5 Tips to vacationing with pets in the Lake District
Whether you have children or not, it is not uncommon for a dog, cat, or other pet to become a member of the family. Pets can be loving, comforting, loyal, and committed to you and your family for the entirety of their lives, so it is not surprising that humans often reciprocate the same feelings towards their pet. It is because of the close knit relationships and strong bond that humans have with their pets, that they would like to include them in everything; including going on holiday. Many places are conflicted by this, however, as not everyone fancies their pets the same way. If you are planning to go…

Travel Needs Sorted With Cabin Zero
For many people, the joys of traveling and experiencing new places are slightly tempered by the luggage situation. So many airlines now charge you for putting luggage into the hold, which makes the option of ‘hand luggage only’ so much more attractive. But many of the cases which are advertised as perfect as carry-on luggage, or as airline approved, are heavy before you’ve even put anything inside, and their design means that you are not just traveling light, but are traveling very, very light indeed. Cabin Zero is a different proposition. Their bags are airline approved by most airlines (standard cabin bag dimensions of 55x40x20cm), but they are also ultra…

Visiting Harlech Castle
If you are looking for somewhere to visit this half term, you could pay a visit to the magnificent Harlech Castle. The huge fortification is one of Edward the 1st’s Welsh giants that were designed to keep Wales enclosed under English rule, and is the subject of the famous Welsh Song ‘Men or Harlech’, which talks of a siege during the Wars of the Roses. Harlech is a fabulous place to visit and relive history, a formidable Welsh giant that has history pouring through every brick. Harlech Castle has been a Welsh heritage site since 1986, but it was once much more difficult to access if you had mobility issues…

Flight Delay – Could You Claim Compensation?
This Autumn has proven to be a miserable time for travelers. Thousands of flights that have been booked and paid for have been cancelled in the Ryanair fiasco, with holidays ruined and families left disappointed. Whether Ryanair’s issues have been caused by pilots leaving to work for a rival company, working their alloted flying hours already or by pilots taking holidays, the truth is that it is their customers who have been treated shoddily and had holidays that had been worked hard for destroyed by a companies ineptness. Flight delays and cancellations are the scourge of modern day holidays. I have been lucky that the longest delay I have yet…

July Outfit Post
July was my favourite month of the year so far. This was because I spent half of the month in wonderful Cyprus, and, more importantly, I got to see my little brother get married. It was a month of sunshine and fun, and, to top it all off, there was a sleepover at Warwick Castle and a theatre night too. A busy month that was full of fun. My outfits this month all suggest sunny days and a warm climate, which makes perfect sense as Cyprus was going through a bit of a heatwave at the time (40 degrees plus most days – basically melting weather). There are new buys…
