So as I sit writing my 6.5 month old sleeps next door in his own little room enjoying his own little world. Tomorrow he goes to nursery. Tomorrow I go back to work. Tomorrow the fun and long days end for time flying and short days of very little quality time. Tomorrow the fog of…

#HomemadeIcecream #NotJustWhippy We are lucky enough to live centrally to a lot of things within the North East. Situated just up the road from us is Wheelbirks Parlour. The parlour is something I had heard about from my boss. We decided to venture out one weekend and get an ice cream. It did not disappoint.…

So, in August 2019 we travelled all the way North over 300 miles to visit Mark’s family. It took 8 hours. In a car. With a 10-week-old. To say my nerves were shot to sh** is an understatement of epic proportions. I figured my confidence would return for the journey and it would be a…

The first time we had afternoon tea was when we stayed overnight at Ardoe House in Aberdeen. The other half loves sandwiches so it was an instant…

Having moved to the North East over 3 years ago, we have been missing out on all the amazing local things around us. So, on a lovely Friday afternoon we ventured…

Bucket List Agenda: #TropicalIsland #History In July 2018, we flew out to Berlin following all the social media buzz about the Tropical Island hanger. As first impressions go, I found Berlin to be sterile when compared with the likes of Croatia. In hindsight, I wasn’t comparing apples with apples so to speak. We arrived late…

#Staycation #CoupleswhoGolf When you’ve spent most of your twenties living in Scotland, the home of Country House Hotels, you think you know what they have to offer. Matfen Hall proved this theory to be monumentally wrong by showing us the true meaning of an exceptional stay. Over the August bank holiday we booked to stay…

Bucket List Agenda: #Food #Gambling #Sun #Cocktails #WEDDING August 25th 2017 we flew out to Vegas for our wedding. We departed Aberdeen, connected in London and landed at McCarran International Airport where we were greeted by a fantastically oversized limo (courtesy of my father and mother in law – thanks guys). The best bit of…
