For a while now, I’ve been very aware that my lifestyle has been less-than-ideal. I work from home – which on it’s own is a massive benefit for me. However, it has some pretty huge implications on lifestyle, namely, I sit on my arse all day, some days I wouldn’t …
Your home is a place to put your stamp on it. Yes, guests come to visit, and you may have friends and family stay over, and they may all have different tastes. However, when it comes to actually living in your home, you’re the one who’s living in it for …
Firstly, let me make this clear. This post isn’t aimed as a “feel sorry for Dads” post. I’m not like that, I’m not 10 and I’m not in a school playground. This is just a factual post about how life is being a (working) Dad. You know, there is such …
Last year, we (finally) became home owners. Something I never really thought would happen, for many reasons (cost, desire to own, ability to live in one place for longer than 2 years and so on), but life changed, and it was the right thing to do. So of course, I …

I’ll be honest – we didn’t buy this house for it’s garden. We bought it for the number of good sized room it has – and the large kitchen, after having too many small kitchens where you can barely squeeze in. The garden is small, very small, and when we …
We often struggle to find fun, new things for us to do as a family. Of course, we have our “go-to” day’s out (mostly National Trust places, or simply mooching around the City), but we always want new places to take Grayson to, so he doesn’t get bored of seeing …
When we bought this house – we knew that we’d have to do an amount of work in every room. It wasn’t in a bad state by any means. The previous owner had been renting it out, so it was habitable, but was decorated badly, cheaply, as in, cheap laminate …
In a month or so, Ashleigh and I are going away to see a band that we both love. We’ll be spending the weekend away from Grayson, and although we miss him when we’re away – it’s so important as a parent to have time away from your children to …
