WHAT DOES SOLD STC MEAN?

 If you have spent any time looking at properties for sale, you have probably come across the term “Sold STC” on property listings or estate agent boards. It is a common phrase in the UK property market, but its meaning is not always obvious, particularly if you are buying a home for the first time.

A YEAR OF YES | COFFEE, CRYSTALS AND A LITTLE MANIFESTING

 If there's one thing we all know about me, it's that I love a good journal, a bit of self-development and anything to do with manifesting. Give me a coffee, my crystals, a quiet morning and something to write in, and I'm a happy girl!

HALLOWEEN FARM AT CATTOWS FARM | A SPOOKY FAMILY DAY OUT

 Spooky season is officially here, and a trip to Halloween Farm at Cattows Farm in Leicestershire is definitely the perfect way to kick things off! If there's one thing we love in this house, it's Halloween, and October doesn't officially start until we've had our annual trip to Halloween Farm.

TIS THE SEASON FOR GAMES NIGHT | CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS WITH OUTRIGHT GAMES

 Tis the season for game night! When summer is here, we are barely ever in. Always out doing something, going on little adventures, staying out later because it’s still light and making the most of the warmer weather. Then autumn rolls around, the weather gets a little cooler, the nights get darker, and suddenly staying in on a Saturday night sounds perfect!.

ROMEO AND JULIET AT THE NEW VIC THEATRE | A DATE NIGHT REVIEW

There’s something about an evening at the theatre that gives me all the autumn feels. The weather is starting to turn, the darker nights are creeping in, and a night at the theatre with some wine and Romeo & Juliet sounded like the perfect little midweek date night :) Sam and I headed to the New Vic Theatre and this was actually my first time visiting. I’ve lived around here for years and never been, so I was really looking forward to having a nosey, seeing what the theatre was like and obviously watching Romeo & Juliet.

MAKING AN OLDER CAR FEEL NEW AGAIN WITH THE RIGHT VW ALLOY WHEELS

 If you’re anything like me, you keep your car until it runs out of gas. Why mess with what works? But then there is a point when the car is still perfectly fine, it is just looking a little tired. Paint is good, engine is great, but those stock wheels have been on there since day one and they are showing it.
