LEJOG Day 4 – We did it!

19/08/201619/08/2016

Despite being given directions at the hotel to the bus stop we still managed to completely miss it and had to ask someone else. It turned out we’d walked straight past it – how both hubby and I had managed to miss the bus shelter and the big yellow BUS STOP on the road when… Read More

LEJOG Day 3 – Perth to Thurso

17/08/2016

My hopes of a lie-in were dashed thanks to hubby forgetting to turn his alarm off from the previous day – and Jessica waking up shortly after it went off. At least I got to take advantage of having some decent wifi signal and catch up on social media and blogging before Sophie also woke… Read More

LEJOG Day 1 – Getting to the start

16/08/201616/08/2016

“We’re going on a ‘venture!” Sophie kept saying as we rushed around getting everything ready to set off towards Land’s End – the starting point for our LEJOG challenge. Unfortunately in the rush, neither hubby nor I noticed that Jessica hadn’t picked up Kerry, her favourite dolly, and it was only when we arrived at… Read More

An afternoon at the beach

15/07/201619/07/2017
The beach at Minehead

Trips to the beach are few and far between for us as a family. We live well over an hour’s drive from the nearest one.  It was therefore one of things I knew we had to do during our holiday at Butlins in Minehead. We nearly didn’t manage it though.  There was so much to… Read More

The Friday Focus – 17/06/16

17/06/201618/06/2016

I’ve been quiet on the blogging and social media front this week as we’ve been enjoying our last term-time family holiday. We started with a weekend in Birmingham (as I needed to be there last Sunday for my HR workshop) before heading down to Butlins in Minehead where we’ve spent the rest of the week. … Read More

Castle Rushen

18/09/201518/09/2015

During our holiday on the Isle of Man, we visited Castle Rushen, which is one of the best preserved medieval castles in Europe. It was built in the late 13th century and was once home to the Kings and Lords of Mann. As well as being a royal residence, the castle has also been used… Read More

Review: Kionslieu Farm Cottages

04/08/201503/08/2015

Most of our holidays over the last couple of years have involved going on road trips around the country, staying in each place for just a night or two. The prospect of staying in one place for several nights sounded blissful when we booked a self-catered cottage at Kionslieu Farm Cottages and we weren’t disappointed… Read More

I'm Louise, mummy of three - Jessica, forever six, who was born with half a heart and lives on in mine; and heart-healthy Sophie (born 2013) and Thomas (born 2018). I blog about living with grief after child loss, crafts, days out and the little moments of family life.
