which is of course what I should have titled the first post 😉 Right, about to contact Legoland to clarify their HE pricing but on their website they are showing educational rates now of £5 per child and £15 per adult with one adult free for every 10 kids – which has hiked up somewhat …

Pre Spring Walk
Was lovely 🙂 The weather looked a bit grim but as we drove over to Slindon it brightened up and was dry if not particularly sunny. It was so mild today too – no need for hats and gloves and actually barely a need for coats. 🙂 We arrived a bit before Chris and Julie …
Sigh…
Did I mention I ran out of tea?
This, this is poor!
We’ve run out of tea!!!! 😯 We still have our seven pounds in coppers, we didn’t get to the bank to change it into ‘real money’ yesterday, so we’ll have to pay for our potatoes and parsnips we need to go with our roast dinner all in coppers later, but yesterday morning I used the …
Days Out
Planning a few days out with the children for the next couple of months. We’ve not been up to London for ages and they’ve both been asking to go. I’m quite tempted by the London Aquarium but it’s not cheap so I reckon we might do the Tate modern instead – I really fancy a …
Seen at Chris and Helen’s
and quite wildly inaccurate 😆 GREEN You are a very calm and contemplative person. Others are drawn to your peaceful, nurturing nature. Find out your color at QuizMeme.com!
You’re beautiful…
you’re beautiful, you’re beautiful…
Dance your cares away…
I worked all day today which was very nice. 🙂 It was fairly busy and I spent lots of time stamping books and beeping things and feeling quite efficient. My favourite colleague, who I should name really – F was in in the afternoon so I spent time chatting to her. I like that getting …
In my opinionation the sun is gonna surely shine…
taken from the theme tune of which show of your youth? Seem to have forgotten to blog yesterday. I am suffering a bit of blog apathy at the moment, not that I don’t have anything to say or record, not that it’s all good or all bad, simply that I just can’t be arsed to …

Everybody knows one…
A what? Bet Chris gets it! Made some cakes with the children this morning in a desperate bid to not only have cheap white and slightly stale bread for sandwiches for lunch. So we made fairy cakes – Scarlett set out the paper cake cases, Davies did some stirring and they had a spoon each …
That’s why they call me Mrs Fahrenheit…
Oh how I whooshed today. Here, there and everywhere, with a whoosh and a swhoosh and a sizzle. I tried to have a lie-in and told the children I’d get up when Wonderpets started but Scarlett wanted me to get up NOW when Ady left to go to work around 7am so she was bribed …
Susumama (again)
I have an outstanding order from Jax and I know Kirsty wanted some bits. Will do an order early March which I can arrange dispatch via NicCamps for so does anyone else want anything? Website at susumama.co.uk – sale items will not be wholesale price but will possibly be cheaper than the sale price advertised. …
You’ve got to laugh a little…
More groundbreaking stuff happening this week 🙂 Last night I had my first EVER night away from my children. Ever. Not the longest I’ve been away from them, and we once left the house at 6am and didn’t come home again until midnight, so technically I didn’t see them for a whole day, but the …
Brrrrr! Winter y’know :)
But far more entertaining that continuing with the whole Winter thing I have greater news. I have a revelation that may shock you to the core, tip the world from it’s axis, make you question everything you knew to be true. Every certainty you held dear, everything you felt was a given, something you could …
Woke on a winter morning
Rather later than I should have done what with me needing to get to work and all. 😳 The children had a winter drink and dressed in their winter clothes while I put my winter make up on and got dressed too. I’d very sensibly covered my windscreen this morning in preparation of all the …
Blown away cobwebs
We met Julie, Jack and Maisie for a winters walk at Slindon today and it was lovely. 🙂 The sky was blue and it was a clear, crisp winters day, cold but perfect to be out and about in. Most of the mud was still frozen hard (although the children managed to find every soft …
Rough with the smooth
It hasn’t been a great 24 hours really, with me in tears several times due to generations both above and below me but we’ll write that off as a bad couple of days and move forward to better tomorrows. I got my new laptop today – it’s a Toshiba U200-161 for any technical types who …
Mail Me!
Have just collected my new new new laptop and am setting everything up on it. As by far the most boring job is transfering across all my email addresses (and I’m bound to miss loads anyway) please click here and send me an email so I can add you to my address book 🙂 Ta!
Monday Monday
This morning started with a healthy dose of Wonderpets, breakfast and me dashing about. I made sandwiches for the children’s lunch to take with us, bunged some (English) muffins and butter in a bag for me and hoped there was indeed a toaster at MM group and all the ingredients for playdough and we were …
