Enjoying the evening sun on the farm
I think we’re getting to the end of the amazing weather before the rain turns up in readiness for the bank holiday weekend, but we managed to get quite a bit of outdoor time at the weekend. N doesn’t seem…
Adventures
Our adventures out and about in the UK, on the farm and further afield.
A walk in the woods – searching for bluebells
All over blogs and social media I’ve been seeing glorious bluebell woods photos, of children romping through the flowers, or posing beautifully. After not doing any last year, I decided that we’d try to find some this year. Now, you’d…

What are the holiday options for going away with children? Different accommodation types, with a focus on Northern Ireland
Jousting at Blenheim Palace

Following the Gruffalo trail at Salcey Forest
Ever since I noticed that there were going to be Gruffalo trails in forests around the UK, I knew we’d have to go on one. We missed the Stick Man trails, and N does love Julia Donaldson books, and The…

Exploring sculptures at Compton Verney
It’s been almost a week since we went to Compton Verney for a day out, but I’ve only just got round to sorting through all the photos I took. I’d never been to Compton Verney and always meant to given…
