Review – Wonderlights

Wonderlights is a very impressive light trail through the grounds of Palmerstown House Estate in Co Kildare.

My first thought (after f#*k you Daily Mail) was I hope any women working for that rag are thoroughly ashamed. Now it’s working mums, next week it’ll be stay at home mums, there’s always something mums are being… Read More Working mum skills

Good Friday

We had an excellent Good Friday this year. The sun was shining (which considering it was hailing last week is pretty good in itself). We went for a lovely walk in the park and had lunch in a cafe, then a few drinks in the pub in the afternoon – but which of those activities… Read More Good Friday
