Mums, here are your chances to have some “me” time, to do chores at your “leisure”, go shopping without having keep an eye on your kids, no tantrums because they are hungry, thirsty, tired, bored or worse still need to go to the toilet at the worst possible time.

4 weeks in ….and recovering very slowly from a full on summer where ‘me’ time went out the window! Still plenty of time before and after (and sometimes during school) to get them in my hair again! So think it is the perfect balance for me now.

Always on the countdown for the next holidays!

I prefer an active house full of activity and energy. Children all grow up way too fast.

The return of school after the holidays was always a happy sad time fir me. I loved having the kids at home, driving me crazy
