1) I bought a couple of Christmas gifts that I found reduced massively from about £8 to £1. I can't tell you what they are because blogs have ears but they're going to make a great addition to a little beauty hamper I'm making for Miss Frugal for Christmas Eve.2) I've been exercising lately, like real exercise that makes your face go red and your heart beat faster and I know, I'm just as shocked as you are. After we cleared out the garage and bought a few bits of exercise equipment for the kids I thought I'd give it a go myself and I'm pleased to report that I'm managing to do between 3 … [Read more...]

80 ideas for family fun this Autumn!
I feel like I share this post with you all every year but it's only because I update it with new ideas every year - it started off life called 50 ideas for family fun this Autumn, then went to 60, then 70 and now I've updated it so it's 80 ideas for family fun this Autumn. ;-)After all of the fun and adventures that we’ve had over the Summer, it’s easy to just sit back in September and do pretty much nothing other than snuggle on the settee and relax.

Every year for the past four or five years we've visited the brilliant Festival of Thrift. Here's what we thought of this year's festival....The Festival of Thrift has been held every year for the last four or five years and I've been going since the second year it was held so it feels like a bit of an annual event now. It's quite a hard event to describe but the idea behind the festival is that it's the UK's first large-scale festival of sustainable living and every year it just seems to be getting bigger and more successful.It's such an eclectic mix of stalls, workshops and … [Read more...]
