In my defence I had just been and done something that I have not done in over three years, so before babies and before current reduction in clothes size, I got the ladies measured, the boobies looked at, the twins sorted out. Like this?Read more… Recommended by Motherhood or Madness
Times have changed. No longer the school harvest festival involves rows of children ‘singing’ “We plough the fields and scaaaaaaaatter, the good seed on the laaaaaand” or “Raiiise the glori’us ‘arvest ‘ome” with parents seeing the event as the perfect opportunity to palm off the overgrown marrow or glut of other home-grown vegetables to some [...]

Lush Cosmetics I love Lush. Possibly beyond the realms of what is normal. If I ever got the chance to work with them, I’d be on it like a bonnet. So I was very very pleased when they launched Emotional Brilliance. If you pop into a Lush shop, they have a wheel with all sorts [...]
On Friday night you may have seen me tweeting with the #MadBlogAwards hashtag. Now, I’m guessing that the parent bloggers among you might have half an idea of what I was talking about, but for those of you not familiar with the awards, the MAD blog awards celebrate parent blogging and hand out fabulous prizes to [...]

The drive from Ferring towards the main part of Worthing, is one of my favourites, looking over the grassy area rising to the (mostly) pristine [...]

I’ve got loads of tutorials saved, just waiting for me to get around to trying them. But, when it came to a tutorial for the 30 Days of Untrieds I figured I’d go with what (or, in this case, who) I know. I decided to follow Lucie’s tutorial for a fishtail mani. Like this?Read more… [...]
I’m totally hooked on the supernatural. Paranormal romance is my guilty pleasure and I’m known to lust after dark and beautiful creatures such as Eric Northman and Damon Salvatore. If I’d been really clever I’d have managed to get both of those yummies on my nails. Like this?Read more… Recommended by Glowstars.net
