Howdy peeps Not the intended post for today but I have to talk to you about something... please stop with the panic-buying already! I went to sainsbury's earlier and they are literally paying overtime to half the staff to restock. It looked like this... Gaps are the anti bacterial ones Firstly, it's unnecessary if you [...]
Afternoon Peeps! It's Halloween and that means different things to different people. I don't celebrate it for religious reasons, but wish those who do a safe and happy one. More and more people here are choosing not to because there has been a rise over the last couple of years in the number of idiots [...]
Howdy peeps! If you've seen my Instagram today then you'll know I've had my first reindeer of the year! 😁😋🦌 It really is starting to look like Christmas!!! Things are in full swing in several stores now. I showed you B&M the other day, so I thought I'd show you a couple of pics from [...]
Morning, Monday Peeps! Christmas is a mere 12 weeks away (on Wednesday) and, of course, I've been shopping. B&M and Morrison's are already bringing their A-game (which I very much appreciate). The thing is... I bought myself a Christmas present.I know calendars are a gift people often buy or make and, in the past, I've [...]
Howdy Peeps! We skived off yesterday to have a family day...so there was no blog, sorry. We had a great time! Went shopping, ate out and had a decent walk. We were going to go to the cinema but it was a bit warm for that yesterday afternoon- wanted to get out in the lovely [...]

Happy Monday Peeps! Just a heads-up for those in the UK: WH Smith's and Sainsbury's both currently have school stationery on sale!! Sainsbury's also selling lunch boxes and bottles, and in larger stores, uniform and bags too. Wherever you are, try Amazon for a bargain! Just got my daughter a really good quality backpack that's [...]
Hi-de-hi Peeps! If you know me at all, you probably know what I'm going to say....IT'S FIVE MONTH'S UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!!! (Yes I know it's the first day of summer holidays, but that doesn't change the date!) Part of the reason I start doing Christmas so early is because of the budget; I don't have a [...]
Howdy Peeps! Y'all can probably work out that yesterday was 7 months until Christmas! 🙂 🙂 🙂 If you were here the end of last year, you'll know how much I love Christmas (understatement of the year!) and how much I love planning. The thing is we've lived for years on a tighter budget and [...]
