Ok so Google maps is a liar 😂 well you can’t Ok so Google maps is a liar 😂 well you can’t account for traffic jams I guess. Yesterdays 3 hour drive was actually more like 5 but on a plus note it was a beautiful drive through the Pyrenees and as Dylan said “it looks like we are in Africa”. 

Arrived on site in roughly 42 temps so setting up was fun but both children are used to it and now older they got stuck in with pumping and hammering the awning pegs. Thank goodness for an awning that is so easy to put up that a 7 year old and 13 year old can manage it. 

Here for a week. About a million pools and the sea next to us. Entertainment that will make Js toes curl but the kids will love it. 
I’m off to snooze with my book. 
It’s taking some planning this trip but we’ve made it...

So pleased I strongly believe that swimming and cycling are so important for children and she’s now swimming like a fish and riding like a Olympian (well nearly 😆)

30 years I’ve known Mr Lane. The reason we met, 30 years I’ve known Mr Lane. The reason we met, the person that introduced us, a good friend, the best of friends left us a today. 

I am shocked of course not just for what I’ve lost but for her family. 
Doesn’t feel real that such a friend, the best of friends with the greatest of memories has gone. 

I don’t drink mid week but tonight I will be having a drink for her but not a special brew like back in the day!

So many amazing memories, how blessed I was to know her ❤️

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads those sparky Dads, go and give them a squeeze from me today. I was so lucky to have the sparkiest of them all ❤️

Wicked Uncle Review by Dylan (age 9)

April 30, 2018      admin      Leave a Comment

My Mum told me that the people from a company called Wicked uncle wanted me to test out some toys. I even got to pick which toys I wanted. Me and Mum went onto the website and had a good look through. The website was easy to use and find things, I like the fact it gave ages for searching to make it easier. 

We made a list of about ten things but in the end I decided on the mini arcade machine because I love gaming and the Stikbots because I like making videos and using cameras. We ordered the toys and they arrived quickly and they had been well packed. 

So this is my review, I hope you like it; 

Mini Arcade Machine

This is a game machine with games from the 1980’s it’s a hand held game with 240 games on it. The controls on it are a joystick and 2 buttons which are A and B. The games are fun. There are 4 types of game modes shooting and sports arcade and puzzle. I liked the sports ones the best. All the games are fun and amazing. The games are a mixture of hard and easy. My mum thought the music was a bit annoying but you can turn that off. I like the fact you can play with it on car journeys and it doesn’t need a signal like my iPad.

I would definitely recommend it for children from about age 6. My Dad liked playing it too so any age over 6 could play it. My sister is 3 and she pretended to play it but didn’t really know what she was doing, she just liked the noises.

Stikbots studio


The stikbots are just the coolest little robots ever. The pack came with two stikbots and a holder for Mums phone. Mum downloaded the app for me, she said it was free. When you have the app loaded you can start making videos. You basically take a picture of the stikbot in a position then move it and take another picture, then the app puts the pictures together to make a video. A bit like this;

I think the stikbots are amazing and all my friends that have played with them agree. I think anyone over the age of about 7 can enjoy playing with them and making videos. I haven’t let my sister play with them as I think little children might break them. It was easy to set up and quite easy to work out how to film and I am looking forward to making more films with them.

I just want to thank wicked uncle for sending me the toys to test out. I would love to be a chief toy tester and I totally recommend everyone getting the arcade and stikbots.
