Supporter

Reagan is guarded but if you allow her to talk about how hard she is working she will tell you she is doing her to pass as many GCSEs as she can, I only want her to do her best because that’s enough. She is learning to play the piano which is a nice break […]

Spilled milk

If you spill milk and clean it up there are no consequences you just spilled milk but if you continually spill stuff and walk away leaving others to hopefully sort out your stuff you will feel smug for a while that fools just clean up after you, but one day when the fools are no […]

CCTV

After “acquiring” an NVR that has sat by my feet for a couple of years I got a bee in my bonnet to see if I could get it working so bought a PoE camera and give it go. I was surprised how easy it was once I had factory reset the NVR it was […]

Momday

Today was back to normal, Lincoln got up for school at 6am I heard the cat at 07:02 so got up and fed the little fucker hoping to allow Jamie and Reagan chance to sleep in. I got home at 07:40 to find Mom in the kitchen searching for her fix of coffee so no […]

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.

Mothers day

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

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 […]

Hilton reputation?

To say “I’m staying at the Hilton” would be a flex for me a big look at me because I think the Hilton brand is special a bit up there to aspire to, but tonight my opinion has changed if the Hampton by Liverpool John Lennon is what the rest are like! Quite honestly I […]

Its got to be new…

I hope I’m with Reagan at that moment when she realises how hard it is to earn enough money to buy something she really really wants but has to prioritise buying something she needs instead. Tonight she ‘needed’ to go to Boots in Crewe to get liquid items small enough pass through airport security tomorrow […]

First cut is the deepest

Reagan offered to take Billy for a walk this evening because it had been such a nice day and still really nice at 5pm too. I had been wanting to mow the lawns all week but evenings are busy so it was going to have to wait until the weekend but not having to prioritise […]
