Not literally, but that's how my knitting needles feel right now. There's hardly been a chance to do any since Master C came along nearly 8 months ago. I've still been going along to my weekly knitting group, but more...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/AAO9Zzv9HL4" height="1" width="1"/>

I've just caught the end of the lunchtime TV news - the bit before they go over and do the national weather forecast. Sometimes they use this last slot to include an article that's slightly lighter than the rest of...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/_3ivViEXVOc" height="1" width="1"/>

Compared to many others we were actually quite late to the iPad owning party and it was only at Christmas that I was lucky enough to get my hands on a mini as a gift from Mr C. As a...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/C0kWINWJ_U0" height="1" width="1"/>

Within two hours of our first Bigjigs Play Patrol parcel arriving it started raining. Not much of a surprise with this year's weather, but seeing as they sent Little Miss C some garden tools to review it has made reviewing...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/HkePNmfgoLQ" height="1" width="1"/>

Another opportunity for me to indulge my inner geek on this week's Ladybird Tuesday with 'How it works' The Aeroplane. Another book from series 654 which promises to explain exactly how things work in a way simple enough for a...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/PGvo--LCC_4" height="1" width="1"/>

Passport application sent off - check. Brand new passport for Master C received back - check. Flights booked - check. Family friendly hotel found, fully researched and booked - check.

Today's visit from the delivery man brought the kids' first Bigjigs Play Patrol assignment and as the youngest Play Patrol Agent Master C is taking his testing duties very seriously. He was sent an Activity Centre to review and with...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/GLrdB9mbpIk" height="1" width="1"/>

When you look at some of the old Ladybird series they just don't quite make sense. Series 682 was originally released to show children about domesticated animals, but as the series title suggests it ended up with only two titles,...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/beingmrscfeed/~4/GVUHmb5_n8g" height="1" width="1"/>
