A Rambling we will go… Slindon Bottom!

30th October 201510th February 2020

Last Sunday I signed up to ramblers.org.uk and looked up a nice circular walk we could do as a family, and chose Slindon in West Sussex. Weย visited last year too but Athena was obviously not able to walk as far as she was only one and a bit, and there is an awesome pumpkin display… Read More

Getting personal with I Just Love It

15th October 201510th February 2020

On Tuesday I was invited to a really fun event up in London with I just Love It, a website specialising in personalised gifts for everyone and anyone! They were previously known as ‘Gone digging’ and have been about for around 7 years so are not new to the market by any means, just sporting… Read More

Days Out: London Eye & Kensington Palace

18th September 201510th February 2020
kensington-palace

Last Sunday we had the most perfect family day out in London doing touristy things! My love for London is well known but there are still more than a few attractions I’ve not visited, but now I can tick another two off my list thanks to 365 Tickets! According to my mum I turned down… Read More

Days Out: Lewes

24th August 201510th February 2020

For my Mums birthday this year we went to spend a day in Lewes. I have been a few times before but never really done the touristy bits. We visited the Castle (well, what’s left of it) and also Anne of Cleves house. You can buy a joint ticket that gives you access to both… Read More

Travel: A day out in Hastings

8th August 201510th February 2020
Hastings Sussex

Last Sunday we spent the day in Hastings being tourists! We hadn’t had a family day out a while and Hastings is about an hour drive from us, long enough to not go very often but not so far that the journey is unbearable with two children!ย Hastings is a seaside town in East Sussex and… Read More

Planes and boats with the iCandy Raspberry

2nd July 201510th February 2020

Athena loves planes. Sam loves planes, possibly because his dad was a pilot. His sister works with private jets too so it seems to be in the blood! We decided to give Athena a treat last week and take her to see the planes at Shoreham Airport, although it’s actually Brighton and Hove city airport… Read More

Funk the Family Festival!

2nd June 201513th April 2021

  On Saturday we spent a glorious afternoon in Hove Park at Funk the Family Festival, which is a one day music festival that caters for all ages! We all had fun and were exhausted by the time we left (earlier than planned due to a non-napping toddler, but who can blame her as there… Read More

A stroll amongst the Bluebells

9th May 201510th February 2020

Yesterday we decided to blow away the cobwebs with a stroll through some local woods, complete with added bluebells! Now I know there are woods a bit more of a walk away that are more like a carpet of bluebells rather than the semi-sparse spattering we saw today but they were pretty nonetheless! Leaving the… Read More

Blog takeover: Ode to Brighton

31st March 201510th February 2020

When I approached Lauren to ask her if sheโ€™d like me to guest post, it (almost) automatically sprung to my mind that I absolutely have to write about Brighton.ย Brighton is my favourite city in the world to visit, and whilst I havenโ€™t exactly scoured the globe, Iโ€™m pretty confident that it will stay a firm… Read More

Pumpkins Tepee’s & picnics

19th October 20145th February 2019

  ย  Like a lot of people it seems, autumn is my favourite season of the year.ย  The colours, the cooler weather, the darker evenings and the smells. Much as I like to enjoy autumn from inside the house with a nice smelling candle and a mug of cocoa, I like to be out exploring… Read More

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 ๐Ÿ™„

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 ๐Ÿ™Œ

Ad|gifted๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฆ—๐ŸŒˆ We've been playing #Mantis a Ad|gifted๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฆ—๐ŸŒˆ 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 ๐ŸŽ‰

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 ๐Ÿคช 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 ๐Ÿ’ฅ
