Running out of Energy Choices?
We’ve gone through various periods of financial stability or instability in the house over the years; we’ve had times when were were literally living one month to the next, or more often than not, more like last month encroaching only to soon on the one ahead. We’ve had fortunate times where we’ve had a little […]
Anglesey Abbey
Anglesey Abbey is neither in Anglesey, nor an Abbey, so far as I could tell from the wander we had around it on our way home from Bury St Edmunds. It was, however, completely gorgeous and we’ll definitely be going back to do more there. It was one of those National Trust properties where they […]
Flower Power thanks to Interflora
When I got an email the other week asking if I would like to sample the delights of a bouquet of flowers from the lovely Interflora, I may have squeaked quite loudly. Well, okay, shrieked with delight rather a lot, if I’m honest! I’m a complete sucker for flowers, whether in the garden or in […]

The upshot of this was, as we suspected, they thing she needs more surgery to correct her cleft palate. It’s been obvious for a while that she is hoarse and […]
The only time you'll ever see a Vlog here
The PuddleChicks tell you why they would love us to win the MAD Blog Award for Best Family Life Blog or Most Inspiring Blog. I have sweated blood over this as I made the stupid mistake of doing it on my phone not the flip camera. I therefore think it has lost a little in […]
Garden and Allotment Updates
Claire and Charlie bought this (and it’s pair) after Freddie died last year. Claire, it is just so beautiful this year 🙂 I just love these two. The garden is nice at the moment, in a slightly wild and a bit too purple and blue sort of way. But these two just make me shiver […]

Two Give Away Results – did you win?
First of all, a horribly delayed result to the Tulip Fabric Paint Giveaway. Sorry it was slow, things got in the way. The winner of the Starter Pack of Tulip Fabric Paint is Jax, from LiveOtherwise. I chose this using a randomiser and it picked out her “retweeted” comment. The second pack goes to Rachel […]
