What I’ve Learnt Since Moving To Australia
I've been in Australia now for just over 2 weeks and even in that short period of time I've learnt some interesting and slightly eye opening things about myself. Value.

Barneys First Day At The Beach!
Barney has never been to a beach before. We live just outside of Manchester so we don't really have a beach near us (Blackpool beach doesn't count...) and Barney hasn't always been a lover of car journeys. He used to travel in a cage which would be in the boot of the car. I was … Continue reading Barneys First Day At The Beach!

The ‘Grand Children’ Talk…
It's a topic that I cannot seem to get my family members (mostly my mum) to understand. I have absolutely no plans to ever have children. In all honesty, I don't think I've ever been a fan of babies or children. I live in a community where young parents (some younger than me) is the norm and I … Continue reading The ‘Grand Children’ Talk…
