There are times, believe it or not, where we actually don’t want to. You might have 3 heads. You could have terrible B.O, or just spinach between your teeth. All this and yet somehow we always find ourselves saying yes, when what we actually mean is no.

Fear not girls, I’ve compiled a list of believable excuses that will get you out of this very situation. They took quite a while to think of. I’m here to look after you.

I’d love to hear your contributions in the comments, they make me very happy.

Keep fighting the good fight.

I’m still alive you’ll be pleased to hear… unless you’re a hater of course ;) Turning 30 has actually been quite empowering and nowhere near as bad as I feared.

I’ve shared some of the wonderful, weird and funny things you experience when 30. I’ve had the whole of just over a week, so I’m experienced in the subject as you can tell!

I’d love to hear your thoughts too. That’s what the comments are for peeps.

Big hugs and much love.

Enjoy.

You have to stand in this knowledge for 90 minutes before reaching the office and being able to turn it back around. You then say hi really enthusiastically to somebody that you realise half way through you don’t know. This is my life.
