Earlier in the year I wrote a post about the characteristics that my children have developed since I started blogging. I guarantee that if you're a blogger and have children of about four upwards then you'll recognise some, if not all of the characteristics I mentioned.I thought I'd share a new one with you today, it's one that they've only developed in the last couple of weeks but it makes me laugh every time I see them doing itI caught them both taking photos of the pancakes they made us for breakfast last week. ;-)By the time they'd positioned them on the plate just right, … [Read more...]
Car Tax – the new, improved way to pay….
This week's #SaveMoneyMonday is all about car tax and the new changes that will affect anyone who needs to tax a car from the 1st October! Not a very exciting subject but still....So, for those of you who don't already know, from the 1st October this year there are big changes to the way that we tax our car - the big one being that we no longer need to display a car tax disc in our cars. It's no longer necessary so when you buy car tax in future, you won't get a tax disc and if you still have time to run on your current tax disc after the 1st October, you can destroy your existing … [Read more...]
Our favourite way to travel….
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...]
