3D Jigsaw Titanic Review



My 7 year old son is quite mad about the Titanic  he has books, Movies, posters and lots of other bits too. So when I saw this on Ebay for £3.99 I had to buy it for him...

It comes in lots of bits about 30 in total that you need to punch them out they are all numbered so its not to hard to put together.

With the instruction book to help guide you its as easy as 1, 2, 3.






With some clever interlocking parts and the easy instructions in was not long before the Titanic started to take some shape.



After about half an hour the Jigsaw was almost complete, much to my sons enjoyment he could not wait to get his hands on it and put it pride and place in his room.



The whole process took about a hour in total and the end results were fantastic I must say it was £3.99 well spent. I would definitely buy another one like this or more 3D jigsaws.

Ant and Dec Supercomputer comes to Plymouth



Wow omg yes it came to plymouth but by the time I got there all the places had filled up ..... Gutted but still I watched all the others trying to win tickets to Florida.

It was a fun day lots if laughs and boos...

Looking forward to watching the show tonight fingers crossed I see me in the crowd...


I am the one in yellow let me know if you see me


I will say there were a few funny contestants my fav was Lauren a girl in big glasses and a Hawaiian shift she should have won...

But a girl called Kate with red hair was the first to bag some tickets ....

But after a few hours watching I must say i was a wee bit sick of singing sea shanties about the drunken sailor ....

But it was all in good fun and some were major car crashes i never thought we would get a winner at one point ......

Half Term Ideas

Right half term has now started and now I need to keep the kids entertained on a small budget so this is what we have been upto so far this week



Over the weekend...

Bought the kids some bubbles and let them loose in the garden ....(only the top half as we have just moved and the new garden needs a lot of work ).... They had a lot of fun and even the kittens had fun chasing the bubbles.



This all ended in a huge water fight where we all got wet and ended up in a bath and then jammies... So Today was a Success!!!

Today.....

We made our own pizza and even made the Pizza dough fresh in the bread maker which Skips the kitten thought was great watching the dough been kneaded .....shame I cant keep the kids amused like this.




And while we waited we even made some biscuits too .... just a simple shortbread recipe of flour,butter and sugar ....



I made lots of different shapes and my helper had fun making his own too ... and they were super yummy so today was a success too!

Ariel 3 in 1 pods Review




I was lucky enough to test the new Ariel 3 in 1 pods for the last couple of weeks.

And i am first to admit I was unsure how well they would work as i normally prefer to use powder and not liquid tabs.

But after being quite skeptical about the claims Ariel are making about the product brightening your clothes,  I was very quickly put in my place and I did find a vast improvement as most known detergents tend to fade your clothes after each wash.

My kids clothes showed no sign of fading and even looked more rejuvenated too!

The Ariel 3 in 1 pods leaves a long lasting smell even after a few days hanging in your wardrobe.

The stain removing power is pretty good too having three kids I tend to get a few items that I normally have to wash a few times but on a few occasions the Ariel pods have got the stain out first time without having to pre-wash first.

Overall I have been very impressed with Ariel 3 in 1 pods and already have bought a few packets since my trial packet ran out, So I can safely say I will be buying them on a regular basis and really enjoyed doing my washing for once too !
