Love is in the air

Whilst you may enjoy a cwtch with a friend or family member, a cwtch from your cariad (love/sweetheart) is pretty hard to beat. We take every opportunity to enjoy the little things, like a cwtch at home, but there are some occasions where it’s okay to enjoy the celebrations, and love is certainly in the […]

A Ways Christmas in Wales

Christmas for us started on 1st December when we opened the first door on the advent calendar. We always had a £1 chocolate advent calendar but Mum had a special mini Christmas tree that we would add a decoration to each day. Soon after a list would be written to let Santa know what we […]

Rewind: Easter for us is all about Family time. Easter mornings growing up would be spent at Church where we’d put on a play and sing and then home to a Roast Lamb dinner cooked by mum. If we hadn’t hunted out our eggs before Church this is when we would do that. One Easter […]
