New dates for Essex Girl at VAULT on 7/8 March

I used to feel guilty for sometimes wanting my old self back. A night with Matt to just be us instead of Rory's parents. To do my hair, put on some make up and wear something I don't feel frumpy in. To drink gin and go to pubs and watch some drag queens and stay out late. The weekend before his birthday we honoured that feeling and did all those things (apart from stay out late because sleep deprivation) and it was just what we needed. There is no shame in having a night to let off steam, step away from the nappies and reconnect with each other and yourself. I believe I can be a better mother because of these moments. I also still look pretty fit in a miniskirt. Just saying 🤷‍♀️
