I was asked to write an article for Tesco Living to talk about what fun activities and crafts you and your children could do on Christmas Eve. I didn’t think “Eat Quality Street all day” would go down too well, so I managed to think of a few more. You can […]

‘What I Love About My Body’ – Tesco Living Article
I was recently asked to contribute to Tesco Living’s new look website and talk about ‘What I love about my body.’ You’d think that would be a tricky article to write. You’re not wrong. I sat and looked at my laptop for ages and, probably for the first time ever, gave some […]
Tesco Magazine: Legoland Windsor Resort
(photo credit: Tesco Magazine) I haven’t been to a theme park since an embarrassing episode at Margate’s Dreamland amusement park in 1982. My long, white skirt got caught in the looping Mary Rose boat ride and I showed more than I had intended to. Thankfully, amusement parks have changed since then. My eight-year-old Dexter and […]

The day I popped my public speaking cherry

I had been asked to speak at BritMums Live, the parenting blogging conference, as part of a discussion panel, which included such literary luminaries as Zoe Williams (Guardian journalist,) Liz Fraser (TV Parenting expert and author,) and Jennie Bristow, (author/blogger/columnist.) And me. Our topic […]

Camp Bestival 2012
Last year I was lucky enough to attend Camp Bestival on behalf of Littlestuff. You can read my highly entertaining and modest post HERE. We had an absolute riot. Not literally … I was very (mostly) well behaved, but it certainly was the highlight of 2011 for my family and I. Today, I’m pleased to […]
Tesco Magazine: Christmas Television Picks 2011
(Photo credit: Tescos Magazine) I’m a bona fide child of the 70s and growing up with only three TV channels meant Christmas television was a little limited. I had to choose between The Mike Yarwood Show, Only Fools & Horses, Top of the Pops and, unfortunately, the occasional episode of Val Doonican. I’m glad things have moved on […]
The New BritMums Live Speaker!
I’ve been blogging since July 2010. Six months after WitWitWoo was born, I dipped my toes into the proverbial social media water and joined Twitter. I say joined … like most people, I’d actually joined two years earlier but just never used it. (“Twitter? Wassat?”) I’ve learnt a lot on the way … (I refuse […]
