Joining the National Trust

April 12, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

Indeed I think I offended an older work colleague once when I joked ‘you’ll be National Trust … [Read more…]

My 10 Favourite Places to go in Liverpool

February 8, 2018 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I love Liverpool. Many years ago, before children, farmers and farms, I worked there and I loved every minute, spending time in the city.

The Royal Cheshire Show is over for another year and I can’t help feeling a bit sad about it. We visited on Tuesday, the first day (we visited on the Wednesday last year). It was a family affair last year and even Hubster came along but this year, it was a scorching hot day and … [Read more…]

It’s Time For Christmas at Bents 2016

October 12, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

This is my fourth year of writing about the Bents Christmas displays. What is different this year though is that rather than it be a treat for my birthday at the end of October, I was invited to have a sneak peak before everyone else. I like to think of myself as a Bents VIP … [Read more…]
