Hello ladies and Gents,

So is it just me or has summer gone a miss somewhere.  A few weeks back they were talking about the lack of rain and hose pipe bans all over and now it seems to do nothing but rain.  The sky is full of gray clouds and I am quickly loosing my summer glow. 

So i decided that today I was going to take a look around and see what I could find to brighten up even the most dull of days.  I came across this little gem.   I have printed mine off an popped it into a frame.  Sometimes a positive message is just as up lifting as the sunniest of days.  You can down load yours here.. http://sunnyfionadesign.blogspot.com/2010/02/free-poster.html

I hope you enjoy it.. Toodle Pip Xx

Top Tips - removing lime scale from taps

As any East Yorkshire lass knows its a real tricky one removing the lime scale build up on your taps.  Living in one of the worst county's for hard water lime scale seems to grow over night.  Well I have a simple method to remove it.  Take a hole free sandwich bag, fill it with vinegar any cheap stuff will do.  Tie the bag to the tap so the lime scale covered area is in the vinegar.  Leave over night or as long as needed.  Remove the next day and clean as usual.. voilà a clean lime scale free tap.  This also works wonders on shower heads.

Ta ta for now Xx

Hello

Well I soppose its time to get this blog stared.. after months and months of talking about it I guess its about time I put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard as the case maybe.

So a little about me. I am a bride to be, the big day is coming up this September.   I am marrying the man of my dreams and I hope to make him happy for many years to come. 

As a working woman, holding down two careers one in photography and the other a part time zumba instructor sometime I can find that the house hold business can be put to the bottom of the pile.  But with just a few sneeky tricks here and there I hold it together and have a life.. I think!    So I want to share a few bits and bobs with you and perhaps pick up a few new tricks along the way.  I hope to cover everything from amazing foodie ideas to fun fitness tricks, life in yorkshire and travels away.   So make a cuppa, pull up a seat and lets get to know one another.

Tarar for now.. Xx
