If you are looking for some fun, family entertainment then I would highly recommend you check out The Basil Brush show that is currently in the middle of a UK tour. We saw the show today at the Lichfield Garrick (which is definitely one of the friendliest theatre’s in the UK), and we all truly enjoyed it, with belly laughs a-plenty and Basil proving he has lost non of his wit and charm after 50 years in show business.

Disney on Ice Magical Ice Festival
There are no prizes for guessing what the highlight of the Disney on Ice Magical Ice Festival was, when it opened at the Genting Arena in Birmingham last night. Frozen has been a total phenomenon, the biggest new Disney hit in years, with ‘Let it Go’ being that song that you simply cannot dislodge from your brain. And last night in Birmingham, listening to the whole of the auditorium singing along with Elsa at the top of their voices, you realised you were in the midst of a very special moment.

How Road Safety savvy are your kids?
A true story. A couple of years ago my family spent some time in Wales. It was gorgeously sunny and we were spending most of our days at the beach and having late suppers. One evening we decided to get chips and burgers for dinner and popped to Dolgellau – a nearby town. The pavements were very narrow and so we had to walk in single file – I had Joe in front of me. Suddenly the pavement stopped altogether on our side of the road, and Joe, seeing a pavement on the other side, instinctively just ran into the road to cross over. I froze and just screamed, which…
