Joining the National Trust

April 12, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

If you had asked me in my teens and early twenties what I thought being middle aged was, I would have probably said owning a chest freezer, driving a family car and being members of the National Trust. Indeed I think I offended an older work colleague once when I joked ‘you’ll be National Trust … [Read more…]

Festival Fields: Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift Headline New Blackpool Music Festival

April 17, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

If like me, the likelihood of attending a music festival this year is slim to none, fear not. You can still pull on a pair of wellies, grab your lanyard and get festival ready for the biggest music event of the year as a number of chart-toppers line up in Blackpool. The new festival named … [Read more…]

Our Family Day Out-To Blackpool

August 7, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

We don’t get to go out much as a family. It is the nature of the business we are in so when we do, we make the most of it. Yesterday was a rare treat. The four of us went to the seaside. We love Blackpool. It was one of the first places Hubster and … [Read more…]

Mini Moose’s Arctic Adventure Playground at Chill Factore-A Review

July 3, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

The Mercury may have been tipping 30 in the past week but one day last week, the children and I went to cool down in dramatic style. In doing so, it saw us dress in snowsuits, hats and gloves in the middle of summer. Have I given it away now? We went to try out … [Read more…]

Risley Moss Easter Egg Hunt

April 4, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

  Today was one of those mornings when I could have just stuck Peppa Pig on the TV and snoozed. I’d been up with Beb in the night, Boo was up early and we’re lambing. I looked at Boo’s little face though and, after the terrible weather we’ve had, I knew I had to take … [Read more…]

December 1, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 6 Comments

This weekend we visited the High Legh miniature railway at High Legh Garden Centre near Lymm, Cheshire. Boo and I visited a couple of years ago in the summer but I think she was a bit young and I fear I enjoyed it more. This time was different, at Christmas the railways gets all festive … [Read more…]

Santa’s Magical Grotto, Liverpool

November 15, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 6 Comments

Once upon a time, mummy and Boo got the train to Liverpool to visit Santa’s Magical Grotto at St George’s Hall.   They don’t travel very much on trains so the journey there was very exciting despite the pouring rain and there was a lot of “choo-choo-ing” on the way. Neither of them had been … [Read more…]
