Wroxham Barns For The Summer 2022 Win! I think I must be late to the party here because when I mentioned this to my friends yesterday they all seemed to be well in the know, ticketed up and this isn’t their first time as summer season pass holders to Wroxham Barns! We love a visit all year round and this summer it’s jam packed to the max with all the regular fun as well as injecting some brand new seasonal […]
Delivering On Sustainability! Recent high temperatures have seen us all take a massive gasp as we contemplate, with very visual affects, the footprint we are making upon our planet. We all of us flapped about wildly trying to keep cool as we repeated the same conversations the country over: “We just aren’t used to it”, “This country isn’t geared up for it”, “It’s ok in naturally warmer climates when you’ve got a pool…” and as we take stock that potentially […]
Summer Holidays 2022 – Weeks -1 and 2! Welcome to my summer holiday diary for 2022 which is labelled rather strangely for the first weekly entry on account of the fact Florence broke up 2 weeks ahead of everyone else! We still had school routines for that first fortnight she was off but she still had fun and I had to mention a few of the bits we did as they are a part of our summer!
Get The Rejuvenation You Need As A New Mum Having a baby is hard work and it can take its toll on your body and mind. It is important you take time for yourself so you feel strong enough and healthy enough to tackle the day ahead of you. Sweet Dreams As a new mum it can be incredibly difficult getting the amount of shut eye that you need. It is recommended you get between six and eight hours of […]
Last Day Of School – Summer 2022! Here we are in the blink of an eye and we’ve found ourselves at the end of the year already. Florence’s first at high school, Raffie’s last as a pre-schooler, Jimmy’s only one at primary school as the only Rocknrollerbaby rep and Posie’s last being able to be in cahoots with her brother – What a year which saw me with a high schooler, a primary schooler, a nursery goer and a baby […]
Fun Birthday Celebrations! I am a firm believer in celebrating anything worth celebrating and right at the top of that list is birthdays! Everyone has one so at least once a year, everyone should have the day dedicated to them and make the most of it! I certainly did this year with a weekend away with family and friends to glamping site Suffolk Yurt Holidays (which was so good it needs its own post – coming soon) and I was […]
Suneez Sunglasses! We’ve been trialling out Suneez Sunglasses these past few weeks with the boys and we have to say, what a winner! Hand on heart, we’ve not had sunglasses before that the children’ haven’t either lost or broken with near immediate effect. Lenses scratch, frames break, they take them off and put them down… Now, I’m not saying those things wouldn’t be possible with Suneez but, it would be a darn site harder! They are almost indestructible with their […]
Love Struck Smoothies! When Florence started high school last year we had a few teething issues when it came to making sure she’d had breakfast. The new early routine, coupled with the fact she’s like me and doesn’t feel hungry first thing, meant she very often went off to school without having anything to eat and it worried me. Eventually we got into a groove of giving her a little pocket money so that she could buy a pastry or […]
The Railway Children Return! The story told for over a hundred years was turned into a movie in 1970 and loved by generations of children, including me! I must have watched it when it was around 20 years old, having been read the book first, and I loved it. Later I took my own children to see the West End version on stage which was as terrific as the film and performed so beautifully with awe inspiring staging and now, […]
How To Clean Your Refrigerator Let’s face it, when you have a busy family life it’s far too easy to let your refrigerator run riot. With piles of food never to be eaten, a total lack of organisation and likely a few food items that are long past their best before, your family fridge will certainly have seen better days. Fortunately you don’t have to go through the havoc of a chaotic refrigerator for much longer, as this guide contains […]
