I’ve been meaning to take N back to another Cushion Concert for ages but it’s never happened. But the I was determined to get there a second time. The Cushion Concerts are held in Oxford at the Jacqueline Du Pre…
I love cake. It’s one of my downfalls, with chocolate, pastries, biscuits…oh just food in general. But cake is something that the whole of our house like. Unlike other foods which the OH will faff over and not eat if…
It feels like ages since I’ve done a Music Exploration post. Or in fact, anything about music, but looking back at my notes, we’ve been listening to quite a lot. Informally as usual, but I’m loving that N is starting…

We’d not managed to get tickets for the Christmas light displays at National Trust’s Waddesdon Manor last year which I was really disappointed about, so I was on the look out for another excuse to visit once it opened again…
