If you had of asked me a few years ago whether I’d have been making and sharing videos on social media, I’d of said ‘get outta here! That’s for kids’. We’ll guess what, I now make videos and share them on social media with my audience, but why do I do it. As a creative,…
Flexible jobs or part time jobs are really difficult to come by, but rather ironically around half of UK employees work flexibly or part time. Even I know that something isn’t quite right there, what do you think? I think there are lots of challenges here for employers in the UK to deal with, but…
A few weeks back we went to Smyth’s Toys to find out all about the new doll collection from the Baby Annabell range. One of the dolls really caught my daughter’s eye, and she was very lucky to receive the Baby Annabell Learns To Walk doll to review a few weeks later. Her eyes lit…

I think that families rock, and that they have so many amazing talents that they are hiding in their homes that these need to be shared with the outside world. Come on Mum’s and Dad’s lets not keep all that entertainment to ourselves, it’s time to shout about it and nPower, with the help of…
Before I met my husband, he had a motorbike. He was very proud of his motorbike, and I always got a sense that his Honda Blackbird was the other lady in his life. The Blackbird did stay in our lives for awhile, but when we had children it seemed a little impractical for us to…
We have literally got the best toy for any Bing fans out there to share with you today. Both my daughters really enjoy Bing on CBeebies, and I’m pretty sure they aren’t the only ones. For anyone not in the know Bing Bunny, and his friends are curious preschoolers learning all about the world around…
When you are trying to book a city break for a girlie weekend, and you live in different parts of the country, things can get a little complicated. I was planning a trip with a friend of mine who lives in London, and there was definitely a point where we looked like we might not…
We literally had a smashing time when we went to Pizza Express recently to try out their new autumn menu and celebrate Daddy’s birthday. Not one, but 2 glasses hit the deck as one slipped out of my daughter’s hand at the beginning of the meal and Daddy took one off the table with his…

I thought you might appreciate an update on my slimming world journey, and why I think slimming world seems to be working for me. I joined a slimming world group a month a go, and trust me when I say I was sceptical at first. Now necessarily about the eating plan, as I’ve used that…

A lot of the children’s reviews that we feature on the blog are often aimed at my older daughter, but every now and again something comes along that will suit our Little Pudding down to the ground. She’s 2 1/2 years old, and I knew she would love to get her little hands on the…
Since I started blogging I’ve read many people’s stories about the ups and downs in their life, but none has stayed with me more than Ben Brooks-Dutton. His story is so incredibly sad, and what is even more upsetting, is it was completely avoidable. In 2012, Ben’s wife was killed by an elderly driver, in…
