Bristol Zoo – preview pics of a Grand Day Out

Full review coming later this week, but here’s the sneak preview pics of our family day out at Bristol Zoo – the first time Ella has been to one (at least since she’s been big enough to notice), so the whole day was a complete adventure for her! The lunchtime ‘meet the animals’ display was excellent – but completely packed. We possibly wouldn’t have elected to stop as it was so busy –...

Chessington review trip

Okay, hands up, I admit it. I was wrong (you might want to read that twice, because you won’t see it often). Having had a conversation with the lovely people at Chessington about how a review may not work because a theme park is really not the best day trip to go on with a toddler, they were really keen to show us just how wrong we were. So yesterday I dragged (kicking and screaming of course, these 6/7/10 year olds are SO...

Family Day Out review – At-Bristol

Full review is coming over LittleStuff soon, but here’s a few pics from the day: Toby examining his own eye with much fascination – I took the younger boys into the planetarium, and whilst we...

This is Ella practicing her regal wave from the ladybird ride Joe and Toby driving the Digger Cameron in the back, me in the front, and Josephs arms ju-u-ust peeking out in front of me Toby and Joe...

The Eden Project Review

Whilst we were reviewing the Sands Resort Hotel, we were invited to take the children to visit the Eden Project in Cornwall. Well, what a day!! The sheer scale of the place took us by surprise, and the strange beauty of the ‘domes’ and the ‘hedgehog building’ (The Core) was stunning from the high view point as you arrive. We had been looking out to see who could spot the domes first as we drove nearer – not realising that they are at...
