…..And they are gone!!!! (and lessons learned)

My kids are ALL off to school – yes, ALL THREE – at the same time!!! In almost 11 years of parenting, and apart from short times at pre-school/nursery school, this is the first time when I will be child-free from 9am to 2 pm ……….eventually. Our primary school does not believe in rushing things,…

Celebrating a birthday in style, luxury and relaxation

My last post mentioned that I was enjoying a stay at a lovely hotel with my husband for my birthday (which is today, 21 August). We stayed at Galgorm Manor and Spa.
