Perfect top

I spotted this tiny top, which is perfect, as I was contemplating the latest faux-pas from Belle Mere. When I mentioned TheGR had an editing job, she offered to help, saying: ‘you know I write, I can give him all sorts of advice’. The penny didn't really drop until TheGR told me she'd been bumbling on about writing and how much she could help him. Aha, so the fact your son has been working in film for the past 10 years had passed you by. Editing film not editing words. I feel slightly mean posting that, but perhaps it is better to share. 

Here, I share this find: a mustard yellow sweatshirt by La Redoute available in ages 3 to 12 at £11.00 plus postage.

Captain America Marvel X Trainers by Clarks

I spotted these rather cool Captain America, Marvel X shoes for kids at Clarks. I do like a Clark’s shoe for primary school age children, call me old fashioned ’cause I am. Available in infant and full sizes, although sadly only in a wide fitting, which is a shame as Erbie has narrow feet.

Star Wars Christmas Advent Calendar 2018

I know, I know, it's too early to think about Christmas, we have Halloween and Fireworks before then. It's just Smyths Toystore have a rather good offer on the Star Wars Advent calendar this half term, (coupled with free delivery on Lego products over £15) which means you can pick up this advent for under £20 without going anywhere. Lazy - moi? Bargain - oui!
