This is a sponsored post, but it’s still all good! As you may or may not know, I used to volunteer at a charity shop and, unsurprisingly, we had a lot of clothes donated. Now, if you ask me that’s the best way to get rid of clothes you don’t want, it’s all for a [...]
A girl is crying. A nine year old girl is crying. Can you see her? Can you hear her? In an unfamiliar room she is sobbing. Alone. Away from those who love her. Away from those who understand her. Afraid. In her mind plays a traumatic moment. Over and over. She watches as her father gets further [...]
Thanks to Him Up North you get to hear the angelic voices of @cwtchesandchaos and I rocking out to Sweet Caroline! Have you done something funny for Comic Relief?
Nope, I didn’t spell it wrong, I’m combining “plea” and “clean”! Oh yes, I’m just that clever! We all know by now that I volunteer at Hope House and that I’m a charity shop convert because of it!

So Blogladesh is under way now, the fantastic mummies are flying out there right now, they’ve been championing the [...]

Do you have a child under 5 in your life? One of those small people who runs around creating havoc, making noise and leaving destruction. Maybe even one of those elusive, well behaved ones. One of those teeny people that sees life so different, not even in school yet but is still your entire world? [...]
Only a short post today! Today I went to another work event, this time at Willaston Social Club, to raise some more money for Hope House children’s hospice. We did a card game type tombola where you paid 50p, picked 3 playing cards out of a bag, and if you got a face card you [...]
