Finding the best places to go
About 10 years ago, a family problem shook my whole world. At the time, I was single and living on my own and started struggling to cope. I kept thinking about how I could help/change/solve the issue with my family. My negative thoughts consumed me and I couldn’t focus on the day-to-day or enjoy life.... Continue Reading →
Tucked away inside The Wilson Cheltenham Museum and Art Gallery is a little round tour of local history, quirky objects and a children’s activity area. What a way to spend an hour on a rainy (or sunny!) day with your little ones! Ed and I went one Wednesday morning. The museum has a modern bit... Continue Reading →
This place is a revelation! Mainly because I can’t believe it’s how some people live: driving their Range Rovers to do their weekly organic farm shop, popping into its garden centre for a £30 bunch of flowers and stopping off at the spa for a £110 facial while they put their children in the ‘Seedlings...

I will be doing more indepth reviews of some of the following over the next few months: 1) Pittville Park New playground built.

Nice café. www.sandfordparkslido.org.uk 3) Cheltenham Museum Workshops but also a great... Continue Reading →

This is one of my favourite places to visit in the Cotswolds with Ed. I just love it! There’s the famous Model Village (miniature of Bourton), a fantastic model railway museum that only costs £3 to get in, a river with ducks, a motor museum and a Birdland. I’ve been there at least three times... Continue Reading →
1) Drink coffee in nice cafes with nice stationery and take arty pics of it all on the table. 2) Buy nice flowers... not from Sainsbury's or Aldi but from somewhere where you find nice flowers and take arty close ups. 3) Ditch all your normal real-life friends who don't hang around on social media...

This blogging and drive to get more Instagram followers came after I spent a dreary Sunday, when I probably should have been marking (I'm an English teacher), scrolling through 'popular' glamorous and not so glamorous Instagram accounts. Pretty people who travel and have over 50k followers, people who post pics of macaroons in front of... Continue Reading →
I’m currently trying to tempt Ed away from an obsession with soldiers. He has two older half-brothers and loves their toys more than his own! Ed, however, is also interested in dinosaurs so I’ve been meaning to visit Oxford with him to see the specimens at the wonderful Oxford University Museum of Natural History. “Are...
