The turning point – risk taker or cautious swimmer
According to my former sales director, a risk taker will happily go on roller coasters, while someone who’s risk averse, won’t. I’m not sure how true that is, but given he had me down as risk averse (probably true as…
300 Picture book challenge: week 13
We’ve been a bit slow on reading this week, mostly down to us being out and about more. We didn’t exchange library books this week either as we’d not got through the previous week. A few visits to charity shops…

Launch of activity led Dino Supersaurus range
I’ve been a long time in getting round to reviewing the February book buddy parcel from Parragon Books, as it’s a bit far removed from what we would usually be reading or using. The latest month was all about an…
Swimming and a new term, new start
Bizarrely, our swimming terms don’t always fit with the school terms so it really confuses me. Especially when they run into each other like last and this term did. We had to miss the first week because we were away…
