Last Thursday I had the most amazing night….and Thursday’s I’m normally dead. For some nightmare reason I teach non stop on a Thursday, literally, I’m in the same room with zero break and just lesson after lesson till late at night. It’s blooming difficult but, well, whatever.

The blog kinda went on the back burner for a whilst as I was sorting shizzle out here. I’m not sure whether to do 10 different mini entries or one big fook off long one. Anyways, lets just crack on, type, and see where this post ends up. In a nutshell I like Poland ( … Continue reading »
