Tinker Bell and the Legend of the Neverbeast Review

If you have a small person in the house, it’s likely that you’re already familiar with the Tinkerbell series of films, the group of Fairy friends from Pixie Hollow. The Legend of the Neverbeast is the latest, and was released on DVD today – which naturally meant a Tinkerbell Family Film Night as we sat down to enjoy it (though I admit the teen boys made their apologies and escaped elsewhere before the starting...

Let’s talk about sex, baby… (and win a luxury hotel break for two…)

I’ve been married for rather  a long time now. I got married in *cough*  1992 – waaaay back when I was just a mere child of 18. Yet somehow, here we are about to hit our 23 year anniversary (and 25 years together!), and are still sickeningly content together; clearly we’re getting something right along the way. When we were planning our wedding, we had to go and chat to the minister of our church. He told us...

When nostalgia comes knocking…

Watching my No.1 son tower over me (which is no mean feat when your Mum stands almost 6′ in her socks), I can’t help but heave a sigh of nostalgia. I know we all say it, but how does it happen? How is it that you turn around twice, and that small blonde giggling boy who’s got “Lotsa Jobs Ter Do, Mummy” is now 6’1″, tripping over his size 12 feet, and terrifying you in the night when he looms...
