August Favourites

Hi there, how is August treating you? I’m liking it a lot better than July so far, mostly because it’s been cooler. But enough about me, lets move on.  This month I’ve been sent a few nice things to try, and I’ve also splashed out on some nice things myself, so, today is my monthly round-up

This Week I….

Hello! How is it Sunday already? Doesn’t time just fly by? I hope you have a nice day planned. We had intended to do a Boot Fair this morning, but the BBC weather app promised us it was DEFINITELY going to rain ALL DAY today. So instead we decided to drink lots of rum last

This Week I……

Hello! I hope you’re all having jolly Sundays so far? I’ll be honest, my Sunday is slightly marred by the horrible headache and hangover anxiety that I have inflicted on myself by consuming a rather ill-advised amount of wine last night. However, I have nothing much planned for the rest of the day other than
