Review: Binatone KidzStar eReader

December 20, 2012 by

Given my high level gadget adoration status (so long as it isn't android, I'm yet to be convinced on those) it's hardly surprising that the girls are similar. This years christmas list comprises almost entirely gadgets… And if I had my way I'd be replacing my Kindle to a paperwhite (though I'm holding out for […]

Sad

December 18, 2012 by

My blogging mojo is all gone, though it might be here if there was any time between housework and educating and holiday and taxi driving pantomime dancers around. And everyone else's christmas, which they remembered nearly as late as I did and so corresponding quantities of panic have been detected in those ordering from our […]

Rock Doc in Cambridge Trip.

December 13, 2012 by

It's hard to believe, but my brother is a fully fledged rock doc, a doctor of geological stuff, on loan from Australia. We are very much enjoying having him here. Today, having navigated sick babies, freezing fog, various other things and goodness knows what, we took a day out for the girls to do some […]

December 11, 2012 by

I’ve just come back from a week with friends who might as well be family; this year I played Santa, having organised the secret santa which always consists of thoughtfully made, cooked or thrifted gifts for people we have all known for nearly 10 years. Each year the gifts seem to get more beautiful, the […]

Sponsored Video: Vote for a Piggy!

December 9, 2012 by

You might remember recently that I wrote the post about the NatWest Piggie competition. Well, I’m popping up again to ask you to ask you to vote for your favourite of the winners. We didn’t make the shortlist but looking at the entries, I think the quality was high enough for us not to feel […]

Post Laser Eye Surgery Max’s post is below, but since he’s had all the limelight on this one, I thought I might reclaim the top spot and give you my two penny worth first 😉 This has genuinely been the oddest thing. Max wore lenses when I first knew him and was quite vain about […]

I can see clearly now…

November 22, 2012 by

Here is Max’s account of the day of his Laser Eye surgery with Optical Express. I may possibly have annotated it a bit. Perhaps. The Day of Surgery So, the day of the eye surgery has come around, pretty quickly really and my overwhelming thoughts are “this isn’t really going to happen” and any time […]

Sponsored Post: Oh Christmas Tree!

November 22, 2012 by

Seems a good time to remind you of some of the Christmas resources I have floating about. There is the Christmas Crafts section on here but I am slowly moving some of those on to Simple Crafts so they are easier to find. There are also lots of new crafts on there too including this […]

Sponsored Video: Design a Natwest Pig.

November 9, 2012 by

I think all of our generation must remember the Natwest pigs, their adverts and the tremendous desire to collect them they provoked, I don’t think it can just have been me anyway, I know I was devastated that my parents wouldn’t move my (paltry) savings to Natwest so that I too could have a family […]

The in a minute mummy

November 8, 2012 by

Dear Bene, You are nine months old. I'm so late with this post. Again. I fear this is the way it will go on now. To be honest though, little fella, I think I've been avoiding this one. I remember writing a post to your brother when he should have been nine months, it was […]
