Alice, 37, recently moved to Hove and is discovering as much as she can about the area and what it can offer her and her family. Our Reluctant Housewife will try anything once, even if it’s only to get her out of the house!
It’s a nightmare. A sartorial minefield. What do you dress your child in every day to show off just how funny and imaginative you are as a parent?
Hello, my name is Alice and I quite like McDonald’s restaurants. And I let my child eat in them. I also don’t mind Disney, Coke, Apple or Microsoft.
Our Boy absolutely adores animals, he is rarely seen without a stuffed one under his arm. His favourite is Monkey – a small gangly thing that he has had since he was a baby. With this in mind it has been a pleasure to seek out a couple of local animal attractions...
Finding time for yourself in such a busy world, cramped by work, childcare, family responsibilities and household chores is hard. It can be impossible, which makes those rare moments of quiet and stillness absolutely precious. Precious enough to fight for...
Here are some things I have learnt in my 37 years on this planet. It’s not my guide to life, just ten things that I know about myself and life-experience to be the absolute truth. You might not agree with them, but for me every single one of them is a fact, the veracity of which I cannot escape...
So we’ve just had the Children’s Festival and the inaugural Brighton Marathon, what’s next? Brighton is wonderful in that is seems to reel from one event to the next so that there is always something to look forward to. May sees the return of the famous Brighton Festival and its infamous Fringe, and I am in it!
I hesitate to write about the minutiae of my life or indeed something as common as the cold, but sickness has had such an impact on our household this week it cannot be ignored!
This week I was lucky enough to go on the famous Ghost Walk of The Lanes with Husband and two good friends. There was a buzz of adrenalin about us as we awaited our fate, (our anticipation however, was part spooky fun and part worry about any audience participation).
On Tuesday this week I will have been blogging for a whole year. A whole year of writing about what I have been up to. And I have loved it so much that I plan to do it for another year – if you’ll keep reading?
I have had cause recently to think about my behaviour. During a trip to a local busy Supermarket and after driving for ages in pointless circles I found myself raging at a woman who parked in ‘my’ space in the car park. Of course it wasn’t really ‘my’ space but I felt I had earned it...
I collect books by an author called Richmal Crompton. She is well known for her Just William stories, but I collect her grown-up fiction. This is a not so well known collection of out-of-print novels and short stories that can be quite hard to track down. But it’s exciting and is now a life-long quest that I really don’t want to end.
