I’ve just written a review of Mess Around North Surrey - messy play sessions in and around Staines, Sunbury, Byfleet and surrounding areas. I’ve just re-read it and will edit the repetition when my phone lets me log in to Google but have a read anyway! google.com/maps/contrib/1089…

a sort of guess the temp competition... When will we see our first +20c of 2020? I'll go with 18th March 📈 Reply with your guess if you fancy. It can be any date in March, April or even May

The boys had a ‘cracking’ afternoon today!

My 3yo loves his music. Bohemian Rhapsody, Zombie - ‘the girl one’ (Cranberries) or ‘the boy one’ (Bad Wolves), Giant by Calvin Harris. Wide ranging. Today he asked for the one that goes ‘far away’. It was on the radio on @HeartLondon or @RadioX No clue. Twitter - Help!

The boy’s only gone and solved it... singing while eating dinner: ‘Far away, far away, take a breath...’ the tune was familiar... Turns out it is played on mummy’s @HeartLondon rather than daddy’s @RadioX youtu.be/KxnpFKZowcs
50 followers! Cheers all. Here’s a taste of the messy fun we’ve had this afternoon, preparing a new Mess Around activity for Feb’s event... @MessyNSurrey #borntomessaround

.@StarbucksUK just checking the rules for Welsh coffee... should it contain coffee? Ordered my wife a Caramel Almond milk Latte from your store near Dolgellau. She didn’t sip it until we were back on the road, but we’re both pretty sure there’s no coffee in there!!
...because mummy’s not deaf.
...because I’m not mummy, and, despite settling and snuggling in for his milk, he then heard mummy answer the front door. #SoundON
...because it’s bedtime and I’m not mummy.

Genuinely accidentally ordered a well overpriced ice cream while browsing Uber Eats. (That’s a real thing.) put a banana split into the shopping cart to see what kind of stupid delivery charge they’d add on. 35 mins and £11 later:
