In all honesty hitting the ‘grand old age’ of 40 in 2019 made me reassess my life. I loved dance music, clubbing, and festivals, but I also wanted a kid. See our pregnancy announcement here. And now, we have a new raver, born in January 2021. It’s been over a year now since we’ve been…

My January has been pretty quiet, quiet until last night that is. A few months ago I saw a free gig in Preston advertised on Facebook so I signed up for tickets. I have to be honest I didn’t really know what to expect, the gig billed Craig Charles and MistaJam as the headliners. Craig…
