Cheap Easy Garden Games – The Minute To Win It Garden Challenges (I mostly failed)

Looking for some Cheap Easy Garden Games? Last week we had one of the most fun afternoons we’ve had in a very long time. All it took? Some biscuits, some pencils, some ping pong balls and some cotton wool – plus various crockery and kitchen pots. I know, it sounds like a ghastly cooking experiment, but I promise, it was SO much fun. Take notes, because this is exactly what you need in your reserves when you’ve got...

FREE Food. Yes – we said FREE.

Sigg Bottles. Just a Brilliant childs Flask.

We LOVE Sigg bottles. And when I say ‘we’, I don’t just mean the grown ups round here. No, the four smaller-but-in-charge-really people LOVE Sigg bottles. We started off with this uber-cute little 0.3l bottle for Pink to take to pre-school. She LOVED it, and all the mums were oooh-ing at it in the crate. But as she headed towards proper school we found it was just too small to last all day for her, so now she has the...

Camp Bestival. Oh how we do love thee.

 We couldn’t make Camp Bestival this year – so we sent our intrepid roving reporter WitWitWoo. Who quite frankly did a better job than we would have done. She camped and EVERYTHING. This is her account of her first ever festival – grab a coffee before you start, you may be here some time… I have officially made it back from my first ever camping trip in one piece.  Quite frankly, I surprised even myself...

Brittany Ferries – would you?

Well, yes we would, actually. When we booked our Keycamp holiday, the provided travel arrangements were a straightforward Dover-Calais crossing. Which is fine, of course. Except it’s a 3+ hour drive for us along the cost to Dover. Then the crossing. Then another 6 or so hours back down the length of France to where we wanted to be. We know from last year that this is bad enough going out – but at the end of the holiday,...

‘When LittleStuff went to Legoland (and rode on the Atlantis Submarine Voyage)

Yesterday we headed off to Windsor, in the rain, to try out the new Atlantis Submarine Voyage. After the soggy dash across the car park (did I mention it was raining?) we queued with the other journalists, bloggers and celebrities asked to come and try it out (Alex from Cbeebies was very lovely to Pink-the-4yr-old, and yes I should have been less polite and just asked for a photograph with her), and then skidded our way down the hill...
