Week in Photos – Butlins, 3000 Brownies, Wellington Boots, OH MY!
A brief week in photos, I must apologise. I am exhausted. A trip to Butlins with 3000 Brownies will do that to a person. (We had great fun, it was a busy weekend, and technically we only actually had 13 of the 3000 to actually look after, and it was Big Girl’s first weekend away […]

Meet Charlie the Parrot, a new member of the family. He is Little Man’s current soft toy of choice, and he cuddles him to sleep at night. The other morning I woke to find him “in my face” literally, left to watch over me while I slept. Enough to make a girl want to turn […]
READ MORE→Friday’s Rant from the Soap Box in MY Living Room!
This week, I would like to write a little note, to two great British establishments… Dear Tax Man (HMRC) Thank you for your letter, reminding us that we had not submitted our on-line tax assessment form.

Little Man also started nursery last September, and it was a big step, and I remember feeling the same with Big Girl too… My boy started school nursery in September. He is […]
READ MORE→I went clothes shopping!
That sounds a bit dramatic, but actually, it is. I have not been clothes shopping, properly (I don’t think socks, underwear and pyjamas count) since I was pregnant with Small Boy, which is now almost 4 years ago. I have had some serious self confidence issues, and also with having gained some weight, have not […]
READ MORE→Week in photos – the tree is down, back to reality….!
So, a new week, back to work, school and normal life, after a very relaxed Christmas. The Christmas tree came down, today, only a week late, I know, but better than last year, when we were three weeks, late. I actually feel quite glad, normally I hate taking the decorations down, the house feels so […]
