This is quite possibly the most fun thing we've done in a long time - it certainly made us laugh more than I can remember us laughing before. At one point I literally had tears rolling down my face although that could have been because Master Frugal burped in the water on his last go ;-) … [Read more...]
Conker Chaos….
We've had such a busy time lately that we decided last weekend was going to be a do nothing weekend and for the most part, we succeeded in doing absolutely nothing that didn't involve pyjamas and blankets ;-)But by Sunday night we needed to get out and do something so we put our wellies and coats on since it was looking a bit grey outside and headed to the park for a conker hunt. The park where all the good conkers can be found is about 15 minutes drive away and I'm not exaggerating when I say that by the time we go there the rain was bouncing and the sky was so dark you'd think the end … [Read more...]
Review: Airkix Manchester….
It was taken last weekend at Airkix in Manchester where we had a go an indoor skydiving (by we, I mean everyone but me ;-)). It was an amazing experience and one which I would definitely recommend doing it at least once. I know what you're thinking and it's also not nearly as expensive as you might think with prices starting at £29.99 for two flights for a first time flyer. As well as the actual flights, the price includes a full training and safety briefing by a qualified instructor before you enter the wind tunnel as well as a certificate afterwards. While they were doing their … [Read more...]
Remember Twinkle….
One of my most treasured possessions is a video from my sixth Birthday party - mainly because it never fails to cheer me up. Not only can I can shut my eyes and listen to my Mam, my brother and my Nana's voices and pretend they're still here with us, I also have the option of keeping my eyes open and laughing my way through the dodgy hairstyles and jumpsuits that they're all wearing.Also, the cake never fails to make me giggle. Remember those toilet roll holders that were made up of a doll wearing a big knitted skirt that covered the toilet roll? Well it was a cake version of that and … [Read more...]
The Perfect Sleepover Plan….
I think it's safe to say that Miss Frugal has inherited my love of lists:Note to self: Discuss over use of the word 'gonna' and work on the spelling of the word 'kebab' ;-) … [Read more...]
Do some brands take advantage of our children?
It's no secret that Miss Frugal is a big One Direction fan - we've been to the concert, seen the movie, bought the (very expensive) T-shirt, paid for the albums and spent pocket money on all sorts of different One Direction memorabilia over the last year or so.So when I saw there was a One Direction perfume being released, I knew she'd be desperate to add a bottle to her growing One Direction collection. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting but it certainly wasn't what we found after following the trail of One Direction cutouts through the shop. I was pleasantly surprised by the … [Read more...]
