Hi all, I have been away for so so long.
So in the past 2 years since I have posted I have successfully completed a masters in Psychology.
It was the hardest two years ever managing working part time as an SEN teaching assistant and studying.
I studied at University of Westminster at the School of Life Sciences at Cavendish campus in Fitzrovia.

It has been so long since I have posted.
Just a heads up that I have now relocated back to vibrant London from Manchester. I have well and truly settled back in. Now studying Psychology I have more free time to blog. But I question what, where, how and when?

I bring to you Fink's latest video for their second single 'Shakespeare'. A Heartwarming song the video reflects that.
This track comes from their latest album 'Hard Believer', it is hypnotic, redemptive and highly emotive- you can really hear and feel the well written acoustic rock songs. It includes remixes from Zac Rae, Shelter Point, and Fin's very own from Nachbarn39Dub.
