BEST WAYS TO STORE YOUR GARDEN FURNITURE IN BAD WEATHER

Whether you have an aluminium patio set or some furniture in rattan direct from a quality manufacturer, knowing how to care for it all year round is essential to keeping it looking its best.

Happy Birthday to you- you are now 32! 

It is Scott's birthday today and he is feeling old- in his words. I am only a year behind him and still feel like i'm 16!. Plans for today are opening cards- taking the girls to dance this morning and then going out for his birthday meal.

WHERE ARE YOU SPENDING XMAS THIS YEAR?

Christmas for me has always been at home . I love decorating the house and putting our tree up and spending the evenings with our Xmas scented candles on and really enjoying this festive time of year at home.

The children also enjoy being at home for Christmas and we haven't been anywhere else for Christmas - yet. Scott has always said he would like to experience Christmas abroad one year and when baby Nila is a little older i would definitely be up for it!
