Summer Ritual 26 Aug 2013 | 11:10 pm
Our beautiful long summer stretches on. There's been a little overnight rain but mostly days have moved gently on, bathing us in sunshine, calm days and peaceful nights. It's a Bank Holiday in England...
Biking Through Summer 16 Aug 2013 | 03:13 am
The past eight months have seen me on a bit of a journey, literally. Way back in January I bought a bike. A proper bike with lots of gears and no basket. I started gently. Just a few flat miles on...
Decade 11 Aug 2013 | 03:48 pm
Our boy is ten! I've no idea where on earth the last decade has disappeared to if I'm honest. Somewhere along the way I'm sure we must have skipped a year or two. He's growing into such a caring, g...

A Brilliant Bank Holiday 29 May 2013 | 03:25 am
Despite the awful weather and a week of the lurgy we made ourselves chuck some things into our battered little caravan and on Saturday trundled North for a long planned stay in the Yorkshire Dales. An...
Walking Home 25 May 2013 | 01:48 am
It hasn't really been an easy week. Sickness bugs have laid half the house low and the other half of us are tired out too with broken nights and much laundering going on. My little man has found all ...
A Grand Day Out 22 May 2013 | 09:48 pm
Sunday was such a lovely day up here. We fancied a trip out and ended up at Chatsworth; the playground for the boys while Grandma and I had a good old saunter around the gardens. I was ever so tempte...
