I'm 35 years old. Exactly one week today I will be embarking on my biggest adventure yet. Actually WE will be embarking on OUR biggest adventure yet....because I am most very definaitely not alone on this one. Worcester to Wellington, and back again, with my amazing husband Alex, our 1 yer old Samuel, and our 2 (and a big half) year old Amelia. Hold that thought..... Yes.

Our journey starts with a midday train to London Stansted, we're arriving ridiculously early as our flight isn't until 10 in the evening, but ... read more
