This week we were asked to review the Puppy Surprise toy from Flair. At first, I was a bit confused. I never had my own Puppy Surprise but I thought they were a thing of my childhood. A little Google told me that they were in fact released in 1991, and there are even some vintage ones on Ebay if […]

We’re going gluten free. Well, the small one is, again. I like bread just way too much. And cake, and pasta, and biscuits; basically all the things that make me bloat like I’m six months pregnant but are totally worth it. So yea… this post is not going to be very funny, and there’s a bit of poo chat. No

It was the small one’s second birthday at the weekend. I still can’t believe he’s two. In many ways, for example his ability to argue back, he seems so much older, but he’s still my youngest baby. We decided to forgo the party and instead have a day out to celebrate. Fortunately his birthday coincided with the Big Day Out,

Red Letter Days provides experience days which you can buy as gifts for those people who actually do have everything already.

What a great yolk).

Before I was a wine drinker, I was a fan of cider. Or, back in my student days, cider and black. Then I got to 26 and I was getting married, and wanted to lose a few pounds stone, I went on WeightWatchers and found out there was EIGHT WEIGHTWATCHERS POINTS in a pint of cider. I got about 25

Among other things, last week was the week that we got rid of our conservatory. When we bought our house in 2009, one of the reasons we chose it over the others in our budget was the conservatory. The glass cathedral, we called it at the time; I’m fairly sure Doug came up with that one. It wasn’t actually that big;

Why do giraffes have such long necks? Because they have smelly feet.* Now that I have your attention, let me tell you about Wicked Uncle. I’ve worked with Wicked Uncle twice before. The first time, just over a year ago, was my very first experience of being sent anything for review and I could not rave about them enough. The Whingelets

Living in Tonbridge in Kent, there are some amazing things to do with kids locally, especially when the weather starts to perk up. You can see some of the places we’ve been to under the ‘Travel and days out‘ tab – which I am slowly adding to as time permits. However, I’ll be frank; when you have kids who are
