Wroxham Barns – Christmas 2023! I always do say how wonderful I think Wroxham Barns is, and for their 2023 Christmas Experience offering my opinion is firmly cemented. They go ALL OUT, at ALL times of the year, but Christmas is something else! Raffie couldn’t decide at Halloween if he prefers spooky season or festive on the farm, “they’re both TOO good!” he said, but now that we’re steam rollering to Christmas, with just one month to go, having visited […]
Foodies Festival 2023! Earlham Park – Norwich! It’s been a decade since I worked with The Foodies Festival for the first time, back in 2013 I was invited to come as their guest and sample the delights they had on offer in Battersea Park and I have, since then, worked with them many times. However, this year is the first year I’ve collaborated with them in my home city of Norwich and this weekend coming is the weekend that is […]
Pettitts Animal Adventure Park – Norfolk! I remember visiting (and enjoying) Pettitts Animal Adventure Park as a child myself and then absolutely year’s ago taking Florence with a new born Jimmy for their first and only trip there. I’m not sure why we never went back but for whatever reason it simply wasn’t on my radar and whenever people have mentioned it the idea hasn’t stuck. Until now… Friends were going this week and Posie and I joined them in […]
Funderworld Norwich 2023! We had THE MOST tremendous time at Funderworld Norwich over the weekend! The travelling theme park is here in Norfolk only until the 4th of June 2023 so you’ll have to be quick if you don’t want to miss the thrills at the Norfolk Showground! I loved the way it’s been set up in a giant circle and felt totally safe letting my bigger two (13 and 11) to go off together for a bit. That way […]
Funderworld Norwich! The world’s most portable theme park has exploded onto Norwich soil with its current residence being the Norfolk Showground. There until the 4th of June 2023 there’s plenty of time to embrace your crazy mouse, take your life into your own hands and ride the Sky Swing, or to take on your mates on the Dogems! From the team who brought Winter Wonderland to the East last Christmas, we have been gifted a brand new fairground of thrill […]
Wroxham Barns – The Christmas Experience 2022! Wroxham Barns is a changed creature since the days when I would take my baby Florence. Back then, more than 12 years ago when we first adventured there, it was a lovely little farm with a small play area, soft play and there were some rides you could pay extra for. The farm was always a great value afternoon out, but we rarely ventured to the ride area as when you have to […]
October 2022 At Pensthorpe! We love ALL the seasons at Pensthorpe. The gardens change and move and grow. They become different colours and different places yet one thing is always the same, it’s a calm and beautiful place to be. I like each season for different reasons and have different places I like to walk depending on the weather and at Halloween half term, a time we have always been very fond of a visit in particular, my favourite way […]
Duxford Air Show! I wrote about the Duxford Airshows ahead of the events this year and after we tried one out for ourselves I posted to my Instagram page but I realised I didn’t ever put anything post visit on the blog and we had such a great time I wanted to show you! Check out my Insta reel here: It was such a great day out which we all enjoyed and we went en masse from age 1 to […]
Wroxham Barns Pumpkin Festival 2022! If you’ve not been to Wroxham Barns over Halloween half term then you don’t know what you’re missing! It’s a fantastic school holiday day out with all the fun of the farm and fairground rides (which are always included in the price of your ticket – all incl, that’s what we like) but with added extras just for the season and this year is set to be bigger and better than ever before with their […]
Roarr! For The Holidays! It was Raffie’s 5th birthday over the weekend and for another year running he wanted to go to Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure to celebrate. I think it really is his most favourite place in the world and it doesn’t matter how many times we go, he always wants to see the Dippy Show, in the theatre, over anything else. This visit he also got to go and meet and greet with Dippy which was the icing on […]
