Cartwheeling with a Toys R Us Giraffe

La famille Beaufoix has a new role.  Or is it have a new role?
Anyway it is very serious and important and fabulous and one we plan to fulfill to the best of our abilities.
It will be tough.
There may be hard times, tears, squabbles, possibly even bruises, but we will soldier on because we live to [...]

I Wish My Rabbit Would Stop Eating the Furniture

Having spent the evening attempting to upload a podcast (bum, b*gger, butt monkeys, arse biscuits) I have given up and am now exercising the rabbit (the sweet fluffy kind and not, erm, anything else) and settling in to watch Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince on my new Xbox 360 Elite which I have [...]

Disney Blu Ray brings you Last Minute Prezzies and I bring you Exploding Cow Farts

Having been stuck in the house with no car and rather a lot of snow over the last couple of days, Misses E, M, and I have been partaking of some movie goodness.
All you need is a sofa, a TV, a DVD/Blu-Ray player, at least one small and one large bottom, (I have one large [...]

Gifts for the Ex

I have a question.
What do you get for the man in your life who is no longer ‘the man’ in your life but who will always be the man in your kids’ lives?
I’ve been putting this off a little I think, but with 9 sleeps till Christmas it’s definitely about time I got off my [...]

Aladdin at the Mansfield Palace Theatre

I have to admit, it’s a long time since I visited my local Panto.  Mad really, as when I was little we went pretty much every year and I loved it.  The thing is, our last attempt at Pantomime fun was thwarted by a 35 week pregnant Ms Beaufoix falling down the stairs and breaking [...]

To Wii or not to Wii…and Pictures of Nice Men

I’ve gone all posh.
No really.
I never thought it would happen, but I now have staff, a personal trainer to be exact!  He’s tall, pale, sort of interesting looking in a weirdly two dimensional way and he’s on call anytime I want him.  He’s polite, encouraging, fit (obviously), and he doesn’t poke me in my flabby [...]

I was going to write a review in this post.
I was going to write a review about a HP Photosmart Premium Fax All in One that I have been given
I was going to be honest, as I always am, while attempting to make it entertaining as, let’s face it, reviews are often more than a little [...]

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.
And it’s very popular with the guests, I mean, some of them come back year after year, even though it costs 240 euros a [...]

Say ‘Boo’ to the best Disney Blu Ray film yet

It’s dark and warm.  There is a small head lying against my neck, another resting on my shoulder, both within kissing distance, which I take advantage of as we snuggle up close and watch the film.  I love moments like this.  Where we’re totally relaxed and comfortable.  Where there’s no other agenda but to have [...]

Disney Blu-Ray’s High School Musical v Beverly Hills Chihuahua

Erm yes, I’m pitting these two against each other.
Why?
Well, because according to Miss E and Miss M they’re on a parr.
They like them both, equally.
The cute dogs are as fabulous as the cute kids.
The cool outfits are as fabulous as, well, the cool outfits.
The choreography and musical numbers…are as good as the yappy barking.
So my [...]
