Merry Christmas!



We've reached the end of 2016 and my goodness, how quickly did that fly?!

So much can happen in the space of a year, and it's safe to say there was A LOT going on for me, both professionally and personally.

The office is closed for  10 days over the Christmas period, I think everyone is ready for the break. It's also a great time to make excuses to eat and drink everything in sight!

I've been pretty ill over the past week which meant that I had time off and was unable to attend my work Christmas party, so I'm looking forward to staying at home and trying to nurse myself better.

I would like to say the Christmas period is going to be relaxing for me, but with the first child of the Rowland siblings due to be born between Boxing Day and New Years Eve (not mine, my brother's!) it's going to be eventful but also joyful.

I hope everyone enjoys their time off and looks positively into the new year.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

Year 2!




It's official, I am now in my second year of training, where on earth has the time gone?

Am I supposed to know what I'm doing and come across as really experienced to our other Trainee? Who knows! But I'm rolling with it.

On Monday I will be starting my third seat in the Clinical Negligence department. Different to family law but still a lot of emotion. I'm ready to try something new and see how this area works.

The count down to qualification begins, it is going to go super quick which is rather exciting and terrifying at the same time. But for now, lets enjoy the countdown to Christmas. We have lots of festivities planned at our firm, we like to keep our spirits high!

The Christmas tree is already on display and no doubt the big day will come in a flash.

Enjoy your weekend!
