Popped over to visit my Mum last week, their garden is just incredible at the moment and there’s so much wildlife (including the three year old!!)…

Cultured Kids #47
Anyone else feel like they are slowly drowning in things to remember, places to be, and what your offspring absolutely need to have with them at this time of year? I am sure it’s not just me? I always seem to struggle in these last few countdown weeks to the summer holidays and inevitably forget […]
Monday Photo – Morning World
We seem to be going with Monday Photos rather than Sunday photos right now… This photo was taken last weekend after a family party that proved interesting weatherwise…
Sunday Photo – Embrace Peace
We were lucky to stumble across the unveiling of this statue to celebrate the 75th anniversary of D Day at our recent Mary Rose visit. Unconditional Surrender, or Embrace Peace as it’s otherwise known (by Seward Johnson) is of course based on the famous photograph taken in Times Square, but the striking statue wasn’t […]
The Ship Wreck Explorers – The Mary Rose

The Three-Year-old wasn’t earthside for a start (so this technically wasn’t his first visit!), and I remember being very grateful for the cool and darkened corridors (plus the places to sit and rest!) as I waddled from one […]
Sunday Photo – Taking in the View – Wales
Taking in the view (and his wellies off!) at our Welsh holiday cottage… I am going to miss this!
Sunday Photo – Country Mouse
a tiny country mouse we spotted at Alresford Watercress Festival last weekend. As intrigued by us as we were with him…
Residenz – Munich
There are things that will forever remind me of our other homes. Now, whenever I see a dahlia, I automatically think of Denmark. To be honest, I wasn’t fond of them before we moved there, they weren’t that fashionable at the time in the UK, and most people associated them with old people’s gardens… […]
Sunday Photo – Giant Oak
I think this has to be the biggest oak tree I have ever seen, it takes four of us to join hands around its trunk. Luckily we get to hug it often as it belongs to my sister…
Market Day – Winchester
Long term readers will already know how much I love a market – especially one that involves food! I spent hours in Copenhagen’s Torvehallerne, and you would find me most weeks (usually getting told off for picking something or other up) wandering Munich’s beautiful Viktualienmarkt… Whilst we don’t have anything quite on that scale in […]
