There are so many reasons why our favourite way to get somewhere is to travel by train. No one has to drive, it's more comfortable, you can move about when you want to, you can get a table and play games or relax listening to your music, you can get just about anywhere and finally, it's great value for money! Oh and if someone needs a wee, they don't have to wait twenty miles for the next service station.So when thetrainline.com offered to pay for us to go on an adventure by train we said a big yes and started planning where we wanted to go. The only problem was that we couldn't … [Read more...]
How to help your Fussy Eater (or at least how I helped my own little Fussy Eater)….
I know I’ve mentioned before that Master Frugal is a very fussy eater and I’ve also shared how he has become more willing to try new foods as he’s got older.The thing is, he’s still not great and there are a lot of foods that he won’t eat and I worry that he’s not always getting the right types of food – especially when we’re away from home. When we went to Butlins recently, there was often very little healthy food that he liked so it was hot dogs, burgers and chips most nights for him which clearly isn’t ideal.It’s been on my mind quite a lot over the last few weeks as I’ve been … [Read more...]
The odd sock mystery….
One morning last week we were due to meet friends of ours at the local park for a catch up and I stupidly left the kids in bed as late as possible so they could catch up on some much needed sleep.I ended up getting them up half an hour before we were due to leave and had a little smug smile to myself when they were up dressed, washed and sat on the settee munching on a chocolate croissant with a glass of milk with five minutes to spare.Unfortunately, the smugness was wiped off my face when I sent Master Frugal to put his socks on!He could find lots of socks - that wasn't the … [Read more...]

How to get free XBox games….
This week's #SaveMoneyMonday is all about free games for your Xbox so it's bound to go down well with the little people if they have an Xbox.The free games are available to all Xbox Live gold members which the majority of people who have an Xbox already seem to be - I know my children are, as are all of their friends so I'm guessing that most people who have an Xbox will be Gold members already and be able to take advantage of this deal without any further action.If you're not a Gold member already, it is a service you pay for but it's well worth it as you get lots more content as well … [Read more...]
Siblings – September….
How can another month have gone by so quickly?It's just ridiculous and it seems to be going even faster now that they're settling back in at school.We've had a much more relaxing and laid back Summer than usual and after the first couple of weeks of cramming in as much as we could, we spent the next few weeks doing very little which was lovely. It's not so great for this month's sibling post though I'm afraid as I've got no exciting or particularly interesting photos of them together although I do have some ice cream photos to make up for it! ;-)So we … [Read more...]
