#ad Cash can come back to you! Have you heard of

#ad Cash can come back to you!

Have you heard of @mymoneypocket ? It’s a free and mega easy to use cash rewards website. It features a host of retailers including B&Q, Argos, Nike, eBay and so on.

Every time you make a purchase, a percentage of your purchase will be given back to you. You can then transfer that cash to your bank account.

With news of the schools reopening, I’ve been using the site to buy sports kit for the kids as they’ve outgrown some of it since December, when they were last in school.

There’s more on the blog (link in bio) alternatively, check out @mymoneypocket on Instagram.

I was just having a clear out of old photos on my phone. It was a really odd experience.

I stumbled across pictures of my kids at sporting events, pictures of my kids at birthday parties, of me larking around at the pub, of Izzy’s first communion of visits we made to friends and family...just lots and lots of events that wouldn’t be legal at this point in time.

The oddest thing is that these events happened just over a year ago or last summer, when the Rule of Six applied and life was a little-bit-normal.

I think, like many people, I’m so focused on dealing with the day-to-day demands of lockdown life I’ve almost forgotten how often we used to get together with people for a whole host of reasons.

It’s just so incredibly odd how rapidly life has changed. Over the past year I’ve lived a more frugal life and if I’m honest, I haven’t missed all the travelling I used to do.

Even so, I long for the day we can have friends round for Sunday lunch or to see the kids take part in gymnastics competitions again.

Oh and this picture, it’s one of Oban Harbour. We paid a visit last August. If you scroll through my grid you’ll find a few other images taken in Oban as well.

It’s a @drranj #giveaway!!!

Over on the blog (link in bio above) I have a giveaway where you can win a copy of Dr Ranj’s new book for teen and tween boys called ‘How to Grow Up And Feel Amazing.’

You’ll also find a Q&A with Dr Ranj himself.

The book? Well it’s brilliant. It covers all manner of issues than young guys will face as they grow up: How their bodies change, how to handle family relationships, looking after mental health, staying fit, how to be a good boyfriend plus subjects some parents struggle to discuss such as masturbation.

Seriously, go take a look at the blog and if you have a boy in your household, get this book!

The giveaway is not endorsed and has no connection with Instagram in any way.

Making monkey bread: The most indulgent recipe eve

Making monkey bread: The most indulgent recipe ever!

In my latest post for @Microban’s Cleaner Home website, @thesproutingminds & I took on a USA v U.K. cooking challenge. Clair cooked beef Wellington & I made monkey bread.

It’s a very simple recipe...and also very sweet! My kids loved it (as did Mrs Adams and I).

Head over to @microban and thecleanerhome.com for more and do check out @thesproutingminds to see how Clair got on.
