Spotted! Personalised Mugs. Good Ones.

This is a bit more than a Spotted! item. Sometimes we come across a product that we just happen to love – so we talk about them. I’ve used YourDesign a number of times, and they are unfailingly excellent. The above mug is the (rather ridiculous) one I bought for Fathers day a couple of years ago – and it is still in use every single day. Father Christmas bought one for No.1 son this Christmas – he’s far...

It’s THAT time of year again…

Well, it is, isn’t it? I’m lucky – I married a good’un who thinks about nice flowers on a whim, not because the calendar tells him he ‘must’. But for an awful lot of people (men AND women – yes, yes, I buy him flowers too), 14th February is Where It’s At on the flower diary. And, yes, half the red roses of the world who have been teased and encouraged into believing “yes,...

Stunning Isabella Oliver Luxe Tie Maternity Sweater

Contrary to popular opinion, I am not currently pregnant (yes, sadly, that baby belly is all me, me, me). But fortunately the lovely Nicole (rather unwillingly, as you can imagine) stepped up for us, and offered us the use of her delicious 34 week bump to drape the Isabella Oliver review over… When I was asked to review the Isabella Oliver Luxe Tie Sweater  I immediately went on their website and emailed a picture of it to my...

The Bestest Christmas Gift guide – The Lego Minifigure Display Case. Oh yes.

The Bestest Christmas Gift guide – The Lego Minifigure Display Case. Oh yes.

For me, these are a le-e-e-tle bit pointless. I mean, the whole point of a Lego figure is to play with it, yes? Hmmm. Apparently no. Apparently, that comment is worthy of a most disdainful (and pitying) look, combined with a ve-e—ry pa-ti-en-t explanation  for the dear and aged Mama who doesn’t Get It. Apparently the ONE thing that drives any Lego-er insane is never ever being able to find the right figure. And never being able to...
