Max is absolutely obsessed with trains. From playing with them at home to waving at them whenever they pass, he can't get enough! We were invited to head to the Watercress Line over the Halloween weekend to celebrate their Wizard Weekend. Let's just say we were spellbound by the fun we had!

As Weymouth Sea Life ambassadors we are absolutely loving popping down most weekends to see our favourite sea creatures and get our Sea Life fun on. But when half term hit, we couldn't wait to pop down for their Ascarium event. So with Max and Rubi in tow, we drove down early and raced to see what was in store. 

Max is obsessed with building things and seeing how things work. He likes nothing better than sitting and finding out how things have a chain reaction and anything STEM related. So when Geomag got in touch with us to tell us that they had a new range out called Mechanics, we couldn't wait to give it a try. 

When the Geomag Mechanics Gravity Motor turned up, it was a race to see who could get to the box first! And let me tell you, it was worth the race as it's fantastic. 

A newsletter is something that I have been toying with for quite a while now. Not just to keep others updated on what is going on with my blog. But to also share things that I am loving from others, things that perhaps I don't want to write about on the blog but want to mention, and also things that are coming up that people can look out for. But I've always wondered how to make the stand out.

We all know that there are some basic free packages out there but when trying to make a newsletter or campaign you need to stand out from the crowd. That's where Campaign Monitor comes into it's element and it's made me rather excited!

Wicked is one of those musicals that has been woven into my life. I can attach most of the songs to memories in my life and it's one I will never of tire listening to again and again. Whilst it's still riding high in the West End of London after over a decade of treading the boards at the Apollo Victoria Theatre, it's recently been making it's way around the country on tour and has finally arrived in Southampton at the Mayflower Theatre. I was kindly invited along to see if I would be defying gravity and loving this popular musical.

Every year the fantastic Paines Plough bring their Roundabout theatre to my local area. It's an inflatable theatre that puts on engaging plays for adults and children. The plays are always some of our favourite that we go and see throughout the year and we are full of excitement when we see that massive yellow theatre in the distance. 

This year the Roundabout Festival headed to it's new location outside Pavilion Dance South West as part of the Arts By The Sea celebrations. Still in conjunction with The Lighthouse, we got our tickets for How To Spot An Alien and couldn't wait to see what we had in store!
