Purpose and Form/Sheffield By The Seaside


Hello strangers

Sorry I haven’t been around these parts lately, I can’t believe it’s been 2 weeks since my last post! If I’m honest not a great deal has happened during my short absence, I have been excitedly watching the final episodes of Breaking Bad, have started having a big clear out of my home ready for decorating, oh and I finally feel like a proper grown up as I have got myself my very first washing line (with the very kind aid of my grandparents) which I am strangely chuffed with.  

Right big announcement time, of sorts anyway, during my time away I have also been working on my new blog, Purpose and Form, which I will be running alongside afternibbin. (not instead of, this isn’t a goodbye post my dears).

Purpose and Form will be a space where I will be sharing the things that inspire me, whether that is art, design, interiors, architecture or fashion. I decided to start Purpose and Form and not just share the things that inspire me on here instead as it just doesn’t feel right on here, afternibbin. is my personal blog about my home and garden, where I share my own photos, I want to keep it personal, fun and a little bit rough around the edges. Purpose and Form will be going in a slightly different direction and I am so very excited about it.

Anyhoo, my very first post on Purpose and Form is up today if you fancy a nosey. Now I’ve got a bit of the legwork out of the way I will be back here more regularly I promise.

So now that's out of the way I thought I'd share with you a few photos I took in Sheffield when they had a Sheffield by the Seaside weekend a few weeks ago.

The day would have been a lot better had it not been freezing cold and drizzling all day. There weren't many people out braving it, a few hardy families were pottering about in the sandpit with their cagoules on but that was about it. Me and Allsy didn't mind though, we had a nice time wandering around with a bag full of freshly cooked doughnuts, pretending we were walking down Brighton Pier. It took a lot of pretending.

  1. I've bookmarks and followed your new blog, it makes sense to split ideas up from personal to other. Mine is just a big mix but I think it works.

    Hold the phone, seaside in Sheffield, that's a pretty cool idea I must say. Was it just a one time thing?

    1. Yours most definitely works my friend! How my life is and what I daydream about are two very different things at the moment though so am happy I've split them up, it seems neater to me somehow, hopefully one day I'll have them together.

      Cool idea yes. In practice it was a bit of a let down. Could have done with some sunshine really to get the good folks of Sheffield out.
