When I was 14 years old, I was given flowers on Valentine’s Day and they were beautiful. For a few days, I existed in a bit of a spin wondering who this secret admirer could be. It turned out later that the flowers were from my stepdad, a clever move...

Beat the Couch season is upon us and I’ve been busy rounding up a gang of beginners who are ready to start running either the first time, or the first time in a long time! As usual, we’ve started to gather a very eclectic list with people as young a...

A few days ago Chloe turned 12 and I officially braced myself for the hormonal hurricane of teenage years. So far, she’s mainly a chilled little soul. I’m trying to just enjoy it and keep my fingers crossed that she doesn’t start hating me in 362 day...

I’ve only just recovered from Hallowe’en candy and here comes Christmas racing towards us with all its mulled wine and boxes of Quality Street chocolates. It’s my absolute favourite time of year. I’ve never grown out of Christmas magic — but I’m in d...

There is nothing like making 21 unicorn pancakes at midnight to remind you that you don’t quite have it all together. Needless to say, there I was — flipping these magical beasts into crispy perfection because I’d forgotten I’d promised Chloe that sh...

As a boy, he moved from Algeria to France with his family and attended ?a private school that he dropped out of at age 15. He still maintains that he does not know a word of English, as he is “not smart enough for that”. Some years go by and Jean-...
