My big thanks this blog has been adapted from anecdotes or just gibberish I wrote in a night time, half asleep on a phone so likely makes little sense in its original form and things like links are hard to do, thankfully my lovely friend and confidant Simon is Incredibly intelligent and offered to help make it readable and navigable so big thanks to my handsome friend Simon for being the best editor I could ever want, and also for nice cuddles when we get the chance
