AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @p AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @pottersresortsfivelakes with @slwilson84. It was an action packed three nights with a full activity and entertainment programme, great food, lovely drinks and beautiful surroundings. 

The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and they ensure that everyone has the best time possible. I don’t think I stopped smiling all weekend.

The best thing about Potters holidays is that everything is included in the price you pay. Four meals a day, all your drinks - including wine, Prosecco, most spirits and soft drinks - great accommodation and so many activities. 

I’ll write a full review soon but for now here’s a little Reel of our weekend
I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.

And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is watching her grow and what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. We could not be more proud. Love you Pickle, have a great birthday.
We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

Joules Molly Wellies from Cloggs Review

Disclosure: We were sent the featured products for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

I have been looking for wellies for ages. Actually, that’s a bit of a lie. Over the last five years I’ve had a couple of pairs of wellies but they have never fitted very well. You see, the bottom half of my legs – and the top half too – are quite chunky and so traditional wellies just don’t fit. So when Cloggs got in touch I was quite excited about getting some new wellies to review.

Review: Joules Molly Wellies from Cloggs

You see, Cloggs sell all the big name brands of footwear all under one roof. It’s not just womens footwear either – but mens and childrens too so you can kit out the whole family on the one website. I love saving time like that. So when Cloggs asked if we’d like to review for them I came across the Joules Molly Wellies and knew that they would finally fill that welly shaped gap in my life.

What are the Joules Molly Wellies like?

The Joules Molly Wellies are such a statement of the Joules brand. They come in a beautiful Joules box, beautifully packaged, and are available in such a lovely range of patterns – I chose the typical navy stripe as I have a bit of a blue and white stripe obsession – as well as a couple of stripe Joules tops too!

The wellies are a really good fit and the calf length style makes them wide fitting and perfect for me. They also have a buckle fastening on the side where you can adjust the fit slightly. The Joules Molly Wellies look just like traditional wellies – not overly short and still amazingly practical and they have fitted seamlessly into my life.

Review: Joules Molly Wellies from Cloggs

I’ve found the Joules Molly Wellies easy to clean, easy to put on and take off and really comfortable to wear. I am now thinking of any excuse to wear them as much as possible!

The Joules Molly Wellies have an RRP of £34.95

    I love wellies, I really couldn’t live without them. I think I’d have to go for full length ones because these wouldn’t cope with my muddy dog walks, they’re really lovely though.

    Oh I love them! I have the same issue, I’ve got really chunky ankles and legs that don’t go with the rest of my body. Wellies are always a pain.

    Very pretty! I also have chunky calves and have been looking for some shorter wellies. These looks great. And I am shocked you have chunky calves as you look so slim!

      I’m really heavy from my bottom down – legs like tree trunks! People often tell me I hold it well! x

    My calves are huge. The only boots I can have are from Duo (or Ted and Muffy as they’re now known) which are by calf width and the only wellies with neoprene I found that fit my calves (plus jeans) are chunky ugly men’s boots. Unfortunately I have a tendency to get mud all up my legs so need longer boots otherwise these ones would be an option. What I really need is someone to make custom fit boots – I’d definitely pay for those given how long mine last me. I was hoping that losing weight might shift a bit on my calf size (my ankles aren’t really chunky although the left one does have a tendency to swell up if I stand too much, after a DVT a few years ago), but I don’t think they’re going to go down another inch. Shame.

    I do love the stripy wellies. Very nautical.

    These are so cute 🙂 I know what you mean about long wellies being too tight, I quite often have same issue with my short legs meaning my calves are lower than the average persons.

    I have the exact same issue with wellies as well, it’s often a struggle for me getting them on and especially off, just so glad now that Joules provided a decent fit for a welly.
