Yay for INSET day! :D
I’m so looking forward to today, for a few reasons. 1 – It’s Friday. Normally the last school day of the week. Meaning that coming up are two lovely days of spending time with my little people without interruption, agenda, need to be anywhere, and enjoy each other’s company. Wonderful. 2 – Know what makes this weekend even better? It’s…

Although I’ designed my own tattoos before, I knew not much about creating “flash” for an artist, so it was a bit of a daunting task!

The World Is Moving Forwards.
You know what made me smile, today? Seeing two guys, maybe early 30s, walking along, holding hands, relaxed, confident, smiling, very much in love, and NOT being attacked, ridiculed, or abused in any way. In fact I saw many people smile at them as they walked past, myself included. What a long way we have come in this small town,…

Blood Doesn’t Grow on Trees.
I am so proud that my mum was one of the knitters involved in this super special yarn bomb. See more beautiful images of this awesome ‘bomb’ here.

This is Sir Winston. He’s a beautiful Bassett Hound. He’s the colour of Thornton’s Special Toffee and probably twice as popular. He is not just a dog. He’s not even just a royal dog. He’s the most brilliantly aloof and awesome companion to Carmen and Keith, two of the loveliest people on the face of…
