		<description><![CDATA[London excursion and price reduced on 'How to Raise Children Successfully' book]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey!</p>
<p>I know, I know...it's been 3 months and all I can do is apologise!</p>
<p>Life just doesn't get any slower but I love it! I am sitting here on the computer with kids in bed (back from West Wales yesterday, tired...good and bad) and am waiting for the washing machine to finish! Doh...</p>
<p>Today has been my last day of work before I take a week off and have some fab time with the kids. I am pleased to say that with the great help of Tesco vouchers and Travelodge we have been able to book 2 nights in London for what seems like small change...</p>
<p>The kids are <strong>soooo</strong> excited. Each has a made a list of things to do whilst they are there (lots of overlaps thankfully) and they pulled out their saved money to blow... I know, no excuses!</p>
<p>Anyway, I'll report back with pictures. No doubt there will be many...</p>
<p>As a local subscriber, as an Easter surprise...I also thought I'd let you know that I have reduced the price of my book 'How to Raise Children Successfully' to just $13.99.... way too cheap I know. Get your copy on the left hand side of the post.</p>
<p>Anyway, what ever you are doing this holiday, make sure you tell someone they mean the world to you.</p>
<p>Love,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Wayne</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi again,</p>
<p>I know, I know...like buses...none for a while, then 2 arrive all at once!</p>
<p>Have been super busy behind the scenes on <strong>loads</strong> of things! I am thrilled to tell you about an eBook I have been working on (with my assistant) for the past few weeks...is now available on Kindle.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a class="aligncenter" href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006IRSAQK" target="_blank">US version here</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a class="aligncenter" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006IRSAQK" target="_blank">UK version here</a></p>
<p>It's called 'Christmas Ideas'. We basically investigated many of the lovely traditions we see today surrounding Christmas and have suggested how they may have come about the in first place &amp; sometimes their meaning! Some of the answers will really blow your mind!</p>
<p>We've also taken the opportunity to provides some heart warming ideas for Christmas activities for your children this year, suggesting things that I think, are <strong>super exciting!</strong></p>
<p>You old fashioned folk (like me) can get the normal eBook version here for just $7.97!</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[great content, ideas and support through our parenting inner circle  at just $17 per month]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey!</p>
<p>Been mulling this over for a while...</p>
<p>When we started this site, easy &amp; wholesome menus for kids were few and far between. Now with each day that passes, more and more web sites are appearing, which are really good.</p>
<p>Therefore, we have decided to withdraw the weekly menu section and concentrate on providing great content, ideas and support through our parenting inner circle.</p>
<p>That means good news for our subscribers; a saving of $10 off your monthly payment, making your commitment just $17 per calendar month...heck that's less than one miserly coffee per week!</p>
<p>Happy days!</p>
<p>Love,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Wayne</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi there,</p>
<p>That time of year again... Halloween...yay, I love it!</p>
<p>It's the 29th and:</p>
<p>1. Pumkins are carved (their own designs this year...nice one's too!)</p>
<p>2. Costumes and fake blood got! Mari wanted glow in the dark vampire teeth?....scary!</p>
<p>3. Doing trick and treat lanterns today (bit of a project...but am sure will be fine!)</p>
<p>4. Baking tomorrow...limiting our stuff this year becaue it's a school day but will have usual stuff... Graveyard cake, witches brew and lovely hot soup with real sausage hot dogs!</p>
<p>Looking forward to it tremendously!</p>
<p>What ever you are doing this weekend, I hope you to have a lovely time!</p>
<p>P.S. If you get a chance sometime, could you check out my rebranded blog over at <a href="http://www.joefizz.com" target="_blank">www.joefizz.com</a>? Thanks...</p>
