Well, hello there you lovely lot! I hope you’re all doing well? I’ve just sat down in our new house in France (still surrounded by boxes and clutter) to bring you this month’s Newbie Round-up. We’ve been here for around a week and I’m longing for everything to have a place and for our routine to return.
So far the cooker broke, the hot water wouldn’t work, and the dog jumped out of the window! You can see it has been fun and games. I’m also looking forward to Britmums Live this year. I’m a finalist for the third year, this time in the Social Media category and I’m also a speaker which I’m thrilled about. Most of all I’m so excited to meet some of you there.
Let’s crack on with some super talent from our ‘newbie’ pool of bloggers. As always I was totally spoilt for choice, these bloggers are sharing their struggles, advice and feelings in such an open way. A way that really should be commended. It takes guts to share yourself so openly with the world and I’m thanking you all for sharing your stories to help others.
