We've had a lovely day at Richmond Castle today and even though the sun didn't make an appearance we still had a brilliant afternoon.At this point I should probably tell you about the history of this 900 (I think) year old castle but to be honest I didn't read a single sign as I was too busy exploring the many little tunnels and staircases around the castle ruins and snapping the usual pictures of the kids climbing everywhere they possibly could.There were no special events going on and there were hardly any other people there as you can see from the photo above which we took from a … [Read more...]

This isn't the post that I had planned for today but something happened last night that made me hug my children a bit harder before bed and has had me feeling sad all day today so this is my attempt to try and help stop it from happening again.Last night, at 7pm, a little boy's life support machine was switched off in a town very close to where I live.

This post is a prime example as I started writing it … [Read more...]
10 clever ways to save money as a pet owner….
I can't remember what out house was like before we got our dog but I can tell you that our beautiful Bichon Frise Buddy has completed our family perfectly and we can't imagine not having him now.He's quite a high maintenance little pooch if I'm honest but we knew that before we got him because we researched the best breed for our family extensively. The thing that sold me on him was the fact that he wouldn't shed his hair everywhere (it had nothing to do with that cute face, honest!) and the fact that, as a breed, they're known to be a very friendly and playful dog.Before we … [Read more...]
