Monday #683
I realised a few days ago that I’d misnumbered the Monday posts because after #789 I’d done #780, #781 and so on. So I renumbered them. Then I happened to scroll back and realise I had made the same mistake … Continue reading
Monday #682
After me complaining endlessly about the cold miserable weather today was the hottest May day ever. I really should be more careful what I wish for! At least this far north it was only in the low twenties and was … Continue reading

To badly misquote June Bride from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers – April showers will come so they say, and they did, and they haven’t stopped even though it’s May. I hope the next line – You’re about to forget … Continue reading

Despite it being May it is still pretty chilly. And rainy. It barely feels like May in fact. At least blogging is an indoor activity! Milton King x Enid Blyton and Five Go Off in a Caravan as watched by … Continue reading

It’s a long weekend here as it’s the start of May. Tomorrow – may the fourth be with you! – is a bank holiday. We have a new member of the household – a plush snake who had no name … Continue reading
(Belated) Monday #678
Got distracted last night and completely forgot about writing this. The Grumbly Jumbly by Don Roth and Five Go to Smuggler’s Top as watched by Fiona & Stef We have just started reading The Borrowers at bedtime this week. I … Continue reading

Schools are back this week so it’s back to ordinary life. At least it was sunny today instead of rainy like the forecast promised! Letters to Enid part 82 and Five Go to Smuggler’s Top, 90s style Bizarely Stef never … Continue reading
Monday #676
It’s currently the school holidays and as I took last week off work I thought I’d take a week off blogging too. We were lucky to have some decent weather so we were out and about most days. The weekend … Continue reading

Last week got derailed as I came down with the cold. I can now breathe through my nose again (mostly). I haven’t gone to see the Magic Faraway Tree film yet, mostly because of my cold, but also because Brodie … Continue reading

We are mid-way through March and I don’t think it’s going to be the sort of March which resembles an early (and sometimes only) summer. I’m down to one pair of boots as two (!) pairs sprung a leak this … Continue reading

February is over and we are into March. We are wondering if we can cast aside the puffer jackets now and wear just raincoats. Best not to, though, it could start snowing next week after all. February round up and … Continue reading

I’ve had to take my sunglasses out with me for a few times recently. The crocuses and snowdrops are out. Spring may be just around the corner! (Or we may plunge back into deep winter. I’m not ruling anything out … Continue reading
Monday #669
We’ve had some actual sunshine in the past few days. I even had my sunglasses on today. It’s still cold but there’s actual daylight and I even hung my washing outside for a while at the weekend. It’s the little … Continue reading

A couple of weeks ago I was silently congratulating myself for not catching Brodie’s cough. He had been coughing for a week or more and I was certain we were past the danger phase. I was wrong. I caught the … Continue reading
Monday #665
It’s January, it’s still cold, I’ve probably moaned far too much about the weather for a lifetime already, so on to something more cheerful perhaps? Brodie has been persuaded to return to Circus Days Again so we have been reading … Continue reading
Monday #664
It looks like we are easing out of the grip of our cold snap now. We have been lucky not to have a load of snow or anything but it has been very icy and cold. Monday is supposed to … Continue reading
Monday #663
Happy New Year! For the first time in years none of us were ill over the Christmas break so I’m taking that as a serious win. Being January it’s now time for me to look back at the previous year … Continue reading

We seem to be moving rapidly through December now, that’s a whole week gone. People keep telling me how many days it is until Christmas and I’d just like to stuff my fingers in my ears and go ‘la la … Continue reading

It’s December! Elf has returned to wreak havoc and I realise that I haven’t put together my yearly Enid Blyton gift guide. I aim to fix that oversight this week – and get on with my Christmas shopping too. Enid … Continue reading
