Everything I do in my life I tend to go at with total and complete enthusiasm. For about a month or two. Sometimes longer but in the words of Joan Armatrading – the passion fades. So it is rather refreshing that the slightly strange and unintended ‘self-improvement’ programme I seem to have undertaken has, in [...]
Several years ago I bought a Gro Clock for Eliza, she was waking up too damn early for my liking and I’d tried everything. Finally this clock worked. The Sun came up at the time I had set to be ‘morning’ and she came trotting in to our room. Genius. For about a week. Until [...]
*Thank you for visiting but this competition is now closed* Once upon a time I used to lounge around on the sofa on a Saturday or Sunday morning reading papers, watching The Chart Show (remember that?!), now I can mostly be found baking (at 7am, that’s fun, not), up to my eyes in glue, glitter [...]
This is a guest post courtesy of Littlewoods. It’s rather optimistic since the weather is hardly likely to have us all getting our wardrobes ready for Spring, but we live in hope!

If you’d asked me before I had children if I’d be happy for them to use hand held gaming devices I’d probably have said no; because in my idealistic projection of life with children they wouldn’t be needed, wanted or tolerated. We’d all be constantly making things with old loo rolls and merrily creating hand [...]
I tried the Snugg iPhone 4 case and reviewed it. Best part was the kids couldn’t get the phone out. Result.
As a mummy blogger I very rarely get asked to review anything that is actually for me. Apart from the lovely girls at Mint Velvet, who asked me to be one of their ‘mums on the go’ and try out some of their utterly gorgeous clothes that is. I heart them. A lot. And now [...]
Hard to believe my little Tilly is 3 now. It’s fair to say her language and vocabulary has developed at a faster pace than her hair. She has gorgeous wispy fairy hair. White blonde. Not a thing like me at all. But she can talk the hind legs of Mabel. She chats away about the [...]
