Dreaming about holidays.
It’s sort of summer. It must be, I burnt my shoulder going to the dentist last week. That may of course have been it, but you never know. We don’t have a summer holiday planned. We’ve got our Tudor experience coming up, and I can’t quite see past that at the moment. Once we are…
Read 52 – King of Thorns giveaway with a plug for Felixstowe book festival

Read 52: Just Imagine with a What are They Thinking?! giveaway.

Walkers Hoops and Crosses – sponsored review.
Home educating four children means that from time to time we Go Out. On days out I have to do packed lunches for 4no 5 people now. That means two types of bread, three types of fillings, and assorted snacks. Finding snacks that everyone will eat is challenging enough, so I’m always on the hunt…
