Annie-Mo
Little lady is a little miserable but seems to be on the road to recovery, thank goodness. Just in time for her big sister’s birthday tomorrow.
Annie-Mo
Annie-Mo is poorly. She is hot and bothered and sad and very cuddley. I think it may be her teeth again. Today, much of it was spent on the sofa with her, snuggling. The others also took the opportunity to cosy in too, which was lovely. Jay regaled us with some new jokes he has learned. Here is one I… Read more →
Good Friday
We had a lazy day today but also quite social. We visited the children’s grandparents and were treated to hotcross buns and pink wafers. Sophie was in her element as she loves pink wafers, and when the blue ribands were brought out I think she nearly popped with happiness. Felix slowly ate his own body weight in hotcross buns. When… Read more →

McArthur Glen

She used to talk about the damage other leading shoe manufacturers did to growing… Read more →
Sophie at the park
Sophie loves the bars at the park up Harlow hill.
Siblings
The children are winding each other up today. Each one is finely tuned to the others sensitive issues and is mercilessly agitating them and then complaining when their sibling reacts in an unpleasant manner. I have no siblings. I cannot understand why anyone would want to annoy, hit or be rude to anyone else. Apparently it’s all completely normal. Currently… Read more →
The Stray
Today the children and I picniced with a friend and her boys on the Stray. The Stray is an area of grass measuring 200acres square running through Harrogate. It belongs to the local residents and as such cannot be built on or used for anything not community based. The Stray always must measure 200 acres so if one section of… Read more →
