Hotel Burn Vs The Port Aventura Mummy Bloggers…

In the day time it looks like an ordinary hotel.

Well ok, except for the black, the cobwebs, and the cute miniature vultures, in the day time it looks like an ordinary hotel.

My blog is having a rest tonight due to it needing to watch True Blood as people keep ringing me it when it’s on.  It has noting to do with me at all, infact, I’m a little bit ashamed of its lacksadaisical attitude.  I mean, it’s so lazy it couldn’t even be bothered to look [...]

My 5 year old niece, cousin ME, has recently discovered a popular local phrase.  If she is hot she announces to anyone who might care to listen,
Cousin ME:  ”Oohhh I’m sweating cobs.”
Charming right?  Nothing wrong with that.  And, when it’s cold she announces,
Miss ME:  ”Brrrr, I’m freezing cobs.”
Equally cute and kind of clever in a [...]

Have been kidnapped and wisked away to Scarborough. Currently being made to watch evil beings dressed as rabbits dancing to Sclub 7. I’m a bit scared but the kids seem ok. Had a fab time in Spain but not sure I will survive this…

Just a quickie post tonight everybody.
Tomorrow, no wait, today I am off to sunny Spain with some fabulous other blogging Mums.

Super Savvy Me, the Giant Pigeon and a Man dressed as a Haddock

I haven’t been to London much.
When I was a kid I had plans to head off to the big city and make my way as a writer.  I’d live in this leaky and yet some how cosy flat, with fifties decoration and an eccentric but loveable old couple next door who’s cat would sometimes poop [...]

Why Mummy Bloggers Are Like He-Man

Miss M:  ”Mummy, you can choose the second story.
Me:  ”Ok.  Thanks babe.”
Miss M:  ”But you have to choose from the Peppa Pig books Mummy.

Me:  ”Ok”
Miss M:  ”And you have to choose from the Peppa Pig books on this side Mummy.”

Me:  ”Oooo kaaaaaay…..”

I have learnt something tonight.
When I am feeling extremely poorly sick.  And my nose is sore, and my lips are throbbing due to the amount of times they have been mistakenly caught in the  hasty clearing up of a snot fountain, and my eyes sting and my ears ring and I ache like a very [...]

Once more I am woken from a restless night by my small girl peering intently at my face with a puzzled expression.
Miss M:  ”Mummy you look funny.”
Me:  ”Do I babe?  It’s probably because I didn’t sleep too well and because of my cold.”
Miss M:  ”Your eyes are all puffy Mummy.”
Me:  Are they?”
Miss M:  ”Yes.  Is [...]
