It's Mollie Makes time again.

It's one of my favourite times of the month. I realised this afternoon that I had taken my eye off the ball. Mollie Makes was due out and I had not realised.

I grabbed my purse, keys and rushed down to the newsagents down the town. Last month they had five copies at 9am, surely some would still be there at 5pm. Phew, one left.
This visit cost me 11 quid as my 7 year old daughter came with instructions also from her wee brother to get him a magazine too.

So here I find myself, oohh, forgot to mention how excited I was when I read on twitter that Kirstie Allsop has a new home made home series coming out in two weeks. The best bit is that the Christmas special is in New York. My three favourite things. I love New York sooooooo much.

Anyway, I'm settling down to read Mollie Makes, helped along by a cup of tea and some New York cheesecake. Yum.

Thanks for reading.x

Randoms and Take That.

I said I would try and blog regularly and I shall. I've had a busy wee week what with sports day, shopping for crafty supplies and of course Take That.


Yes, I did go to see them at Hampden but no, I didn't thrown out or fall over drunk and miss a single iota of their hunkiness. I was the driver ( from a station not near hampden) and had two sisters to steer to the bus/train/car.

The concert was amazing. What more can I say.

Anyway, my wee girl spotted this while we were walking back to the car from school. We thought it was cute and it just made us smile.


I'm off back to bed, it's my weekend of night shifts.

Thanks for reading, I would love to know if anyone does, haha.

Healthy week

This week you find us trying to be healthy. At the kids school they have named this week health week and all week they will be running a 'walking bus'. As we drive to school as staying in a different town we drove to the walk point and joined the walking bus from there. It was a lovely change and the kids were all chirping away and holding hands as they trotted up to the school.

My daughter had her dance show and the sight of all those girls dancing, so fit and full of energy has encouraged me to do more exercise. Maybe going to try some more zumba, I like dancing and it's not too bad to follow. I can always try the DVD if I'm too embarrassed in the classes.

I wonder what all of you are doing to be healthy just now?

Trying new things

Having one computer in the house which four people are eager to use often presents problems. Which is why I don't blog that much but have loads of photos. I'm going to try sending this from my iPhone with a wee pic and see if it works. Fingers crossed.
