Arthur’s Reading
Image via Wikipedia It’s impressive to see how good Arthur’s reading is becoming. He’s currently working his way through the Peter and Jane series on Ladybird and seems to really enjoy reading them. He’s also reading the occasional word in stories that we’re reading him, just to try and get he reading that little bit…
Oh for some more time
I’ve had the opportunity to help a number of people this week, from people who had problems with the anti-virus on their computer, to others who’s phone had just stopped working. Unfortunately, I couldn’t fix everyone’s problems, some were just too great. I like the fact that I can help people sometimes, not that I’m…
Arthur starts reading

Our holidays
Image via Wikipedia My last post implied we’re only going to Butlins this year, but it’s actually only one of our holidays; we’re also going to Disneyland Paris, which is our big holiday of the year. It’s our 10th anniversary and we had really been planning to go on a cruise, but which Camille being…
Taking a holiday at Butlins
Image via Wikipedia So this year we’ll be taking an additional holiday and spending a long weekend at Butlins in Skegness. To be perfectly honest, I’ve never actually been to Butlins before, but I hear it’s a great family holiday. It’s just the 3 of us at the moment, but when the twins start growing…
