Weekly Update 10 – Days off
I was back at work this week, boooo. But it was only a short week as it was bank holiday Monday and then I was off again on Friday. I tried in vain to book a last-minute glamping break, but I just couldn’t get anything in my (low) budget. So it was day trips and chill out time again. So here is weekly Update 10! Friday We decided to go to the seaside, after having a quick look we decided to go to Cleethorpes. I know, not the most exotic of locations, but it was only an hour and three quarters away. Just me Eddie, Chloe and Luna went. One…

I join blog follow trains on Twitter, Instagram etc, follow the rules and follow people and then they follow me.

Booking a pet friendly UK break
Over the summer, we have not booked any big holidays and instead decided to do short breaks in the UK that are pet-friendly. Things we considered when booking the pet-friendly break…. 1 they needed to be cheap – we are on a budget this year more than ever. Anyone with kids know how expensive they can be (it never seems to get any cheaper) 2 they needed to be family friendly – neither of us wanted a rowdy, boozy venue. We like it quiet and peaceful! Must be getting old 🙂 3 they needed to be pet-friendly (specifically dog-friendly). Some of the time when you say dog-friendly you only get…
