Yesterday I read an article about Disney’s Cinderella Exhibition Presented By Swarovski. Straight away I booked some tickets to the free exhibition as my daughter loves Cinderella and we’re going to see the film next week. Disney’s Cinderella Exhibition is the official exhibition of costumes and props from the new film, which is directed by…

Monday happy things
My list of things making me happy is quite shallow this week – – Last week I went to the Hobbycraft press show (on my own!). It’s not often that the children are both looked after and I’m invited to something I want to go to but it all worked out for once. I picked…
The Necropolis Railway
Last weekend we had a really lovely day out. The sun was shining and we had a day with nothing urgent to do so we headed out to tick off some places from our never-ending list of places we want to visit. I’ve mentioned before about the Magnificent Seven, the name given to the 7…

Another Monday and today is definitely the last day of our Christmas holiday. My husband is already back at work and I am (mentally at least) prepared for the nursery/school run/station drop off first thing tomorrow morning.

This weekend we were invited to a preview of Get Santa, a festive film which is out on December 5th. It features some brilliant British actors such as Jim Broadbent, Rafe Spall, Joanna Scanlan and…
On my mantel – September
I love reading Tales from a Happy House and how her mantel charts the seasons in her house. When I saw her invitation to join in I knew I had to, albeit a little last minute as usual. Our fireplace is pretty nasty but I love the mantel in our living room, it’s a real…
Living the London Life
A couple of week ago I treated myself to a trip to the Cath Kidston flagship store at 180 Piccadilly. I say treated myself because I know I can never visit without buying something! I like all the stores, I’ve visited a few *ahem* but the flagship store is my favourite. Despite being in a…
