• Back to School Essentials with Chemist.co.uk

    September 26, 2017

    School has been in full force for a number of weeks now and our girls have settled into year one really well. It seems the transition from nursery into reception was the most difficult as there were tears, but as I watched our girls walk into their classroom for the start of year one, there…

  • A Pug’s Christmas

    December 2, 2015

    I love Christmas adverts! When I spot the first one on TV I know it’s officially the festive season! We all have our favourites when it comes to festive TV adverts and as a glasses wearer I have to admit that Vision Direct’s take on the Christmas advert is pretty good! Featuring a young boy…

  • Chemist Direct Review

    June 22, 2015

    As you read this post I’d like to let you know that I’m currently on holiday in Menorca!

Instead of looking for clothes for me, I’m always looking for pretty clothes for our twin girls! My usual morning routine was to…

  • Viking Direct Stationery Review

    May 15, 2014

    Like many people I love a bit of stationery.  I don’t know why or exactly what it is that I find so interesting about it, but it’s fair to say I own quite a bit of stationery.  I was recently contacted by Viking to review some of their products.  Viking are a large office supplies retailer…

  • Our Dream Garden

    October 27, 2013

    We love summer time here in our home, but to us playing in the garden is an all year round activity. The picture above was taken one cold afternoon in our garden. Our twins love running around barefoot in the summer and come winter we’ll wrap them up warm and kick a ball about! We…
