18 months on & the plot was lost!

18 months on & the plot was lost!

It’s been hard to know how to focus this website and ‘non- profit organisation’ in memory of Gumby. It’s only been 18 months today since he was so suddenly taken from us and in some ways it’s no time at all but in others it feels like so much longer. While I cannot say that […]

Plastic free experiment #2 Off to a very slow start

Plastic free experiment #2 Off to a very slow start

Hello hello! Ok so living plastic free is REALLY tough! I cannot believe how much plastic there is absolutely EVERYWHERE! And I am so much more reliant on it than I even suspected I was. I really thought after my first post about this that it would be easy to go shopping and reduce the […]

How to turn camping with kids into a weeks worth of cheap & easy holiday entertainment

How to turn camping with kids into a weeks worth of cheap & easy holiday entertainment

Summer holidays…..hands up whose excited? Hands up whose feeling slightly hysterical at the fact that we’re one week down, 5 more to go?! While it’s great to spend more time with the kids, holidays do seem to make the whole experience so much more intense. Do you feel that there’s a certain expectation and pressure […]

Trash Talk Thursday (1)

Trash Talk Thursday (1)

In response to my post about SUP’s and wondering if it is possible to live plastic free, our mum has written something about her thoughts and experiences from the early days of recycling in South Africa. The ‘Conserve Our Resources’ path started for me in South Africa back in 2003 or thereabouts. Until then there was […]

How To Make A Daisy Chain

How To Make A Daisy Chain

I don’t remember learning how to make a daisy chain when I was a kid. I think I was quite old but I love the idea of making them now. So much so, that today when I took my 3-year-old out for a walk, it was me getting all excited to make one but when it […]

Living Life Plastic Free Experiment (1)

Living Life Plastic Free Experiment (1)

As I was pondering in Is it possible to live plastic free? I am up for the challenge of trying to reduce the amount of single use plastics we use as a family. I’ll be starting my Living Life Plastic Free experiment from today. I say experiment because I know it’s going to be tough and there […]

Waz – SUP? Is it possible to live Plastic Free?

Waz – SUP? Is it possible to live Plastic Free?

SUP’s…. Otherwise known as single use plastics. Have you ANY idea how much these are used in your every day life? Do you even know what they are? I have to admit, before this week I had never heard the term. Just think about it for a minute. What are some of the activities you might do […]

Time for Toads

For some reason, toads get a bit of a hard time when compared with frogs and yet they are just as important and many people aren’t sure what the difference between the two actually is.

Rodent? Really?

Rodent? Really?

It takes all sorts to make the World an interesting place and the diversity of Man’s interests and passions is truly breath-taking! When it comes to the fauna of our natural world, this diversity shows itself in which creatures we are drawn to. No doubt there are wise psychologists and the like who can explain […]

Lunar Tides & Surfing the Severn

Lunar Tides  & Surfing the Severn

The tides were particularly large on the weekend of the 22nd February 2015, leaving Ogmore beach, where we scattered dad’s ashes in December 2013, totally different to how it had ever been before. While there has been a difference every time we have visited the beach, this was particularly striking as there were large expanses of […]
