We drove the whole way through, only stopping for fuel & snacks. It’s something I can honestly say I didn’t expect. The sea just...

Things my mother assumes I know
Mould/Mold. Mould on walls. There’s different types, but I had it due to bad air circulation, as I never had my vents open. Also, it didn’t help I never had my heating on, and the cold from the outside wall hitting my bedroom wall just made it worse. So here’s some tips I’ve learnt the hard way: 1. Bleach any mould you already have. There’s lots of other...
