UAL BLOG 16 (June 2025) – June, Fish & Chips, Long Summer Walks and the Madness of Back To School

Stella & I would like to tell you of our recent adventure.

Getting outdoors walking is not just good physical exercise but great for the mind, so parents, students and workers remember to take a break every now and then. There is so much to see, and sometimes it’s just wonderful to be outside listening to the birds. If you don’t drive, why not take a walk along the canal, river or to the nearest park, you will be surprised how much better you feel.

UAL BLOG 12 (February 2025) – Sharing the Love

Sharing the Love

Cold, dark February days can make spring feel a long way off, which is tough for everyone. Seeing generations growing up through the shops, and having my own daughter too, children’s welfare is definitely close to my heart.

UAL BLOG 11 (January 2025) – New Year All Stitched Up!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

As always, Stella’s sat under my desk, patiently waiting for her walk while I pen this latest month of ramblings, but I’m so excited to be heading into our second year of this blog.
After a very sad last half of the year, I’ve decided not to be too hard on myself with this year’s New Year’s Resolutions! (In other words, they don’t involve giving up chocolate or squeezing into Lycra).

UAL BLOG 10 (December 2024) Wrapped up for Christmas?

How are we in December already, the year is whizzing by? My friends have said it feels like they’ve only just dropped offspring off at university, and they’ll soon be back for the holidays, with mountains of washing and raids on the fridge!

New term, new website, new no-stress resolutions.
Hi, Vicki back on the blog again (and wondering why there are dog hairs on the keyboard? Would you know anything about that, Stella?)
How’s your September going?
