Dressing for the snow
“Theres no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing”. Its something my granny used to say to us when we were younger and staying with her in Ireland. In true Londonder style, we would complain about Ireland being too cold, too wet and frankly, too uncertain. I always thought my granny made this sayingContinue reading “Dressing for the snow”
Treasure Trail Maps – Review
We are really missing our days out. They are a huge coping mechanism for me personally to balance out my work and frankly, the monotony of lockdown has really started to take its toll.

Osmo Review
We have been fans of Osmo now for a little while and have quite an extensive collection. But truth be told I came across Osmo a few years ago and although Ita was too young at the time, I always remembered seeing the different sets and thinking how fun they looked. I had wondered ifContinue reading “Osmo Review”

Christmas Photo Spots in London
Yesterday afternoon I posted some pictures to my stories of our walk around London. It prompted quite a few responses and all with the same theme, how beautiful London was looking in its festive attire and how I capture lovely photos of Ita in London.

Ita has had this playhouse now for around 3 and ½ years as it wasContinue reading “Ita’s playhouse (The Snug from Waltons)”
