It’s day 8 of Blogtober. It is #LibrariesWeek, therefore today’s prompt is “hearing them read…” Rather than talking about reading, specifically; I’m taking today as an opportunity to discuss the other things our local library offers. We live in Salford, and our local library is in Swinton. As well as the books you’d expect to find, Swinton…
Category: Lifestyle
In this category, you’ll find all things lifestyle, fashion, food, personal finance and more.
If you want to read about my thoughts and feelings, you’ll certainly find them here.
You’ll find easy, vegetarian recipes shared in here, as well as plenty of money saving information to help you budget and save successfully.
If you’re a mid 30’s mum, you’re sure to find some fashion content you’ll love in this category too. We’re fans of good quality, low cost clothing at GirlsGospel HQ, so don’t be expecting designer labels or catwalk coverage.
This is also the place to come if you want to read about real life adventures, experiences, thoughts and feelings.
If you’re looking for health content, you’ll find those in here too.
If you’d like to discuss adding a guest post to this category, feel free to contact me. You can drop me an email at girlsgospeluk@gmail.com and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Blogtober Day 5 – A Special Teacher
Today is world teachers day, so of course Blogtober’s prompt of the day is Education. I’m going to share the story of a special teacher, who made a massive difference to my life. Back when I was in year 4, (or 2nd year Juniors), I had a teacher called Mrs Roach. I’d had a lot…
Blogtober Day 4 – poems to my parents
Today is #NationalPoetryDay and the #Blogtober prompt is Ditty. I’ve written a few poems over the years, over on my other blog. The two which spring to mind are the ones I wrote when my parents passed away. I am no poet. I write for me, not for others. It was years before anybody saw the…
Blogtober Day 3 – Our First Date
I don’t talk much about my hubby over here, but maybe it’s time I changed that. When better to start than today – national boyfriend day. (OK, OK… day 3 of Blogtober’s theme is Couples, so that may have twisted my arm, really)! I figured I’d talk about our first date, and the early part…
Blogtober day 2 – I’ve got small boobs and I cannot lie
