The beginning of July feels like forever ago and yet the month seems to have gone really quickly – how is it the 1st of August already?! We are currently almost at the end of the second week of the six week summer holidays and they are disappearing far too fast for my liking. We’ve…
I follow a LOT of photographers online. I find it inspiring seeing such an incredible amount of variety in people’s work and art, and I frequently find myself gathering new ideas for different perspectives to try; alternative ways to photograph something; and simple tips, suggestions and ‘how to’ techniques with regards to the more technical…
June seems to have passed by quite quickly and I’m not entirely sure how we’re halfway through the year already. I said that to someone the other day and their response was to cheerfully let me know that “it’ll be Christmas before we know it!”. Um, no. Just, no. In contrast to the last four…
Hi there. everybody! Today’s post is all about the second half of our holiday to Bude, North Cornwall. Part One was all about the first five days of our trip – Saturday to Wednesday – and this time it will be documenting the last five days – Thursday to Monday (we left on Tuesday). So…
May felt like a total whirlwind of a month. We got home from our annual Easter trip to Cornwall at the end of April and exactly one month later we jetted off to Boston for May half term! The girls had precisely sixteen days of actual school (plus weekends in between) and during that time…
Hi there! I’m very sorry- I haven’t been on here for a VERY long time! We have had the fire, two months of a kitchen-free environment and have just been on holiday to Bude, North Cornwall. And so here is Part One of my blog post… ENJOY! Day One: Saturday After waking up really early…
On my 33rd birthday three years ago, I posted a list of 40 things I want to do, achieve and experience before I turn 40 years old in 2023. I’d originally started the list when I turned thirty but I hadn’t launched my blog at that point so it existed solely in the relative privacy…
April has been a month of two halves. The Easter holidays couldn’t have arrived quickly enough after an intense fortnight of complete and utter chaos in the lead up to them. Work and school were overwhelmingly busy for each of us and there was some kind of event (sporting-, acting- or house-related) happening on almost…
Two weeks ago, on 19th March 2019, my Grannie left this earth. She was just six weeks short of her 99th birthday. She was an incredible character in so many different ways. She out-lived two of her four children and leaves behind her a legacy of eight grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. Family was everything to…
March has been an interesting month. It has felt pretty full-on, intense, and, if I’m honest, rather stressful at times. I’m going to be quite glad to see the back of it. We still have no kitchen following the fire we had last month, although thankfully things are starting to move forwards now and we…
