Playing Mummies and Daddies

Playing Mummies and Daddies

So last night I mentioned on social media that I often feel I'm just playing Mummies and Daddies, that I look at my cute kids then question whose they are-you see deep down I still feel 16. OK make that 18. Thankfully from the response I got online, it seems I'm not alone...

My Career as a Professional Blogger

I'm often asked what my career is and although I'm a trained, award winning filmmaker and adore directing, the last few years have seen me become a full time blogger, a career that happened organically and is one I LOVE.

The Jacques Vert Press Show

On the 2nd of July, I had a wonderfully girly day with my glam Mummy (another Mummy with style) in London as we attended the Jacques Vert press day at the very swanky No. 5 Cavendish Square.

Bing & Nero: Boy+ Robot=Fun (Book Review)

We were recently asked to review Bing & Nero: Boy + Robot=Fun and it was a joy from start to finish. Bursting with vibrant and captivating illustrations by Inci Aler, this picture book felt cinematic, the story draws you in with the imagery breathing life into the wonderfully, fun and colourful world created by author Ingrid Williams.

Yoga-Transforming My Body & Mind

I've recently become addicted to yoga, a healthy addiction naturally but an addiction all the same, I feel like yoga is a secret everyone should know, I want to scream, "Do yoga it will change your life" from the roof tops people-a bit like when Cameron Diaz informed me to drink more water in her cute but slightly patronising and highly repetitive 'The Body Book' yoga and drinking water equals happiness (pretty much).

Making #FathersDayDreams Come True with Braun

My husband Peter has always been a big Braun fan and although I love him to have a little bit of 'beardage', he trims with his trusty Braun shaver every few days, to keep things neat and smooth. And isn't he handsome!

My Time at The Cannes Film Festival

I've tried to write this post a couple of times before now but in all honesty I've only just about recovered from what can only be described as an absolutely epic time at the Cannes Film Festival, 5 days on from returning home on Saturday... One of the most famous film festivals in the world, this is the third time I've had the pleasure of attending this iconic celebration of film and it did not disappoint, let me tell you.

Oliver Brings All the Girls to the Yard

So my Oliver brings all the girls to the yard...and it's no doubt milk rather than milkshakes senoirs he's still at pre-school but funny nonetheless! Slowly I've noticed over the last few months in particular that young girls are starting to notice him. He's always been popular at nursery (in fact I remember a row of girls standing by the window waving his off aged 2 1/2) but it's becoming a little more obvious now!
