Half Term at the National Railway Museum in York….
If you're looking for a day out this half term, I can strongly recommend the National Railway Museum in York. We went on Sunday and had a fantastic day.The theme for this week is Big Fun with Little Trains and there's loads going on.

We also took the road train into York city centre and spent at least 40 minutes trying to build a Meccano aeroplane that did not turn out like we wanted it to, no matter how much the lovely man tried to help us … [Read more...]

One of the symptoms of her infection has been a bad cough that's kept her awake at night, made her sick and occasionally even caused her to wee herself a little bit (because of the coughing you understand).Anyway, this morning when she was dropping her daughter off at school she was having a rather loud coughing fit in the playground when her daughter said to one of her school friends ' Uh oh, I really hope she doesn't wee herself again'. However, as my *friend* was still coughing, her daughter thought she … [Read more...]
How I know I need to clean my house….
Yes, I know I need to clean my house because Miss Frugal has been able to write me a message in the dust on the base of our TV. (In my defense, I've been unwell with a chest infection for the last month but still....) … [Read more...]
