Tomorrow night at 9pm I'll be doing my first Facebook Live set! 45 mins of a bit of everything; my original songs, some covers, some funny songs, some sad, some anthems, some singalongs, maybe even a spontaneous request or two...

Pop over to the Eats'n'Beats Facebook page on Saturday at 9pm and join me in my fairy-lit mini music room for a special one-off show 🎶😊🎵

DM @eatsnbeatscafe to donate and help feed me, Nick & @addythemaltipoopoo 🐾💕

It's Addy's Gotcha Day! A whole year of adorable silliness & love from the fluffiest little ginger whirlwind in town. Thanks to the amazing @ktb_canine_photography for this sweet matchy-matchy photo yesterday. Will share the beautiful pics from Addy's shoot on her own Insta @addythemaltipoopoo. Yes, I know, we love her a bit too much ❤️🧡❤️

Did it.

Thank you to all my amazing friends and family who came to my first ever solo originals gig. I was so thrilled to see you all there as my nerves were through the roof. Biggest thanks to Annie for inviting me to do @softlysoftlyuk alongside the other incredible acts @annesumnersongs @jenny.hallmusic and @mgboultermusic. Enjoying some wine and puppy cuddles now.

It's never too late to take a risk and to be brave. I didn't think of myself as a good songwriter. But recently, I've stopped being so unkind to myself and I'm learning to shrug off the mean inner voices.

Only a few hours left to get on the super-exclusive list for tomorrow's @softlysoftlyuk gig at 3pm-5pm. There are just a tiny handful of spaces left. If you'd like to witness my debut(!) solo gig of my own original (non-comedy) songs including two written in the past fortnight, quickly email softlydoesit@googlemail.com to sneak in last minute! 3 other excellent acts on the bill too. It's not streamed or recorded so it's a unique & beautifully intimate way to welcome in the springtime 😊🌱🌸🌿🌼☘️🌷

Been meaning to do this for nearly a year after Ni

Been meaning to do this for nearly a year after Nick originally suggested it, but finally managed to paint this picture of Nick's dad and his animals in time for his birthday today. I call it "Ged & Familiars". Can't believe I actually finished something! I've only ever painted 3 pictures in my adult life, but I find it so calming and therapeutic, I'm determined to do more, especially with oils. Genuinely no idea what I'm doing but I'm proud of how this one turned out, so this is purely me shamelessly showing off and bolstering my confidence to attempt more. I recommend sticking music on and getting messy with oil paints even if you only have cheap, rubbish brushes like me - good for the head! 🖼️🎨😊

1 today! Here's a photo from Addy's first week at home at the beginning of April. Cutest little whirlwind that ever was and wonderful, silly, sweetest joy-bringer amidst the pandemic pandemonium. Happy First Birthday Adelaide Parkin and Happy Birthday to her gorgeous sisters @roxy_the_red_maltipoo and @dorathemaltipoo too ❤️💛

Addy ate her birthday hat. 🥳😂🐶🎉

Broccoli is Addy's favourite toy. She chose him herself. He's crinkly, furry and he squeaks. He's got it all AND he's always smiling. Addy LOVES Broccoli. But just now, totally out of the blue, Addy did unexpected surgery on his right leg. IS THIS HER WAY OF TELLING US SHE KNOWS ABOUT HER RIGHT LEG SURGERY ON THURSDAY? 😯😯😯
