Pippa at A Mother’s Ramblings has tagged me in the latest meme to reveal what I would sing at karaoke! I’ve never sung karaoke in my life but if I ever had some dutch courage and got up to sing it would have to be Everybody’s Changing by Keane. I listened to this song constantly…
The day the toddler and I Built a Bear
My son and I were invited to the Covent Garden Build A Bear store to see for ourselves the magic that goes into building a bear. So this morning we hopped on the tube and walked out into the beautiful sunshine at Covent Garden. The staff at the Covent Garden were incredibly friendly and helpful…
