Disneyland Paris – Travel Diary – Day 2 and 3

February 19, 2016

If you're following on from my Day One travel diary then thank you for coming back. Day two and three fell over the weekend for us and the official start of half term for us Brits which meant on the Saturday it as absolutely heaving. If you can visit midweek then I think you'll be able to enjoy so much more. It was also incredibly wet on the Saturday raining all day which I think caused my daughter to be quite sick that evening with a raging temperature. I would strongly advise taking ... Read more

Disneyland Paris – Travel Diary Day One

February 18, 2016

Our 4 nights and five days in Disneyland Paris have been amazing and I wanted to share a run down of our time there and some of our favourite pictures. We left our home to travel up to London on Thursday evening as we had a hotel booked so we could catch our early morning Eurostar train at 5.40 am.

One of the most common questions I get asked when someone says how much money can I make working from home? And I always give the same answer. You can make as much as ... Read more

Finkley Farm Magical Christmas

December 24, 2015

On Christmas Eve Eve we spent the day trying to be festive and jolly, visiting friends and family and of course meeting Father Christmas at Finkley Farm Park which is situated close to the Walworth industrial estate in Andover. It's quite easy to find and very well signposted. There is a small car park at the park for those that drive and for those, like us, visiting by public transport you can get the Wheelers 13 bus which will drop you fairly close to the farm. It's been a part of my ... Read more
