We lost the house… (de ja vu)
We just couldn’t agree on a price for the works needed. Oh well… We’re still selling this place, however, and we’ll be moving out in mid-November (and in with the in-laws). Not sure where we’ll go from here, but everything happens for a reason!! (I need to keep saying this as my mantra.) —————— In…

Bringing up baby
There is a very interesting programme on the tv right now — it’s a 4-part series called bringing up baby. It’s following 6 families who are adhering to 3 different parenting theories. The blurb on the website is: “To try and make sense of it all, we’ve taken three of the most influential baby handbooks…
