It’s Monday again and for once I am sitting in silence, listening to the radio all on my own. Time for my weekly Monday Happy List post!

Exploring Avebury Stone Circle with children
Avebury is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, around the pretty village of Avebury in Wiltshire.

Could you be Disney On Ice’s Fit To Dance champion?

Scooby-Doo Live! at the London Palladium
Our summer holidays have been so much fun this year! Today we received an invite to see Scooby Doo Live! at the London Palladium. I loved Scooby Doo when I was a kid and we love to sit down and watch episodes together. We received a lovely parcel with our golden ticket to the theatre,…
Getting the most from a scooter {tips and tricks from Halfords}
There’s something about long summer days that makes us all want to be outside as much as possible. We’ve had some lovely weather lately, packed up a picnic and gone out for the day.
