How to keep carpets clean with pets & kids

3rd March 2020

This is a  collaborative post. Various incidents often occur with children and pets, which have devastating consequences for carpets. Animals can try to use your carpet as a toilet, or your kids may try to “paint” it with a nail polisher, and this is terrible as stains are almost impossible to remove. For that reason,… Read More

Interiors: Bean Bag Chairs

24th February 202026th February 2020

Last year we redecorated the living room. Freshly painting the walls and wallpapering two of them. I’d bought lilac sofas the year before the replace our huge old black lounger which made the room look so much bigger! We have a corner of the living room that has a small alcove under a stained glass window that… Read More

Interiors: Bespoke & Unusual Wall Murals

13th February 202017th February 2020

Redecorating  is not a task undertaken easily, but I think a lot of us have an idea about what each room in the home could look like next.  Furniture, flooring and wallpaper are all huge elements in how a room comes together  and  Wallsauce   has a great way to  update a room in a unique… Read More

Style: Scaramanga Backpack

11th February 202011th February 2020

I’ve been a fan of backpacks since  my  youngest was born – it suddenly seemed so much easier to pop all the stuff I needed for two kids under 2 years old in a backpack than a proper changing bag that was always swinging off my shoulders and bashing into things, or making me walk… Read More

Fashion: Winter Layers

21st December 201910th February 2020

It’s definitely winter, the temp has dropped and we had our first frost recently too. It’s definitely time for a winter wardrobe update and I’ll be needing lots of layers in New York when we visit in a few weeks too! Lily Lulu  has so much to choose from, with a great selection of jumpers… Read More

20th Century Interior Design Ideas You Should Embrace

19th December 201910th February 2020

Collaborative post. If you’re looking to add some timeless style to your interior design approach in your home, it makes sense to take inspiration from the mid 20th century’s greatest moments. The modernist interior design styles that were so prevalent during this period of history remain appealing to so many people and it’s definitely not… Read More

9th December 201910th February 2020

This post  is an advertorial, written  by me in partnership with Mobility Plus.  The bathroom in our house is also called the ‘room of doom’ and as yet we’ve not got a budget to completely  make it over, and we want to finish it as close to when we sell this house as possible.  The… Read More

Interiors: How to Make a Small Room look Bigger

18th November 201910th February 2020

There’s always that one small room in the house that we struggle to make full use of. If it’s not the bedroom for the unlucky sibling, it’s used as some sort of dumping ground for bits and pieces which you just haven’t managed to find a home for yet. This is usually because no-one wants… Read More

Much as I love 'jumper season' I'm over this frost Much as I love 'jumper season' I'm over this frost. Our boiler sounds like it's struggling as it whines more than Arlo does when he hasn't eaten in an hour. Much like the rest of you I imagine, I'm feeling a bit numb and fed up right now. I also can't shake this cold/cough (been tested, not covid) and it's been lingering for 3+ weeks now. I fall asleep at the drop of a hat too, like a little old lady and find it hard to get up in the mornings. I just want spring time, normality energy and clear nasal passages IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

I've been outside more today than I have for the f I've been outside more today than I have for the for past week. We've basically been hibernating since Christmas eve apart from the odd trip to the shop up the road. Today I walked round Devils Dyke with a friend early in the morning and then went to the beach in the afternoon for the kids to let off some steam. The sun setting was gorgeous and it made me realise I'd missed the sea as I'd not been in ages! Anyway, one more day at home tomorrow (inset day for us!) And hopefully back to school Tuesday but we'll see. For us its the right decision as my children thrive on routine, and I thrive on being able to work without distraction or having to try and teach them! 

Happy New Year!

What day is it? What's the date? Pass the tin of c What day is it? What's the date? Pass the tin of celebrations please? When did Arlo get so good at putting Lego sets together on his own? Is this the first year I didn't get a book for Christmas? Should we actually leave the house at some point? Can I be bothered to stay up and ring in the new year? When will we be able to see our friends? How long will tier 4 last? Will there be a 5? How many cups of tea have I had today? When will the cat stop attacking our ankles? Is it okay to take the tree down today? But can I leave the lights up round the picture rail forever? 

Answers on a postcard please. Hope you're all okay.
Walking in a winter-muddy-land. So this is Christm Walking in a winter-muddy-land. So this is Christmas. Tier 4 beckons on boxing day for us and so many others, which has rather scuppered our plans to meet up with friends for outside strolls in that bit between Christmas and New Year. So we're doing it today instead whilst its still allowed. Amazingly Sam has five days off work now, although he may well do some overtime at some point seeing as he's at home anyway 😒
I hope everyone has the best day they can despite it being the weirdest Christmas at the end of the strangest year. HO HO HO and all that! 🎄🤶🎅🎁
