This week has not been the best. Both myself and E are full of cold. She’s also got a nasty cough and was sick in the night on Wednesday. She was not herself yesterday and wasn’t really eating or sleeping. I was grateful that I don’t work Thursday or Fridays so I could look after […]

Hare Hill is a small National Trust site but don’t let its size put you off visiting. In fact with young children it’s size is a positive thing. It is a small woodland and beautiful walled garden in Cheshire. There is a walled garden in the centre which is well maintained. It’s the perfect place […]
