Of course we went to see my Darling Nina. Still it is just a piece of stone, with some grass, and some flowers and an old photo. It was lovely to ‘see’ her and have some long chats with Amy about Mummy Nina – that meant a great deal to me. Thanks to my MaryRead More

Day 1 Amy the lion tamer in DK’s back garden. Whipping poor little Twiglet. Ollie turns up to watch – whip her harder Amy. DK from RSPCA turns up and sorts them out. Looks like a game of ‘what’s the time Mr Wolf’. Snack time – and indeed it was as Claire had laid onRead More

Off to Covent Garden we go – a busy busy day planned with much sight seeing for the kids. Amy had already demanded London Eye and Big Ben – locked in! But 1st things 1st off to a lovely Sunday brunch with my ever so lovely and beautiful friends Carole, Greg, Troy & Tiah. RememberRead More

That’s your lot? Nah, this is my Mum’s allotment! Like a cottage industry in the making. Food in abundance. Colours and smells (yes that’s ‘compost’, or as we call it horse sh*t!) galore. And clearly full of Filipino and child labour. Naughty Mummy! One of those poor kids up to his waist in raspberry thorns,Read More

Our 1st full day in London – hmmm what to do what to do??? I had a food idea in my head that I feel really needed executing whilst we were here. Yes let’s explore the foodcourt in Harrods – woo hoo! A beautifully sunny day, No.14 bus and off we all went – arrivingRead More

Daddy-pedia time! Dover stands at the narrowest part of the English Channel, next stop France. Remember the Vera Lynne wartime song; “They’ll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover…” Yep that’s this place, I think referring to The Battle of Britain and our returning heroes of the time. Much history is here too asRead More

Beautiful Nanny – just beautiful.  A picture paints a thousand words and all that, so really I can shut up for this one (for once I hear you saying!). Just enjoy the flowers from a sunny Garden of England garden! Do you want a little history on Westgate? Hmmm tell you what, I don’t care,Read More

Wednesday, in fact day No.3 in UK and off we go to Broadstairs for the day – family K with DKHNY and Claire. Do you know of Broadstairs? It’s part of The Isle of Thanet where Margate is also. It, like Margate, is approximately 80 miles from London. Did you know it is known asRead More
