – I think it is time that I stop being in denial and admit that winter is, indeed, coming. I’m sat writing this with a cardigan on, which is a pretty big deal for me – so I think I have to accept that the cold weather is well and truly on its way! I am sure by now most of you know I hate the cold weather and wish for it to be summer every day, however that just won’t happen so now is the time to start thinking survival tactics. [Read more…]

How To Maintain a Good House
When it comes to looking after our homes, most of us tend to stop at general cleanliness and housework. Although a tidy house is great, this isn’t always enough to ensure that our homes are well enough looked after – here are some tips on how to maintain a good house.
3 Easy Ways To Save Money
Now that I have my own flat (did I mention that already? haha) my living costs have gone up. Most this means less takeaways and Ubers, but I do also need to look at ways to save money and spend less. This is mostly because I want to be able to buy pretty things for the house without having to worry too much – Yes, I have turned into one of those people!
Using Online Vouchers
If you are shopping online, make sure you always look for a voucher code before you do. These codes can sometimes only be very small savings (free postage for example) but sometimes you’re able to use more than one at a time, which can really help when it comes to saving some cash. I often find codes just by giving it a quick Google before I go through checkout online, however Hot Deals UK is a really good site for looking at what is available and how you can make sure you save as much money on your online shop as possible. Websites such as DealsPlanet are great for this too!
Get Cashback
This is a habit that I really need to get better at! You can get cashback on so many websites online, and it really is so simple that I kick myself every time I forget. Although, when I signed up to my new broadband, I did get £70 cash back, so I don’t forget all the time. Usually it is just a couple of percent that you get back, however if it is something you were going to buy anyway, why wouldn’t you? Then when you have built up a larger amount you can have the money put in your account. Sounds great doesn’t it?
Use A Savings App
I actually use Plum, but I know there are a few out there. Basically, I give the app access to my bank account and every few days it takes money out of my bank into their savings account. I can set how much of an aggressive saver I want it to be, and it looks at my balance before deciding how much to take out. You can withdraw back to your bank at anytime, and it usually goes back in the same day. I try to save up £100 at a time and then withdraw that in bulk to put in my actual savings account. I have been using it for around a year and have to say, I find it really useful!
Bonus Tip – Be Sensible
Although this isn’t a savings tip, it is important to look into any times that you want to borrow money. I am sure at one point or another, we have all borrowed money for something. There are different ways to borrow money and it’s important to look into the route you choose and make sure it’s the best one for you. I have recently been introduced to Cash Lady which looks like a fab option for those needing money fast. I like that they have everything easy to read and find, so it doesn’t feel like they’re tricking you into anything!

The Importance of Good Relationships
the couple kind. Whatever genders those may be made up of, relationships tend
to be the romantic type that come to our mind first. And that is fine, these
are great and can be a really valid and great part of your life. However, what
I would say is that for me, all sorts of relationships in my life are essential
and make me happy – including friendships and family
communication is the key to maintaining these. You will probably have seen on
my social media recently that my sister had a baby a few weeks ago and she is magnificent.
However, they live a few hours away so for me the likes of Whatsapp have been
great – we video call, swap photos etc and its been really lovely to get to
know baby Dorothy in this way and I hope it continues. So, if you’re someone
looking for a relationship of the romantic kind, don’t just think that joining
a Derbyshire dating site
is enough, you need to make sure you communicate and stay in touch, this really
will help any relationship flourish and grow.
otherwise – it’s important to meet the right type of people. It is all well and
good browsing things such as dating
sites in Derbyshire but you need to make sure you find someone on your
wavelength. Enjoying spending time with people you care about is really
important, so its important to invest what you can into making this happen. Of
course you won’t always know straight away that this person can give you what
you want, but spending time getting to know someone and ensuring you get on
well is pretty much essential.
probably want to spend more time with them. Whether this is for senior dating, mates dates or
simply a friend at work you will find yourself spending more time in their
company. That is why it is important that you choose to spend your time with people
who hep you grow rather than holding you back. In general my closest friends
and family are my biggest cheerleaders and supporters and that is something
that I wouldn’t ever want to be without. There is little good being in any type
of relationship where people hold you back or you’re frightened to tell them
about achievements due to fear of upsetting them.
your side through thick and thin, supporting you all the way and you really won’t
go far wrong! Of course, it works both ways and you should be sure to cheerlead
for the people in your life too!
