Shuffle Challenge – What’s on my playlist

I was tagged by Louise who blogs at My Three and Me to take part in the Shuffle the music challenge. Music is a big part of my life, I listen to it every single day. When I’m cooking, cleaning, working and walking, I have music on. I’ve had a Spotify account for quite a while now, and I love making playlists on there. I have them for different genres and moods. For this challenge I decided to put on my All Sorts playlist, which is mostly 90’s/00’s pop and rock. It’s…

Snailspace Art Trail Brighton & Hove

When we moved here in 2016 the city was full of snow dog statues. We later found out it was an art trail raising money for a local hospice. Martlets provide hospice care to those suffering from terminal illness. Once the trail ended the dogs were auctioned off raising over £300k for the hospice.

However now the holidays are coming to an end and this week sees a big change for us all. She is starting reception…

Planning for a holiday abroad

It’s the summer holidays and it seems like we are the only ones not going away. However at the end of the summer Jesse has a week off and we had talked about booking something last-minute. So I’ve been having a sneaky look to see if I can find any good deals online. Whenever I start to think about a holiday my mind instantly goes into planning mode. I always write a list of destinations, and then set about researching them. I like to see what attractions and landmarks are…
