There was a biome we found yesterday at the @edenprojectcornwall that replicates the Mediterranean - the flowers, the warmth, the stone - and for a moment it felt like we were wandering through a little Spanish village, glorious! ⁣
⁣
Alongside the sweltering heat of the rainforest, we could have been on far-fling travels abroad.⁣..
⁣
I haven’t been to the Eden Project since it first opened years ago and it’s grown so much. Inside as well as outside are beautifully tended and it looks particularly pretty surrounded by autumn shades. ⁣
Have you been?

This photo makes Cornwall look a lot balmier than it currently is 😂. I took it while wearing two coats, bracing myself against the sideways rain and blasting wind, while half-guiltily sending the kids into the sea in short summer wetsuits (they didn’t mind, but they were the most scantily-clad in there and came out a little blue-tinged 😬...but very invigorated - Wim Hof would approve!

Is there anything better than getting freezing sog

Is there anything better than getting freezing soggy in the sea, somebody else taking your wetsuit off for you (ain’t that the dream), wrapping you up in dry (neon) clothes and handing you a cup of hot chocolate to sip under a rainbow sky, the scent of neoprene lingering in the air? ⁣
⁣
The kids didn’t get the memo about the clocks going back (did anyone’s? 😂), which actually worked out well in the end as we were down on the beach by 9.30am, making the most of the sunshine (which sure is a lottery at the moment 🤪). ⁣
⁣
Hope you’ve all had a lovely Sunday!

There are lots of things I enjoy about this old 2018 photo @paultonspark & @peppapig_world, the fact it looks like we’re being cooked in a giant cauldron by a skeleton, the photo-bombing seagull, the mound of pumpkins, the blue skies and a mask-free world pre-covid...*sigh*⁣
⁣
Granted the piccie doesn’t have anything to do with Bristol, but I wanted to get you in the autumnal, Halloweeny mood just in time for half term, because I’ve just updated the blog on my site with tons of ideas for days out, events and goings-on in and around Bristol over the next week or so - you can find the link in my bio 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

It's finally here! The week where both children at

It's finally here! The week where both children attend school every day, all day (until half term in 4 days time that is).⁣
⁣
My word it's been a long time coming, and while my heart aches a bit for how grown-up the littlest one now is, she has needed this for SO long (as have I!) Strangely, lockdown seems to have hit the 4 year old the hardest, for weeks she wasn't herself at all, it felt like there was an underlying anger in her. Since starting school and getting to hang out with her peers she's way more settled, back to her shiny, pinging-off-the-walls self, and bedtimes are significantly easier!⁣
⁣
Sitting at my laptop and being able to work uninterrupted is something I don't think I'll ever take for granted again! I've only got 3 months to make the most of it, so I'm off to make myself a coffee and try and get my brain to work for longer than the length of a Disney movie at a time.

Remembering the babies that lit up our lives for a short time...⁣
⁣
Although I’ve joked about this pregnancy being a lockdown cliche, it’s actually the third time I’ve been pregnant in the past year. ⁣
⁣
This week is #babylossawarenessweek, and I wanted to add my voice to reducing the stigma around something that is so emotionally and physically painful, experienced by so many and yet so often suffered in silence. ⁣
⁣
Talking about it to others who have gone through it helped me so much (sometimes even to strangers on Instagram), so if anyone out there is going through it too, I’m sending you love and my DMs are always open. ⁣
