Hello everyone! Thank you for linking up all your fabulous posts last week. I read every single one and commented or shared quite a few of them. How did you get on with doing that with the two above your own last time? Did it work? Did we spread the love a bit or link up and scarper? Do, please, let me know and we’ll try again this week.
Mari has been running a couple of brilliant competitions (including a chance to win an adventure with the scrummy Steve Backshall – how amazing is that?) and talking some more about her holiday in Spain with her Time Traveller Linky.
My week on the blog has been a bit quieter – with photos of the walk I sometimes take home after the school run – along the coast and absorbing the sounds, sights and smells of the sky and sea, plus the only other post is the kind that I hope will have real legs. It’s for people who might suddenly find themselves coping alone with their children and it’s called ‘Top Tips for Being a Single Parent.’ Even if you only know one – and, let’s face it – we all do (!) – then you might glean something helpful and some real understanding for how pressured and trying it can be, so do, please, pop over if you get the chance. As, always, it’s sprinkled with humour, so don’t expect anything too depressing!
I’ve really enjoyed your writings and photos. Some of your stories are humorous, some are moving or educational or both and some are just plain beautiful. I’ve subscribed to those that have had the most impact one way or another and am sharing some of my favourites below. Hit us with your links for next time and I’ll do the same.
Hope you all have an awesome week and I’ll look forward to seeing you then. Don’t forget to tag me on Twitter!

Is it me, or is there still a problem? I'm ending up on the Linky site.

Confused how I link up - am I missing something? Been blogging about that programme featuring an Autistic child this week and wanted to add it; https://rossmountney.wordpress.com/2015/05/15/born-naughty/ I always check out a few other posts here and have made some lovely connections!

So sorry everyone! I edited the post after it had been scheduled and the linky bit had a tantrum and didn't work. I wanted to add one more post to my favourites!
