It’s been a while since we shared what we’re reading but we recently received a lovely copy of the brand new The Tale of Kitty In Boots by Beatrix Potter. The manuscript by Beatrix Potter was rediscovered two years ago when Jo Hanks, publisher at Penguin Random House Children’s, stumbled across an out-of-print literary history…
I’m starting to see photos of my friends’ children on their first day of school on Facebook which means our summer holidays are also coming to an end. Thankfully my son isn’t starting Year 2 until Tuesday and my daughter is doing mornings only at Reception for a couple of weeks until she goes full…

We’ve finally been able to leave London behind and visit family and friends in Devon. We come a couple of times each year so always have our favourite places to re-visit around Exeter. This year we stayed in a fab hotel in central Exeter which was a great base for exploring the city. The weather…
I find it hard to believe how long we’ve lived in our house. It’s definitely not our forever home but that doesn’t mean we don’t want to create a happy home environment.
