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...]
An artistic field trip thanks to Nintendo….
Ever since we were asked to be Nintendo family bloggers at the start of the year we've been lucky enough to receive some brilliant parcels through the post from them.So far, Master Frugal's favourite delivery by far has been Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U which is even better than the previous versions of Mario Kart Wii with new power ups and new characters along with options to customise your karts. The game play is more fun too and even I manage to complete a course without falling off the track a million times like I used to. I love Mario Kart 8 better than the others because you go … [Read more...]
Review: Cayton Bay Holiday Park….
A few weeks ago we were asked if we wanted to have a lovely weekend away with Park Resorts. It sounded like a great idea to have a cheeky weekend away before the madness of the last few weeks of term hit us so we said yes, chose the lovely sounding Cayton Bay Holiday Resort in North Yorkshire and set off on our travels one rainy Friday at the start of July. We're not usually bothered by the weather so the rain didn't really worry us - we just packed wellies and rain coats along with the scooters and the Summer Bag.Before I start, I don't have as many photos as I would usually have to … [Read more...]

#WeLoveWales – by Miss and Master F….
In the two week's school holiday last month we went to Wales. We've never been to Wales before so we were very excited.After that, we stayed in a castle (Ruthin Castle.) At the castle,we saw some peacocks 3 males and 5 female.The males were trying to impress the women by showing their feathers and shaking them. We helped a member of staff feed them bread and they ate out of our hands. We liked that bit.The room was amazing, however, did you know we had our own room. It was right next door to Mam and Dad's room and we watched a cop show on the TV but then Mam … [Read more...]
#WeLoveWales – Our Day at Llyn Brenig….
I love travelling and exploring new places with the kids and we try to get away as often as our budget allows us to which isn't nearly as often as we like if I'm honest!As I've said a few times, we're planning to spend more time travelling in the UK over the next few years rather than going abroad so when we were invited to visit Wales for a few days last month we jumped at the chance. There are so many beautiful areas in our country that we want to explore and although we'd never been to Wales before, it's somewhere that we've said lots of times that we'd like to visit.Miss … [Read more...]
