Prayers for Peace
As happened in many churches across Northern Ireland, this morning our minister, Brian, led us in prayers for peace for our land. Our church leaders this week suggested that, as a practical sign of our revulsion towards violence and our determination as one community to speak with one voice on this issue, people wear a…

Dulse and Yellowman at the Auld Lammas Fair, Ballycastle
For two days of the year, the small coastal market town of Ballycastle hosts it’s traditional Lammas Fair – a tradition which goes back over 400 years. The town swells with stall holders and visitors, and the most popular stalls are those selling the local “delicacies” (I use that word advisedly) of dulse (inedible edible…

Day 18 – Ikea and My Own Little Rudolf
Today, having waited a whole week, I finally stopped resisting and went to the new Ikea store in Belfast. Those who don’t know me so well, may not appreciate quite what a momentous occasion this was. For nearly 20 years, since I visited my first Ikea store in England I have had a passion for…

On the 3rd of December ….. it snowed
Today, after a long week of ice and freezing temperatures the snow finally started to fall again today. Not a lot, but enough to make the cars struggle in our street, and enough for me to get out in the garden with my camera. The birds were glad of our bird feeders but no photos…

Best Road in Northern Ireland to Photograh …. and more……

Review of Bananagram – fun family game
I bought this Bananagram game at Britmums Live conference in London last month for a number of reasons:
- 1. It was promoted as a game for all ages (from 7 up)
- 2. It was Olympic 2012 special addition and I was in London and promised to bring home a souvenir
- 3. It looked fun while being educational too
- 4. Easily transported for family holidays
We have already played it with friends and family …. and it has been very popular.
The rules are easy, and it can be fun working in team with some of the younger players
The frequent request on completing a game is “just one more game please”
At Britmums I did see a number of other games from makers of Bananagrams and I would be certainly keen to try some more. This game was purchased by me, and all opinions expressed are entirely my own – promise!
What is your favourite family game?

Easter Eggs in Tescos in January – it’s just wrong!

Looks like a hoot! I can’t remember the last time we played a game, so sad! We hope to go camping in the fall and then we will do that – my Mr. bought a Stratego game at a yard sale, he has fond childhood memories of it so guess who will be learning? Have you ever heard of it?
Thanks for sharing!
