A week before I went on holiday I headed off to The Baby Show in London and was kindly invited to the Stokke Launch to take a look at their new Trailz pushchair and the winter packs. Stokke is a brand that I have always admired from afar, so this was my first chance to actually push, touch and…
I missed last Sundays post because I was away in Milton Keynes, but most of the week before that was spent in Morocco (I will get a post up soon!) so I’m going to skip over that week and focus on this one, which was pretty dull even by my standards. In my defence I was suffering from the…
Half way already, I am convinced time is speeding by faster than a speeding bullet in this pregnancy! I have downloaded a couple of pregnancy apps but very rarely check them, unlike last time when I checked almost daily! The baby is the size of a Mango or a Banana apparently though, depending on which app you use! 2 weeks…
When I asked Sam where in the UK he’d like to spend a weekend, courtesy of Travelodge I was a bit disappointed with his answer of ‘Milton Keynes please’. But seeing as I’d just left him to look after Athena for five days so I could swan off to Marrakesh with friends I couldn’t really complain, so he picked me…
As part of the Bahlsen Book Club I love having a new book to read every month that requires no choosing on my behalf. It’s normally only ever on holiday when I run out of books and attack the hotels shelf of ‘left behind books’ for the only English ones that this ever happens, normally I dither and faff…
Hello! I’m Leanne from over at The Dress Diaries and the wonderful Lauren has kindly asked me to post for her whilst she’s away. Unfortunately, I’ve never been to Brighton (it’s on my priority list!) but in keeping with lovely coastal towns, this is the perfect opportunity to share some of the perks of living by the seaside. Up until…
Todays Blog Takeover post is from a good friend of mine, and very new blogger called Karina… The title of this post is a phrase that took me a while to understand. A very lovely yoga teacher who I follow the teachings of uses it in one of her Youtube videos. At first I was at a loss to understand.…
Well hello there you! I’m Lindsey and I blog over at ArabianNotes.com about daily life and my experiences living in the United Arab Emirates. I’ve lived outside of the UK now since 2006, though I grew up in the UK and went to University in Brighton so I do love a good read of Belle du Brighton and am very…
Last Sunday was a quick trip to Lancing College for a pretty disappointing craft fayre. It was 90% stuff that I could have made myself like cd clocks and decoupage boxes. A bit of a let down especially considering they charged an entry fee! It was kind of worth it to see inside this famous and pretty Harry Potter-esque…
My mum gave me an early Christmas present of two cute makeup bags this week in preparation for my holiday, and because Sam is working over the weekend before I go I’ve been attempting to pack a little bit up each evening so it’s not a major rush, so last nights task was skin & hair care packing! Miracle…
I love to get Athena dressed, and try to dress her nicely on days when we are together (As opposed to nursery where I send her in old leggings and a top!) but when I am away next week I am already cringing at the getups that Sam will have her in. I am tempted to lay out an outfit…
I’ve never been the most house proud of people as you may have noticed if you’ve ever been round for tea! I keep the place as clean as I can, and tidy every so often… but with two small people untidying things as fast as I try it’s a bit of an endless mission! I’ve put together my tips for…
