So the day finally arrived for our little mini adventure. Woman flu hit me hard last night and I got zero sleep, coupled with the clocks going back an hour … well, suffice to say, it wasn’t a pretty sight this morning. The plan was to head off at 7am but I was, […]

Review: Canvas Holidays
You may, just MAY have noticed that I went on a trip to France recently with a lovely group of bloggers, courtesy of Canvas Holidays … (check out the #CanvasBloggers hashtag to see all of our tweets and photos.) When I was first asked by Canvas Holidays to review their camping site, Camping […]

Welcome to week 2 of “#VlogChallenge.” If you’ve wandered on over here and wondering what all this is about, you can read all about “Vlog Challenge” here. This week’s theme is … How you interpret this is entirely up to you so get creative! Vlog. Upload. Share. Here’s my contribution: […]
#UNMUTEUK: Make Your Voice Heard
I love my little corner of the internet (ie. my blog.) It gives me an opportunity to write about whatever I please. A lot of it is trivial, inane stuff. Or things that make me happy. Or things that annoy me. But I have that freedom to say what I like. That doesn’t […]
The One With The Rollercoaster
So I’ve just come back from a press trip with Canvas Holidays to Berny Riveriere in France and I’ll be blogging about that when I come back from my holiday (did I mention I’m off to Fuerteventura tomorrow?!) … but in the meantime I just couldn’t resist putting this piece of footage […]

Those in the blogging community will know that this weekend is BritMums Live or, as I like to call it, a weekend away from the kids. As usual, I’m late to the party and have totally missed the Linky and it’s now closed, but hey, I thought I’d do an intro anyway. […]
The Gallery: Breathe
So last night, top mum that I am, I took Dexter to Rochester for a special tea. I say special … he’d be grateful for a McDonalds. Bloody philistine. Anyway, we went to Rochester because that’s where my eldest works now he’s home from Uni for the summer and we thought we […]
Father’s Day … Loving Twice As Hard
Yesterday was Father’s Day and I, for one, am glad it’s over. I normally feel the same on other ‘special’ days … like Mother’s Day and my late Mum’s birthday. These days are designed to celebrate but for those of us who have experienced loss, in whatever form, they are only designed […]
Camp Bestival 2014
I mentioned a while ago I was going to Camp Bestival and if I’m honest, I’ve not given it much thought since then. You know what life is like. I’ve been before, I kinda know what to expect and because whenever I think about camping I think about … actual camping sometimes […]
Things I’m Awesome At
I’m a huge fan of making sure we (particularly as women) are kind to ourselves. I hear all too often friends say, “Oh I’m rubbish at that,” or “I can’t do it.” WELL I SAY NO MORE! Let’s start talking about the things we CAN do and especially the things we’re […]
