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….

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...]

Tell us a story – The final installment….
A while ago, Laura from Tired Mummy of Two started a story and the idea was that every day someone else would write the next part of the story and so on until we got to the end. Well, today is the last part of the story and it's my turn to finish it up. Have a read of the other bits of the story before you read mine and then let me know what you think of the ending - I'm pretty sure it won't end the way you think it will or the way you want it too but I do like a bit of a twist.... Yesterday Jayne from Mums the Word left the story like this: Laura thought for a moment, the events of … [Read more...]
