I mentioned the other week that my brother and I had done a car boot sale. Neither of us had done one for a while, although I do occasionally drop in for a bit of a nosy round in case I spot books or games for N. But we needed to start clearing out our […] Read more…
I’ve spoken numerous times about trying to get motivated to lose my baby weight plus some, and to be honest it’s a bit hit and miss. It seems to go really well for a bit, then I see something nice to eat and eat it and more. I’ve tried slim fast type of things, getting […] Read more…
The summer holidays obviously don’t mean a lot to us yet. They will do next year before N starts school, but until then, we’ll be carrying on pretty much as normal. N’s nursery school has finished for the end of the school year, but those two days over the summer holidays, he’ll now be at […] Read more…
One of the best things about beautiful weather is being able to take stunning photos. This weekend’s definitely had some great weather, and there’s been a lot of photo opportunities amongst the weekend’s outdoor fun.

N’s had a busy day at nursery today, what with sports day, followed by a party lunch in celebration of the leavers going up to school in September. Then in the afternoon they had a splashfest in one of the nursery children’s paddling pools. He would have been in his element so I’m hoping there […] Read more…
It seems ages ago since we had our annual charity clay shoot at the farm. Turns out it was 2 weeks ago, and I’m a tad behind writing it up so no wonder it feels like ages ago. It’s now become an annual event as we’ve been doing it for a while. It’s a great […] Read more…
We’re rocking and rolling onto month 4 of my Musical Exploration with Children linky. The linky live each month on the 15th, and it’s open until the end of the same month. If you want a reminder let me know and I’ll try and prompt a few days before it goes live. Here’s last month’s linky if you […] Read more…
