Liberty at Target? Really? OK Target, you’ve finally got my attention.
I’m not a huge Target fan. It’s too big, too overwhelming and I just feel completely lost when I’m there. Plus, I end up buying a whole lot of cheap stuff that I don’t need. It’s that ‘Holiday’ area that always gets me. At the [...]

There’s a group of people in Balboa who climb on things, hang off lamp posts, stand on cars and fences, jump on walls and railings. This kind of behaviour would normally be frowned upon, be given a second glance and perhaps a glare. But here, down at the beach, it’s accepted, it’s a necessity. How [...]

It is 10pm and my boys are still full of energy.
Today they skied for six hours. And they didn’t just ski down runs. They’ve discovered a liking for trees, moguls, terrain parks, anything they can find which will provide an obstacle or two. I try and keep up but am resigned to the fact that [...]

So, we’re set, nothing else to do.
In the middle of our Valentine’s [...]

I taught my sons a new word this week – faff.
My husband and my youngest son faff about. There is no other word that properly describes it. They are incapable of walking out the door without faffing. My oldest son and I do not faff. We leave at exactly the time required and arrive at [...]

I’ve been fired from Valentine’s Day duty this year. Last year I failed, miserably. I had absolutely no idea it was such a big holiday at school. I dropped the boys off on 14th February, said goodbye and went home.
When I picked the boys up at the end of the day, they came sprinting out [...]
