I am once more a Twit

Wednesday, September 30, 2009

I’m back The lovely, charming, intelligent, attractive, kind, fabulous and ’smelling of chocolate, rose petals marshmallows and beautiful handbags’ people at Twitter have allowed me to tweet once more as myself. Apparently they missed me so much that all it took was a couple of jaffa cakes and a flash of my petticoats for them to open [...]

You don’t have to bow. No really. And I won’t expect you to call me ‘Maam’, or ‘Your Majesty’, in fact I may not even take on the title of ‘Princess’ though Misses E and M may have something to say about that. And if any of you curtsey, or do that thing where your head has to [...]

Just back from an amazing stay in London courtesy of Disney and the Think Parents group. I tried to blog from my google phone last night but for some reason I could only add titles and tags, no actually text. Weird. Any ideas anyone?

On the day that it is revealed a teacher from my old school is being held over an assault on a 14 year old student that has left the child with serious head injuries, (so sad), we also discovered a close friend’s asthmatic 5 year old was being treated for Swine Flu. Then we received [...]

I want you to do something for me. I promise there are no Space Pirates involved this time. You see, at Chez Beaufoix today we are having a sing song. We are having a sing song because I have some good news and am choosing to reveal it through the medium of music and [...]

It’s been a bit of an emotional day. Miss M is full of cold and has been kind of clingy to the extent that she didn’t want to go to Daddy’s. Mr B gave her a huge cuddle then left with Miss E, while I put my ‘to do’ list on hold and snuggled my [...]

We’re gearing up to another weekend of madness at chez Beaufoix. My lovely landlady is having a new boiler installed so tomorrow, said boiler, and some extremely long gas pipes, are being delivered ready for installation on Friday. What this means is that when Miss E gets home from school I will already have spent [...]

I’ll let you in to a secret. I should be in Florida right now. I should be staying at a fabulous hotel in Disneyland, alongside 7 other UK bloggers, courtesy of Mickey Mouse. I should be savouring the delights of sampling a holiday that is apparently accessible to families on all budgets. I’d have been [...]

This is a bit of an experiment. Not in the test tubes and bunsen burners kind of way, but in the ‘Mr B set up my wireless for me’ kind of way. So, I’m actually outside in my back garden. I’m not sure how far into the garden this will work, but I’m hoping I can actually [...]
