You'd think the details would be permanently etched in my mind. I was sixteen when we met, we dated for six years, we even moved in together. Shouldn't more have... Continue Reading →
Crawling out of bed and heading to the newsagent at 6.30am this morning was a struggle with the reality of daylight savings kicking in.
