Ragtales – Beautiful Toys with a Beautiful Story
AS you can imagine, we have been sent a LOT of of soft toys over the years. I once tried to add up the value of all the soft toys in the daughter’s then-five-yr-old bedroom. It frankly made my eyes water. We’ve been sent toys by the biggest high street giants, and tiny little handmade gems by Etsy sellers. We’ve got a 5′ rabbit (named FluffyWully. Don’t ask.), and an entire house full of small Maileg...
VANS Brigata Mens Coriander | Father’s Day Gift Ideas
I know – it’s not your usual Father’s Day Gift. But how much do you love a new pair of shoes for the season? And what makes you think the man in your life would feel any different?

Sending Flowers Internationally with FloraQueen | Review
I have a very dear friend who lives a very long way away – far too far away for me to pop in for a coffee with when she’s in need. I’ve been promising flowers to her for a very long time. Recently she’s had more than her fair share of rubbishness, and I felt the time had come to actually send her some real life daisies, rather than the cyber picture kind. So when Floraqueen asked if they could send me a...
Free checks on ANY child car seat during Child Safety Week – and 5% off ANY car seat | Halfords discount code
Free car seat checks on ANY car – and 5% Halfords discount code if you need a new child’s car seat. When my hulking great 16yr old was a weeny boy, car seats were a completely different animal. By the time he started school at age 4, he and his friends were all just sitting on a booster cushion, which was usually the toddler car seat with the back removed. Don’t you suck your teeth in horror – we were doing the...
Qualcast Self Propelled Petrol Rotary Key Start Lawn Mower Review
Blue loves a bit of long grass… I am not known for my lawn mowing prowess. In fact, since The Finger Incident (it’s a long tale … but basically I stuck my hand into a lawnmower. While it was running. Consequently I consider myself lucky to have just one finger that’s a bit shorter now…), there is by common agreement a family injuction preventing me from going within 5 feet of the thing. But the evil old...
Toasted To the Top with Breville’s Warburton Toaster
Toast. What on earth would we do without toast, eh? Ever since my first pregnancy 16 years ago, I haven’t been able to face milky cereal for breakfast. Just… no. No no no. But a hot strong mug of choice (tea or coffee, as the mood takes me. I know, I’m a rebel.) accompanied by a couple of slices of your finest crunchy bread? Now THAT’S a breakfast for kings. But it’s never a boring same-ole-same-ole...
