We are moving. Moving house. Sometimes I have to say it out loud to actually believe it because it feels like such a strange thing to be doing. We’ve lived in our little flat for 8 years now and it’s home… Most people move because they are upgrading. Borrowing a little more money from the bank and then getting somewhere bigger as their families grow. That’s what we thought we’d be able to do one day in the future when […]

I love the summer with endless days, balmy evenings and festival fashion in abundance but I’m not one of those who gets down about the weather when the nights start drawing in. Quite the opposite actually as I rather love to get my thick black tights and boots out for the colder months. My autumn and winter fashion tends to be the tights and boots matched with some form of mini dress or jumper dress. It’s what I feel comfortable […]

Well, that’s it, the October half term holiday is over and we’re well and truly back to school counting down the days until Christmas! While I love the build up to the festive period I am also very aware, this year, that it will be our last few weeks living in our capital city. After almost a decade of London life it’s back to Norfolk we go come January! Although the children will return to school in London after the […]

This afternoon I got a sneaky peek at the upcoming spring/summer offerings from Mothercare. And, more importantly, a first look at their glorious Little Bird By Jools range! Every season Jools Oliver’s designs leave me in a tizzy wondering which items to buy (most) and which items I reluctantly have to leave so that my purse strings don’t entirely disappear! First up I’m going to show you my fave pieces for Spring/Summer 2016 from Little Bird, because, well, I just can’t wait! […]

I’d kept hearing about Magformers on social media but had no idea what, exactly, they were. I had in my mind some sort of transformers type robot, I guess because the name is similar, and I hadn’t delved too much further until my Mum said that Jimmy had been playing with some at a play group and loved them. She told me, after she’d been looking after him for the day, that he’d made an absolute beeline for these bricks […]

This Halloween half term we spent half of it in Norfolk visiting my Mum. We’re soon to be moving back to the county from London and because we’re used to having a plethora of activities to do in the capital, we are starting think about the things we will be able to do when we move. We decided that we would buy three or four annual passes to local attractions and spent three days this holiday doing a reccy of […]

As many of you who read this blog regularly will know, the Rocknrollerbabies are on the move to Norfolk. I personally have been in London for nearly a decade, Jonny longer than that and both children were born here so it’s a big wrench for us to leave even if technically we are ‘going home’! Jonny and I were both born in and grew up in Norwich so a move back to the land of flat is not totally alien […]

On Wednesday of last week we tried desperately hard to get into town for some events in central London but we were foiled at every turn. We’d rushed out very early to get there on time but when we got to the tube the central line was down and all around us people were flooding out of the station like ants on a mission. We tried to get a bus to no avail. We asked in taxi ranks how long […]

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Father Christmas really could pay you a visit? I mean, obviously we all know he’s REAL, but he couldn’t possibly cover the whole of Christmas for every one of us now could he?! He can, however, cover it for one lucky reader of Rocknrollerbaby, ModernMummy, FamilyFourFun and Mummy Endeavours… Yes, that’s right, myself and three other super bloggers are playing #SantasLittleHelpers and we’re going to give YOU the chance to #WinChristmas! How fabulous is […]
