Staying At YHA Oxford And A Competition For You To Stay Too

Tilly and I travel A LOT to foreign countries because travel is cheaper than travelling in the UK. But recently she asked about an English town and I realised we don't travel enough in this country. When the older kids were little, we travelled the whole country in search of making memories and we had some of our most memorable holidays in the UK. These days, we just hop on a plane or a bus and travel to Europe. So Tilly can tell you a lot about European history, but nothing about the history of her own country. This had to change!

Choosing A Reliable And Trustworthy Car Dealer

Buying a used car is often the only affordable way to get on the road. But you really should research the car before you buy it. After all, you don't want to end up with a car that is prone to breakdowns and spends more time with a mechanic than it does with you. But there are a few things that you need to think about before buying a car. Especially if you are using it to transport your family around in or if you are travelling long distances all of the time.

Even buying a used car that is a year old, you save a lot of money compared to a new one because they lose so much value as soon as you drive a brand new one off the forecourt. But with car salespeople trying to sell a used car, you need to make sure you are making a good purchase and not buying something they need to get rid of. Here are some tips for what to check, when you are buying a used car.

Win A Christmas Hamper

Who is looking forward to Christmas? We are in the house of Tilly. We had such a hard up one last year, but this year we are in a much better situation both financially and mentally. Tilly has made her shopping list and I am lucky that it only has three things on it. She wants Makeup, A Nintendo Switch and a giant LOL Surprise. She has two things from her list and some lego. She still believes in Santa, which is good. I always think it is going to be the last Christmas of her believing but she always surprises me and says she still believes. I don't know, maybe it is her, keeping the magic alive for me. 

Spotting Signs That Your Child Needs a Tutor

There’s no shame in hiring a private tutor to support your child through their exams. In fact, it’s a great way to help them, not only academically, but on a more personal level. A tutor is essentially another role model for your child. Lots of parents look into private tuition for their kids during the GCSEs and A Levels when they are under more pressure to succeed and the subjects become more of a challenge. You might not realise at first that your child could use the help of a tutor, which is a why a Sixth Form in Hertfordshire have put together the following information on the signs that parents should look out for.

How To solve Every Man's Hair Problem

Recently we wrote about how to hide hair loss in women with hair toppers and how to thicken hair by using hair extensions. Male pattern baldness is a common problem with men as they get older, and as many men lose their hair, they also lose their confidence. This makes meeting new people difficult. There is an answer to your problem though. with NewHairLine. But when it comes to men, if it is often difficult to find excellent and professional service, aim to solve every man's hair problem. 

Winter Nail Trends You Need To Try!

Winter comes with so many beautiful colours – from the deep reds, oranges and purples you associate with sunrise in the morning, to the crisp blues, silvers and whites when the frost bites. When it comes to your nails, it’s super easy to match your nail polish and nail art to this chilly and festive season. 

Human Hair Toppers, Hair Extensions And Wigs

Party season is coming and it's time for people to start thinking about their hair and how they are going to have it for the holiday season. Unfortunately, my own hair isn't very long and I am always wishing it was longer. There is a great alternative to my own hairstyle and that is to add human hair toppers and hair extensions and wigs which can be customized to my own hair.

Until my friend got into hairdressing it wasn't something that I really thought about but now, I know my hair can be completely changed in appearance with the help of some human hair toppers and hair extensions. Human hair extensions are so much easier to work with than synthetic hair extensions because you can treat them like your own hair and use your hair appliances.

Places To Visit On An Overnight Trip To Paris

As a family, Tilly and I absolutely love to travel! We are lucky because we live on the Kent coast and it means we literally live on the gateway to Europe. It is so easy for us to pop over and take an overnight trip to a major European city like Amsterdam or Paris. Last Spring, I took Tilly for her first overnight trip to Paris. It's so easy to take a break to Paris by booking through the Voyage Privé website. 

But once you have booked your trip to Paris, you need some things to do whilst you are there. There is so much more to Paris than theme parks like Disneyland Paris and Parc Asterix. There are culture and shopping! Today we have a variety of things for you to do on your weekend away. The best thing is Paris has a really good metro system so you can get around the city, really easily. But they also have a good bus network and you can reach a lot of things in the city centre on foot. So what are our top things to do in Paris?
