5 Great Gift Ideas for Father’s Day*
SOME LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE You may or may not be aware that next month is Fathers Day! As I’m saving hard I’m already on the look out for the right sort of gift to get my old man. It’s so hard when he’s been a dad for 27 years, he has EVERYTHING! Last month was his birthday and I resorted to buying him something while I was in the US! My dad doesn’t have any hobbies really (aside from the pub or falling asleep at the TV) which makes it really hard to buy for him. He doesn’t play sports, or read, or…

Walt Disney World April 2015, Day 7 – Magic Kingdom
I’ve taken a little bit of a break from my holiday diary as none of my readers seemed to be finding them of interest. But as I really want to have a reminder of what we got up to, I’m going to continue. Day 7, only three to go. We spent all of our 7th day in our favourite park, Magic Kingdom. I have to admit that the Sunday signaled the beginning of 4 very magical days. I mean our whole holiday was magical but by the Sunday, we really were rolling in pixie dust! Here’s what we got up to; We started the morning at Be Our Guest for…

First Impressions With Dermalogica
Wow, it has been ages since I did any sort of beauty post, but today I have one all about my first impressions of Dermalogica. A brand I’d heard plenty about but I’d never tried myself until I was offered the chance. My main reason for accepting the chance to try out Dermalogica is because if i’m brutally honest, my skin is a bloody mess and has been since last August. While I was in the states in the middle of summer, something strange happened to my skin, it went from being sensitive dry to sensitive oily. I have never ever had oily skin but for some reason when I…

Doing Walt Disney World (& Orlando) on a Budget
As I mentioned in my shake up post the other day, I’m going to try and only blog about things that I genuinely want to share and spend time promoting. This morning I woke up and wanted to write a post on doing an Disney World holiday on a budget. I think one of my reasons for feeling so lost after coming back off holiday was not having a trip to plan. Our trip in September is a whole lot less structured (at least until we get to 30 days out) so doesn’t require the planning my first trip did. Because of that I have nothing to focus my holiday…

The Great Blog Shake Up
Every once in a while us bloggers become uninspired and complacent, am I right? I have been blogging for over 2 & a half years and since coming back from holiday I’ve hit a bit of a wall. I’d taken on a lot of freelance work before my trip to ensure I had plenty of dollars and if I’m honest, I completely burnt myself out as far as writing is concerned. While on holiday I didn’t blog at all and it felt good, so good that when I came back I still didn’t feel very inspired to write anything other than my holiday diary. But as those posts wore on…

Walt Disney World April 2015, Day 6 – Epcot
It’s been a few days since I shared the next day of my Florida holiday diary! As time went on I took more photos and other people took photos for me, so narrowing them down to enough that it will share the whole day but will also not kill everyone’s browsers is becoming harder and harder. Having an instagram account just to share LM’s adventures has become a godsend for gradually sharing all the photos.. I can’t believe in a month it almost has 1000 followers! Anyway, our 6 day was our day at Epcot. In hindsight we could have got more done but LM took a long nap in…
