21 Words We Love to Hate

27th October 201710th February 2020
words we love to hate

I love language, specifically the English language because I can’t speak any others fluently! I love to find out how words are put together, their origins and all sorts other linguistical delights. However, there are some words that I really, really dislike to hear or read. I though I’d share a few with you with… Read More

Things That Make Me Irrationally Angry On Social Media

2nd March 201710th February 2020
what annoys you on social media

I am a person that is easily annoyed, though thankfully not easily too offended. I often see things and think NOOOOOOO!!!! Now I’ve got to the rip of old age of 33 (I know right, don’t look a day over 21!) I have just started to unfollow or mute these occurrences when I see them.… Read More

Annoyances- the General Public edition

25th October 201410th February 2020

  I find myself ranting (in my head, not out loud… yet) on a regular basis. I don’t know if it is because I turned 30, or became a mum, or perhaps because I pregnant and irritable, but I thought I should share these annoyances and see if anyone else feels the same way. Do… Read More

Thoughts: Show-off Mums and why they annoy me

26th June 20144th December 2020

My last β€˜thoughts’ post about parenting style was about a bad parent I witnessed (in my opinion, you may not agree) and I think the person in today’s post is almost as bad but for different reasons. I’m started writing this on a train home from London.Β  I’m sat on a fold-down seat with Athena… Read More

Annoyances: Miserable shop workers

12th April 201425th October 2014

Okay, before anyone tells me or gets annoyed because they were/are someone that works on the tills in retail please know that I have only felt the need to write this because I want to make the world a better place! Well, actually because these things seem to have happened quite a lot to me… Read More

Annoyances: Facebook

22nd November 201319th November 2018

Part one of my occasional series on annoyances is Facebook. I’m just going to list what irritates me about it, there’s a lot! If I could get away with print screening and blanking out peoples names I would, but although hardly anyone in my β€˜real life’ is aware that I blog I wouldn’t risk it!… Read More

What are your kids reading? Athena's birthday lis What are your kids reading?

Athena's birthday list consists of a LOT of books this year. She keeps meticulous lists of which books of a series she's read\needs to read and will spend ages at the Library working scouring the shelves for new series to get into.  She's currently loving the Storey Treehouse books and Dork Diaries.

The only issue with her sudden and very strong enthusiasm is that she'll often appear back down stairs at 9.30pm to tell us "I've finished my book" 🀣 if only she'd somehow manage to pass the bookworm bug onto Arlo via osmosis or something... πŸ“šπŸ”–πŸ“šπŸ”–

Beautiful blue skies from earlier in the week. Aru Beautiful blue skies from earlier in the week. Arundel castle is somewhere I've lived close to for my whole life, yet had only ever visited as a very small child. This week I visited the gardens with a friend and absolutely loved it, and will definitely be back to visit the castle itself. The glimpse I saw when we had tea a d scones in the restaurant was gorgeous!

 I'm trying to make a reel by instasham keeps glitching and I can't add music, so maybe you'll see it and maybe you won't πŸ™„

After another really busy week I'm switching off for the weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday tomorrow and out for a stroll on Sunday πŸ™Œ

Sam did the longer 5 mile run along the sand whilst the tide was out but we walked home via the shop for congratulatory ice creams instead of waiting for him as it was well past bedtime by that point!

Ad|giftedπŸƒπŸ¦—πŸŒˆ We've been playing #Mantis a Ad|giftedπŸƒπŸ¦—πŸŒˆ We've been playing #Mantis a lot recently, it's a new game but has quickly become a firm favourite, with us and the friends we've played it with.

Each game lasts around 10 minutes so it's great to play whilst dinners cooking, but you might want to carry on during dinner as it's a little addictive and you'll end up playing a few rounds πŸŽ‰

The aim of the game is to score ten points first by collecting sets of coloured cards. Easy right!? No, because other players can sabotage you and steal your cards for themselves (but, you might have the chance to steal them back!) 

It's really easy to pick up and Arlo managed to beat us all on his first time playing πŸ€ͺ another plus is that's it's very portable and you don't need too much space to play, so perfect to take to friends houses, restaurants and on holiday!

It's from the team who bought us #ExplodingKittens and you can purchase this and other games from explodingkittens.com πŸ’₯
