It’s day 9 of Blogtober, and today, it’s all about Post Week. Today’s prompt was “Invitations or letters”. I’m inviting you to visit Manchester… My Manchester I’m a Manchester girl, born and bred Half this city’s Blue, the other half’s Red Uni’s galore, to expand your mind Student bars all over – the best you…
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…
Today is day 7 of Blogtober, and the theme is Gross Motor Skills in honour of Dyspraxia Awareness Week. Honestly, I don’t really know enough about Dyspraxia to write a blog post on it, so instead, I have chose my own “G” Theme…. Growing out my grey hair! I blogged a couple of weeks ago…

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…
October is breast cancer awareness month, so the Blogtober prompt for day 2 is “boobs”. The word itself makes me laugh a little. Mostly with embarrassment. I am the owner of a pair of very small boobs – FACT! My boobs aren’t something I spend a great deal of time thinking about these days. I…
When I heard about Blogtober, I knew I had to join in. The idea is: Mandi over at Big Family Chaos has put together a list of daily prompts. I write a blog post each day, based on that day’s prompt. (The full list is at the bottom of this post). Today’s prompts were, “All…
GirlsGospel has been online since 28th June 2018. That’s just over 3 months (or 14 weeks if you want to be precise). I’ve been blogging for much longer though, so already had an idea of how I could earn money from a new blog. My own blogging journey started in 2009, when I created a…
