Fear and Isolating in Birmingham…

Fear and Isolating in Birmingham…

Well this feels strange. It's the first time in a long time that I've had any inclination to type anything. I feel rusty, in many, many ways. For future reference, we are currently in the third lockdown of the pandemic; I don't mean the royal "we", just, you know, the UK. Everyone is over it [...]

Festive Photography With Viking + Friends

Festive Photography With Viking + Friends

I was lucky enough to be invited to a festive photography masterclass back in November, with Viking. Heading into Dirty Martini in the city centre meant that I was already feeling the Christmas spirit, especially as the German Market had been set-up. Walking up the stairs in the venue, I spotted tables filled with crackers [...]

35 things I’ve learnt in 35 years

If you haven't guessed already, I've just enjoyed my 35th birthday. I just never pictured myself at this age (lolz); I mean, I didn't think I'd die young or anything, but even now when I think about future plans, I peak at about 30. Anyway, it's been an interesting ride so far, and I'd like [...]

So, I was invited to an evening of whiskey (which can also be spelt whisky! I know, who knew? Well, Vicky did actually) tasting. I'm not drinking. "Don't worry! There'll be food, and some of the best company in Brum". I'm there. What food though? Where is it? Can I smell the whiskies instead? It's [...]

Anxiety-friendly Coffee Spots In Brum

You may have read this title and thought, WTF is she banging on about now. Fair enough. However, this probably means that you haven't suffered social anxiety or agoraphobia before (I envy you so bad); that's cool, this post might still give you some ideas in regards to getting your next caffeine fix. I bloody [...]

A Shout Out To Saint Kitchen: Thanks For The Consistently Lovely Coffee + Brunch

I have lived just off St Paul's Square in the JQ for over 4 years now, and there has been a friend on the square, with whom I've become very attached. Saint Kitchen has had a couple of makeovers since I arrived in the area, and has got better and better each year. It now [...]

Spring Cocktails At Tom’s Kitchen Brum and a Fond Farewell…

I was lucky enough to be invited to try the Spring cocktail menu at Tom's Kitchen in The Mailbox in Brum; obviously I said yes immediately, and apologised to my liver and blood sugars in advance. I'm actually writing up this review at the start of being sober for the foreseeable future due to health [...]

A Dreamy Date Night In Don Diego

Snuggled into a little row of shops in Edgbaston, opposite the White Swan Pub, sits Don Diego; a restaurant run by two brothers, serving up fresh homestyle food full of Mediterranean flavour. I visited on a Saturday night with my husband Marv; we were lucky enough to share a table and have a double date [...]

Anxiety No.02: A Week In My Head

So, I thought I’d document what I consider to be a bad week regarding my anxiety. It was actually a recent week, and it’s fresh in my mind, so I feel like you’ll get a thorough account of my thought process, behaviour, and coping mechanisms. I know that I said in my previous anxiety post [...]

profile picture with Rex

Hello and welcome to Hey Its Fay; a blog written by a proud Brummie, autoimmune disease expert, and passionate Christmas enthusiast. I’m a content writer by day, and I consume pasta most nights. This is the place where I’ll be sharing my thoughts, challenges, and highlights from my life, so that I can stay creative.

I live in Birmingham, UK (or Brum), and I adore this city. I get super excited about it’s ever-growing independent scene.  I have a toddler called Rex and he often accompanies me on breakfast, brunch and lunch dates; I tend to save nights out and evening meals in the city, for friends, fam, and my lucky husband. I’m here to share what we’ve all enjoyed so that you can too.

I’m a qualified hypnotherapist and love nothing more than helping others to discover how they can chill out, regularly. Mental health is health, so I’ll be sharing things that people may find helpful too…

Peace, love, and caffeine, Fay x

👋🏼 Happy new year! I’m trying to eat proper breakfasts so far this year…also chives on food = 🍽️📈 x

🚂The Polar Express Birmingham🎄 we all loved it 😊 the experience was really special- the performers/train staff were incredible too. I only want to travel like this now… x
@smarttreesgrotto was absolutely brilliant today. We’ve never been before, but are definitely returning next year! The whole experience was magical- as soon as we arrived we were assigned an Elf (shoutout to Lucy! 💕), then we all boarded a tractor/sleigh, went through the trees and knocked on the door to go and meet Santa. Elves, snow, and real reindeer were everywhere and so lovely. There were food trucks, a huge play area with a zip wire, festive little shops, and of course; loads of trees to choose from. A ticket got you entry to smart trees for the day, and an allocated slot to meet Santa. Would really recommend- so festive! Loved it 🎄 anyone got any more Midlands-based Christmas recommendations, for families? x
🎈3 years of incredible nails💅🏻and so many compliments that I can’t take credit for (I just turn up with stiff hands and lots to talk about 😂) there’s no one better 💕
