Scooters are a big thing in our house right now!When the sun's out, you can be guaranteed that there'll be at least one (usually both) of my children playing out with their friends on their scooter and I regularly have to climb over a pile of scooters in the hallway to answer the door to more scooter riding children calling for mine. We even store the scooters in the back of the car so we always have them with us and we've taken them on every break away that we've had for the last year or so.I've just done a quick search in my photos for any that are scooter related and I found loads … [Read more...]
Summer Living Room Makeover….
We've been having a bit of a Summer makeover this weekend, updating the Living room with a few little bits and bobs to brighten it up for Summer and I'm really pleased with the results so I thought you might like to see them.I like to keep the decor itself quite neutral usually which allows me to change things around without a big redecorating project and without spending a lot.

He even told me that he thought he would be bullied when he got to senior school because of it and his face was so sad that I wanted to cry for him.It's playing on his mind at the moment … [Read more...]
Fashion Friday – Where to find bargains online….
Last week, I shared the results of our charity shop shopping trip with you and if you had chance to read it, I think you'll agree that we got a lot for our money.I've also shared in the past the results of our ebay shopping exploits which were almost as successful as we bought a Topshop playsuit, a Boohoo dress and a River Island dress - all for about £13. They've been worn lots so were great value for what we paid for them!But where else can you find bargains if you need some new clothes?I have a few sites that I keep an eye on....SocialDiscountNetwork - Can be quite … [Read more...]
