Dave & I were meant to be spending a week at Newport in Pembrokeshire, Wales this year. However, due to an exciting development in our lives, we decided postpone the trip until next year. But to make things worse – as I was already sad to not be visiting a place that is incredibly close to my heart – my birthday was during that week. So, Dave offered – after I dropped some rather heavy hints! – to plan something for my birthday anyway. Read more “Birthday Surprise to Pembrokeshire, Wales”

One of my closest friends lives in Birmingham and every few months we catch up down my way or up her’s. This month, it was my turn to visit Caz and we decided to have an afternoon tea at The Malmaison.

For our two year anniversary, Dave & I spent a fun day at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo. I’d visited as a child but hadn’t been back since, despite always wanting to. So, with some Tesco Clubcard vouchers to spend, we booked tickets and headed over. Read more “ZSL Whipsnade Zoo”

Today’s post is a bit different to what was initially thought. The original plan was to share some photographs from a Mother’s Day trip to Batsford Arboretum but unfortunately, my Mum was too unwell and we had to postpone. This meant I was left with a sunny day and nothing to do. Read more “Cotswold Wildlife Park”
