My first week of the summer holidays and I’ve never been so busy! I’m quite puffed out in all honesty and looking forward to a weekend at Butlins Bognor Regis as part of the Butlins Ambassador programme. I have every finger and toe crossed that the sun keeps in shining for us but even if it doesn’t, there is so much to do as we found out on our Skegness trip that there is no risk of being bored!
The Olympics have started and I am loving it! What a fabulous opportunity to have such a great sporting event on our doorstep, it’s drawing attention from all over the world and despite all the controversy I am sure we’ll pull off an excellent Games, after all we are good at throwing parties, it’s our bag!
When you hit the home button on the Brit Mums Blog you’ll see the navigation bar at the top in blue, Home, About and so on, cast your eyes underneath and you’ll see a grey bar too. Now here’s the good bit…
