My Favourite Podcasts

Hi Guys 👋🏻

I have really been enjoying podcasts over the last year. A Lockdown discovery. I enjoy listening to them before bed.

I have an eye op this week so I won’t be able to read for a bit 😫

So I know that these podcasts will be my saviour.

Here are some of my favourite ones.

Holiblog: Summer 2021 pt 2

Part 2… its very late but ah well.

So, as I said, I thought I would start up the ‘Holiblog’ series for the Summer… turns out I didn’t do a very good job… because here we are, quite a few days into Autumn and I haven’t posted a Part Two: August…

So here is that part… not because anyone cares but because we did alot of fun stuff in August and it deserves its own part too.

Let’s take a look!


𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟙𝕤𝕥 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

Sleepover fun continued… off to the cinema we go!

Follower by a Nandos just me and Tim ♡

A yummy lunch with my friend Charlotte.

Lunch and a catch up with my friend, by the Waterfront. Followed by a stroll into town.

Yolo with my Rolo

The final Youth Club Farewell 😥

The Youth Club that I went to as a teen and have volunteered at for over ten years is closing. It is really sad and the end of an era! The leaders who used to look after us are now our friends and we had some great times that we will treasure fondly.

𝕊𝕒𝕥𝕦𝕣𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟟𝕥𝕙 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

We celebrated our oldest friends (who we’ve known the longest, since we were 3!!) 30th Birthday.

We had some nibbles, drinks and a noce catch up.

I can’t believe we are all turning 30 🎈

𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟠𝕥𝕙 – 𝟙𝟙𝕥𝕙 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

This was our Summer holiday this year and because of COVID we thought we would keep it local.

We went camping (for the first time!!) Staying at Waveney River Centre in Norfolk. It was nice and relaxing and a bit different. We had some nice meals, played games, went on walks in the sunshine, swam and met up with my Auntie and Cousin.

𝕊𝕒𝕥𝕦𝕣𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟙𝟜𝕥𝕙 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

Me & my twin sister had organised our bestfriends Hen and finally (thanks COVID!!) it happened.

And it was SO much fun! We started with an Escape Room, followed by lunch, an amazing, hilarious, tipsy Cocktail Masterclass, Dinner and more cocktails 🥂

𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟙𝟝𝕥𝕙 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

We started off with fun at ‘YaYas House’ a stay and play play centre, which would of 100% been my dream as a child, with its themed rooms.

The boys came over for a sleepover – its so good to be able to do them again.

𝕋𝕦𝕖𝕤𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟙𝟟𝕥𝕙 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

Today, we celebrated my Aunties 70th birthday. It was a lovely family get-together.

𝕊𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕒𝕪 𝟚𝟚𝕟𝕕 𝔸𝕦𝕘𝕦𝕤𝕥 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟙

An excellent, if not a little, messy (and expensive) day starting with a yummy bottomless brunch. I work with great people.

Celebrating the birthdays of my two fave little boys 💙 My Nephews.

I got my husband Tim a Meerkat experience at our local zoo. This was part of his 30th birthday present. He loved it.


I hope you had a brilliant Summer!

Holiblog: Summer 2021

Hi guys 👋🏻

I thought I would start up the holiblog series again, for this summer.

Here is how I have spent the later part of July, since the summer holidays began.

It’s been a fun start.

What I’ve read so far… 2021 Edition 📚

Hi Guys 👋🏻

I thought I would do a halfway through the year, book update!

Every year I have done a reading challenge of sorts, and this year, instead of monthly or quarterly updates I thought I would do two Six month updates.

So, here is my first reading update of 2021, January – June.


[Disclaimer: I’m not that fast a reader sometimes, it comes in fits and spurts, and I’ve had lots of revision to do, so its not as long a list as I’d like]


January – June 2021

The Winter Garden By Heidi Swain

The Land of Stories: A Grimm Warning By Chris Colfer

Because of You By Dawn French

The Lido By Libby Page

Push by Ashley Audrain

The Holiday by T.M Logan

A Taste of Home by Heidi Swain

Only Time Will Tell By Jeffrey Archer

The Sins of the Father By Jeffrey Archer

Until Next Weekend By Rachel Marks

The Dead Fathers Club By Matt Haig

Saving the Day By Katie Fforde

The Motive By Khurrum Rahman

Best Kept Secret By Jeffrey Archer

My favourites so far are, of course the Heidi Swain novels ‘The Winter Garden’ & ‘A Taste of Home’ as well as ‘Until Next Weekend’ ‘Push’ & ‘The Holiday’ which I could not put down. I love that feeling.

The suprise was the Harry Clifton series by Jeffrey Archer, the perfect example of not judging a book by its cover.

Have you read any of these books??

Until Next Time,

Roseanne 🙂

Half Term Diary 🌞

Hi guys 👋🏻

10 & 5 👰🏼💗🤵🏻

11.06.11

I thought I would do a little post to comemorate our anniversay.

I usually post a little something each year because, after all, our wedding is the reason I started this blog. I wanted to document the planning and experience of our wedding.

I can’t believe its been 5 years. It was a wonderful day.

The date is the same as our original anniversary as I really wanted to get married on our anniversary.

So, today also marks 10 years together and that is absolutely mad. How time flies.

Especially when you are having fun 💗

To my husband…

I wish I could put into words how wonderful you are, but my words would never do you justice.

From our 2011 trips to the Heathlands, Nights out, Uni Visits & Cinema dates to now, 2021 … having just come out of a year of doing none of those things because we are in the midst of a Pandemic (who’d have thought it aye)

Thanks for always making me laugh, for always taking care of me and for always dancing like a fool around the lounge with me.

Marrying you is one of the best choices I’ve ever made. You are my bestfriend.
10 years later and I still find myself thinking, Wow, soulmates really do exist.

the luckiest.


Until Next Time,

Happy Mothers Day 2021 💐

I used to share snap shots of my life on her, things we had done to celebrate different occasions, fun days out, holidays, however, obviously this last year has been quite an unpresidented one.

I feel like I haven’t really shared much of what I have been doing because really we’ve all been doing the same haven’t we! Staying home, Locked down, on and off since Summer, working and just trying to stay safe.

But I thought to myself, why not share the celebrations we are still having, as wierd as they may seem in comparison to how it used to be, because it’s all we’ve got at the moment and we should still be grateful for what we can do during such a mad time.


Today is Mothers day and I have shared on here, for several years, our tradition of our Mothers Day, homemade afternoon tea.

This year was a very 2020/21 affair, via Skype, but it still involved Afternoon Tea so no complaints here.

We ordered the individual Afternoon Teas from a small local business (All Covid safe) and enjoyed them at our own homes via Skype.

They were delicious and it was nice to be able to continue the tradition, even if it was a little different to usual.

Most of our ‘Usuals’ seem a distant memory right now don’t they 😣 but, it’s also so important to embrace what we can do, communicate and spend time together however we can, whilst staying safe, because we can still stay in touch and stay connected, and we will all be back together properly one day.

It gets to everybody at some point, this wierd time we are a part of, but I’m so very conscious that there are people in such a worse situation than me, who have experienced some of the worst times during this pandemic.

If the worst part of this whole situation, for me is that I can only speak to people through a computer then I’ll be forever grateful. I know some people have it much worse.

It’s still ok to find it hard though and I hope you’ve had a little bit of light and joy come your way today!

Harry Potter Geek Gear Haul ⚡

Hi guys 👋🏻

So, late last year I got an awesome glass cabinet for all of my Harry Potter Merch!

If you’ve been around here before (or you know me) you’ll know that I’m a massive Harry Potter fan.. ⚡

So this is very exciting!! Any Potterheads on here!?!

I will be doing a post on here, of my HP Cabinet once it’s as I want it, so keep your eyes peeled for that 👀

Let’s get into the haul…

There was a sale on Geek Gear and I just couldn’t resist buying a few new bits that I didn’t have.

Mini Skele-Gro Bottle 💀
Umbridge Cat Plate 💝
Yule Ball Invite 🏰
Neville’s Remembrall 🌟
Hogwarts Crest Print ❤💚💛💙

I love that the items came packed in (what I assume is intentional) Weasley Wizard Wheezes coloured packaging 👌🏻

I can’t wait to add these to the cabinet.

The print is going up in our room, with our other ones.

And I’m going to keep my eyes peeled for more cool HP merch, because now I have a cabinet I can never have too much haha 🤣🤣


Have you guys got any cool HP Merch recommendations?

Or personal favourite pieces?

Until Next Time,

A Book Haul: Xmas 2020 📚

Hi guys 👋🏻

So, this is my last post with the word Christmas in, honest!

Here is my book haul. I was very lucky to receive quite a few lovely books for Christmas this year, my ideal gift, so I thought I would share them with you.

It’s quite a mixed bag so let’s take a look…

  • Ant and Dec Once Upon a Tyne

I LOVE Ant & Dec, they are my absolute faves so I was super excited to receive this. This one I requested, so I hoped it was on it’s way. It’s really funny so far.

  • Finding Love at the Christmas Market by Jo Thomas

I had seen this one advertised and heard alot of great things (plus I love a cute, warm, festive story) so I was pleasantly suprised when my sister got me this. I’ve finished it and it was as lovely and heart warming as I’d have hoped. Perfect for Christmas & Blue January!

  • ‘Still Friends’ 25 Years of the TV show that defined an era. By Saul Austerlitz

I can’t wait to start reading this. F.R.I.E.N.D.S is my ultimate fave TV show and my lovely friend bought me this for Christmas, knowing I love both books & friends. Definatly onto a winner with this one.

  • Collectors editions of: Peter Pan By J M Barrie, A Christmas Carol By Charles Dickens & The Railway Children by E Nesbit

I discovered these in my local indie bookshop. They are absolutely beautiful. The covers are amazing 😍 I have wanted to add some classics to my collection for a while so I picked these out and my Mum and Dad gave them to me for Christmas.

  • I also got two illustrated Harry Potter books; ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’ illustrated edition & ‘Quidditch through the ages’ illustrated edition

If you’ve followed me for a while you’ll know that I’m a MASSIVE!!! Harry Potter fan, so I was super excited to add these to my collection. I had asked for the illustrated ‘Goblet of Fire’ but I wasn’t expecting the ‘Quidditch through the ages’ illustrated version… IT LOOKS AMAZING.


Did you get some books for Christmas?? How are they??

Until Next Time,

Roseanne 🙂
