This haircut was a LONG time coming! I’m growing

This haircut was a LONG time coming! I’m growing out the red, but the length was really bothering me! So it was time for a chop. ✂️

Next visit will be to sort the colour out!

Goodbye April! 👋 April is always a crazy month

Goodbye April! 👋 April is always a crazy month for us - birthdays, Easter holidays, anniversaries and more. It’s a rollercoaster; I’m always knackered come the last day! 😅 May is looking a little calmer…

*Remember that this is literally a highlights reel. April also had sadness and tears and things that we don’t take photos + videos of*

Start where you are now. And today is as good a pl

No need to buy a number 6 cake mould… I just used the 8 I bought a few weeks ago, cut out a bit and smothered it in chocolate buttercream. You’d never know. 😋

It’s not perfect - but it was yummy and the birthday boy loved it, so that’s all that really matters :)

The lovely team at @peugeot_saveurs_uk sent me their Paris Press last week to try out, and let me tell you, what a treat! I do love my coffee, and grinding my own beans straight into the cafetière is blowing my mind a little bit. 😂 My standard is very much instant coffee all the way at home, so it's nice to try something a little more sophisticated! Haha! It's so cool - it certainly earnt its place in my coffee lovers gift guide (link in bio and on stories if you fancied a read)

I asked if they would provide one as a competition prize for a lucky follower, and they were more than happy to oblige!

Come to Paris 🇫🇷 with us! Me, Kerry + Bobb

Come to Paris 🇫🇷 with us!

Me, Kerry + Bobbie all turned 40 last December, so we went on a belated birthday trip to Paris back in October to celebrate. This is just a very quick snapshot of a lovely 3 days (which already feels like such a long time ago!)

We ate, drank, saw some sights and had such a laugh together. ❤️

#ad We took a trip to @mcmcomiccon in May and had an amazing time!

With 2 gaming obsessed boys aged 5 + 7 it was a no-brainer that they would love it! The retro gaming zone was a big hit - seeing the boys play on a Nintendo console like the one I had as a kid (even playing it on the same TV I had in my bedroom in the 90s!) brought back all the fuzzy memories!

The atmosphere was great - it was really family friendly. Everyone was just out to have a good time, and we really felt that with the overall vibe.

The costumes! Some people really went for it with their cosplay! I felt underdressed! Maybe next time we’ll do a family costume. Any suggestions?

There was a chill out zone for younger kids called The Treehouse where there were bean bags to relax on, crafts to do (including free mug painting) and Duplo. It was a welcome break!

Our kids were a bit young for the panels, so I can’t comment on those. The queues didn’t seem too long, even though it was a busy event. There was a Stranger Things photo op which we didn’t get to do 😩 - it was a bit scary for the kids!

Tickets are available for October now! It’s at @excellondon from 28th - 30th October, and kids aged 10 and under go free! There’s a link in my bio 👍

I didn’t even want the number 7, to be honest. 😩

Seriously. 2 weeks of staying indoors pretty solidly because my youngest had chickenpox and now my eldest has come down with it too. Not the summer holidays dreams are made of! 🤪

I do love #beautydropday! I signed up to the @libertylondon Beauty Drop when it was first launched - you basically pay £20 a month and get a box of high-end beauty goodies every quarter. This box contained goodies from @renskincare @spacemasks @davinesofficial @labruket + @skinesis

But here’s the *really* good bit.

The £20 goes into your Liberty account, and you can use it to buy whatever you like. I saved mine up and bought some @lespecs sunglasses. I still have a credit, and I’ll be using it at Christmas time for gifts. 👍

I’ve popped a link in my bio for you to sign up yourself! It’s such a treat. ❤️ This isn’t an ad, I pay for it myself monthly 👍

We had so much fun at @mammamiapartyuk last night,

We had so much fun at @mammamiapartyuk last night, celebrating @apariciolynne birthday, along with @katie.jayne.90 + @sunnyflowerlou ! Great sing-a-long fun… such an immersive experience with singing waiters, and an amazing cast. And of course, the classic Abba soundtrack! With the weather how it was yesterday, we could have been in Greece! 🇬🇷 ☀️

It’s not cheap, but for a special occasion for Abba fans, it’s pretty perfect! #mammamiatheparty

It’s been FAR TOO LONG since I had my hair done.

It’s been FAR TOO LONG since I had my hair done. Having it get to the state it was is the only way I can justify getting a professional colour. 😬
