What I'm Doing Now - A Meme
I've never taken part in a bloggers meme before and didn't really know what one was until I got involved in this one via 'A Mothers Ramblings'. A meme is basically the equivalent to chain mail, where content is passed on in a chain to hopefully keep it alive. The difference in the blogging...

Like Father Like Son
I just want to take a moment to say that despite England's heartbreaking early exit from what is Clayton's first World Cup we are both still stubbornly patriotic. Luckily he is too young to remember the pain of this World Cup as an England fan but no doubt he's a lifetime of wasted hope on our...

Perfect Day
So, I'm sitting at work with the sun beating on my back from the window behind me, knowing that I finish at 1pm and have a free afternoon ahead of me. I'm at my desk and reading this post from one of my favourite bloggers, 'Mummy Daddy Me' and I get to thinking. The photos look fantastic and the...

Fathers Day: My Hero.
You certainly won't hear me complaining whenever I get a gift, particularly if it's been given as a token to highlight the love and appreciation of my family, but Fathers Day for me isn't about materialistic objects. It's become so commercial. Fathers Day for me is about celebrating the Fathers...

What's your favourite time of the parenting day?
I bath our son. I bath him, I read to him, give him his last bottle and safely put him to sleep. That routine is mine, I've claimed it... I like it and I don't like it being interefered with. It sounds strange that something which in reality is a chore has become something that I look...
