I miss my Dad every day but I miss him the most in I miss my Dad every day but I miss him the most in November. 

He loved mornings like this, out walking his dog with the fog on the hills. He told me once that the day I was born the fog was so thick he could grab it and feel it fold around him. He said that is the best metaphor for being a parent. The fog is so thick to start with but as I became older it would become less and less to the point you couldn’t grasp it and had to let it go. 

As a parent now with a teen I totally get it. 

Don’t half miss you Mr Edwards 💜

Happy 7th Birthday to the best dog and cat mother Happy 7th Birthday to the best dog and cat mother in the world. I know people always think they have the best dog but seriously Penny is in the top ten. Loyal and loving and just the easiest dog ever to look after and have around. 

We all want another but she has been so good from day one that I’m terrified of what sort of luck we would get with another one 🤦‍♀️ if only humans could be a bit more like Penny (without the sniffing bums part) 🥰
Manchester has changed SO much. It has been years Manchester has changed SO much. It has been years since we went into the centre itself. What hasn’t changed is the people, atmosphere and my love for the city that will always be home. 

The best weekend celebrating @jules_spaceman 50th and our 22nd wedding anniversary. 

Is 4pm to early to go to bed? 😂
Happy Birthday @jules_spaceman found our way back Happy Birthday @jules_spaceman found our way back home for the weekend to celebrate. ❤️

Frozen nature eggs

April 25, 2020      admin      3 Comments

Yesterday we did the most lovely and simple of activities which has proven so popular and so many have asked how we did it. Really very simple and enjoyable for all ages. We made frozen nature eggs. All you need is eggs, and cold water. We also used flowers and food colouring too. The flowers were not picked as the bees need them more than us but we saved them from the mower and tractor in the fields. I cracked the eggs very carefully leaving just a small hole in the top, enought for ...

Fruit, juice and Lolly pops

August 2, 2018      admin      2 Comments

A favourite way to spend some time in the Summer holidays for my children is fruit picking. I actually really enjoy it too and you can find so many farms now that have parks, cafes and animals as well as the fruit picking so you can really make a day of it. It costs very little but it can easily fill a day. The other option is to go wild and pick from your garden or the fields. We have so many blackberries around us, plenty to share with all the wildlife. What ever fruit you pick be it from a ...

Creating a bird bath

May 24, 2018      admin      Leave a Comment

We love the RSPB activities. We have already made hedgehog cafes and gone Pond Dipping and rock pooling so this time we decided to give making a bird bath a go a bird bath. Here are some tips for making a bird bath; Bird baths should be shallow rather than deep. A good rule of thumb is no more than 3 inches deep. A graduated edge is good, too, so birds can ease their way in to a level that’s comfortable for them. Avoid an overly slick surface for the bowl. Just like you in the bathtub, ...

Pond Dipping and rock pooling

September 11, 2017      admin      9 Comments

Have you heard about the RSPB wild challenge? Sometimes it is helpful to have some extra ideas for things to do outdoors. If you are struggling for some ideas then pop over and give the wild challenge a go. The children (and us adults) are really enjoying working through the list of activities. We have already built a bug hotel and hedgehog cafe so next on the challenge list we thought we would do rock pooling and pool dipping. Both activities are really fun and easy to do, it costs nothing ...

Building Hedgehog Cafes

April 3, 2017      admin      4 Comments

After so many people loved seeing the bug hotel we created it seemed only fair that we gave the hedgehogs some love. We have also discovered the RSPB wildlife challenge,  we love a challenge and of course medals so we thought we would give it a go. Making the hotel Hedgehogs are notoriously private animals, only coming out at night, and running at the first sign of a predator. With this in mind, the hedgehog cafe needs to be strong, sturdy and dry, a place where the hedgehog can raise its ...
