I’ve been trying to look out for some more summery t shirts, and Sainsbury’s came to the rescue as usual the other week. I’m always in there checking their boyswear out. Add to that their regular 25% off Tu clothing, and I was pleased to spot a couple of t shirts that would be perfect […] Read more…
I’ve had a stash of fabric paints for ages, and meant to get round to decorating some bags and tops, but needless to say we never got round to it. But recently buytshirtsonline.co.uk sent us a t-shirt painting kit to let N have a go at designing his own t shirt, so we couldn’t put it […] Read more…

Bright yellow, with either one or two eyes, Minions were catapulted into the spotlight by the ‘Despicable Me’ film franchise, back in 2010. While N hasn’t watched many films (or at least films all the way through), he has managed to sit through Despicable Me and enjoy it! The Minions seem to be loved by […] Read more…
As with the last few weeks I’ve been slacking a bit. I’m frantically trying to finish the mammoth book I started reading (it’s hard going and I’m a tad bored with it), as well as catch up with my crochet. I usually snap away when I go for a walk on work lunchtimes, but haven’t […] Read more…
In N’s 4 years, we’ve been to quite a few birthday parties. Not as many as some people (a friend’s daughter had 17 to go to in January alone!), but plenty enough, and a variety of types of party. So far for N, we’ve tended to opt for just a birthday tea at home, the […] Read more…
