With the summer holidays looming, or even already started in some parts of the UK, you might be lucky enough to have a holiday booked and some travelling planned. For us tech has become a great way on occupying L on long journeys but we don’t want to be disturbing other people or listening to whatever random YouTube video he’s either so good headphones are a must. We’ve been trying out the JLAB JBuddies Studio volume wireless headphones.

Using Slate in the Home
If you are looking at starting a home renovation project or are currently in the middle of one, you might well have noticed that the price of materials has skyrocketed. The latest figures show that a new build house project costs have increased from an average of £1000 per square metre to £2500 per square metre, that is a huge jump. To put this into context, a decent sized 100 square metre property will now cost you £500k to build. Not only have costs risen in raw materials and skilled labour, also the range of products available to buy in the UK has dropped, especially for natural materials, like slate.

A Treat From Lands’ End
I love a jumper. It’s the best bit about the cold weather but I often struggle with finding a nice warm jumper that I can wear comfortably under a coat. Something warm yet thin, soft and definitely not scratchy. If it looks good that’s also a bonus!
Recently the guys at Lands’ End asked if I’d like to try one of their cashmere jumpers out, it was an easy decision to say yes but a lot harder to actually choose which one I wanted to go for, they are all so nice. Classic designs that are perfect for me and a stunning choice of colours and patterns.
Hoopsy
Hoopsy is a new brand of eco pregnancy test, they make midstream eco pregnancy tests made of 99% paper – so they’re much kinder to the planet than the average test.
Now I am not in need of pregnancy tests, nor will I be in the future but I do remember taking them. Lots of them! Even when I was actively trying to get pregnant I remember feeling how wasteful the tests were, caked in plastic and not remotely recyclable, I actually moved to the little dip strips but it’s fair to say they are not quite as nice to use. Having looked at the tests Hoopsy have sent me these are actually an excellent alternative.

Playmobil City Life Rubbish Truck – Review
Just before last week’s half term break L got a rather large parcel arrive. He was very excited to open it and find some new Playmobil. We really like the Playmobil sets we already own. They are always easy to set up, so the play can start quickly and really nice and sturdy. This time round L has been sent the City Life Rubbish Truck and the first thing he wanted me to write was ‘tell them all I love it!!’

Harper Black Sheep Leather Gloves from Trendhim
I think I may have mentioned it before, but incase I haven’t, I love walking. It is one of my favourite things to do and I get really antsy if I haven’t made it out for a good few miles. When we were out the other day I really noticed the change in temperature, as did my husband. It’s getting chilly now and it’s almost time to get the gloves out, but he doesn’t have any at the moment. We knew where to turn though, Trendhim have a fabulous selection and he found exactly what he wanted with ease.
