Welcome to my blog. It is updated weekly with pictures and projects from our homeschool - maybe you can find something to inspire you :) I have a (no longer updated) materials page elsewhere on my website and will, occasionally, post my homemade materials in this blog.

I'm married to Tim (delivery driver and gorgeous musician), have 2 daughters, live on the south coast of the UK and have 1 aging cat (Hemmingway or Hemmy for short). I love reading, yoga, crafts, baking, daft old comedies, music and teaching.

NOTE ON PICTURES: This shouldn't be necessary but I have, sadly, noticed growing cases. Please DO NOT link directly to pictures on this website - it steals my bandwidth and is BAD! I CAN trace you if you do and I will take action.

Yuck!

Tim and I have been going around feeling VERY peculiar today. Last night, we enjoyed a rather lovely chicken and broccoli pasta bake for dinner with a couple of glasses of wine. Now, when I say a couple, I do mean a couple however, we both ended the evening feeling a bit plastered (i.e like we'd sunk a LOT more). It was all very odd.

Anyway, I woke first this morning honestly feeling extremely hung-over and, more worryingly, with very blurred vision. This was, in fact, so bad that I ended up having to wear my glasses (which, anyone who knows me well enough will know, I avoid at all costs). Then Tim got up and said he felt a bit weird and hung-over too! Ye gods! What the hell was going on?!

I know what you're thinking .. "oh yeah, couple of glasses eh? .... very good, pull the other one". I SWEAR that was all it was!

My brother came over and said perhaps the wine was "off" and this is what Tim and I were thinking even though it tasted absolutely fine at the time. *Shrugs* well weird!

Due to all this, we didn't do a lot today - I just made some flapjacks (needed the sugar me thinks) and we played Nintendo and drank lots of tea.

Only one more day to go before I can check to see what the outcome of the school application was ........ I can barely contain my excitement .........
