Martinhal is a small chain of luxury family-friendly resorts across Portugal that promise you that you’ll get to drink your coffee while it’s still warm. (more…)
It’s been a busy few weeks with birthdays, chicken pox and saving a one-year-old’s life on an hourly basis. I usually do a monthly update but this month I’ve done something a little different. I joined in with a blogger linky by Awfully Chipper to share a snapshot of our life lately. (more…)

I found it on our Virgin On Demand this morning, we are on episode #4 and I have no plans to turn it off for the next hour, the peace of a Tuesday morning is bliss. I also have a latte by my side, sound posh don’t I? Santa brought me a Nespresso. It fills me with joy.
