No joy!

Sat excitedly in the international arrivals lounge at Manchester Airport eagerly awaiting her daughter, clutching a packet of Percy Pigs as a welcome home gift, we joked with another parent that our joy wouldn’t be matched by our children. What we got, after what seemed like an eternity, when Reagan finally came into view was […]

Mothers day

With Reagan in Poland it was down to Lincoln to make his mommy happy with flowers a card and breakfast in bed.

360 this morning

With Reagan in Poland on a school trip, Jamie in Newcastle upon Tyne speaking at a conference, and Lincoln home alone, I was lying in my hotel bed looking at the 360 app and realised our family has probably never been independently as far away from each other as it is right now. A sure […]

Demolition derby Pt2

Knowing how easy the SDS was going to make dropping the second post I pre- booked a tip spot and set to work. Just like last week, after half an hour I was loading the first load of bricks into the car ready to get rid and barely broke sweat. The weather was great for […]
