What a week! πŸ˜₯

Normally when you come back from annual leave, the holiday blues hit when the reality of Monday morning arrives. This week though? I barely even had time to unpack before it all kicked off β€” cancelled flights, customers stuck in resort, others mid-transit.

Just when you think everything’s sorted, the advice changes. Flights change. Schedules change. And you start the whole process again.

But we do it.
We keep going.

Customers who were due to transit through Dubai rerouted. Alternatives found, secured, booked and ticketed. Customers who were stuck in Dubai finally home safe β€” with me checking flight radar at a level that was probably bordering on stalking. ✈️

Massive credit to the incredible pilots and cabin crew working tirelessly to get everyone home safely. You’re doing an amazing job.

This week looks like more of the same, but today I’m taking a moment to pause. A poorly child at home and weather that can’t decide what it’s doing means I’m debating flip flops one day and snow boots the next! β„οΈπŸ©΄

And finally, a huge thank you to my wonderful clients who have been extra patient while we ride this particular storm together. Your understanding means more than you know.

Picture of a family effort for World Book Day - it definitely takes a village πŸ’•

#2016

Saw us leave our home in Banbury to find our forever (family) home in Sutton Coldfield.
We travelled a lot! πŸ˜‚πŸ™ˆ
Dublin for a cheeky weekend getaway with my folks; a bucket list trip to the Canadian Rockies - utterly incredible and ending this trip in Seattle. Then finally a return visit to New York, so the husband could run the New York Marathon! πŸƒπŸ»β€β™‚οΈ bursting with pride!

The year I turned 30! What a blast and with celebrations lasting way into the year, it’s going to be different celebrating 40 this year πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚

We started renovated the house from top to bottom from 2017 onwards and there is always something to keep us (mainly Tom 🀣) busy.

Ten years on and so much has happened. Now; the house is a home, my business is going from strength to strength (in which I meet some wonderful clients who truly turn into great friends) a crazy cocker spaniel in tow as well as a beautiful Daughter - it’s not easy and everyday is a school day or I’m winging parenting to the max, but my bucket is a little bit full πŸ₯°

Let’s see what the next ten years have in store. So long as my family and friends have health & happiness, that’s all that matters.

Happy New Year everyone! πŸŽ‰βœ¨

First week back and we’ve already ticked off black ice, minus 8 temperatures… and tonight a full-on snow blizzard. One minute it was absolutely chucking it down with rain, and within the hour we had a decent helping of snow. Of course we did πŸ™ƒβ„οΈ

Christmas with a two-year-old was everything and more. Father Christmas delivered big time with the star (from the sky, obvs πŸ™„) and a teddy bear, now lovingly named Bobby Bear 🧸✨
And let’s be real…
The husband and I only argued a handful of times
The child only had approximately 756,000 meltdowns (Christmas Eve to Boxing Day)
And the dog? Well, he only got shouted at a gazillion times for hoovering up her dropped food off the floor πŸΆπŸ˜…

Is anyone else currently sat daydreaming about their summer holidays…or just me? β˜€οΈπŸΉ I’m over here thinking about where I can escape to in the next two weeks, never mind waiting another six months πŸ˜‚

New year, new travel plans ✈️
Where will 2026 take you?

I may or may not be reaching a very high, nicely rounded number in age this year πŸ‘€πŸŽ‚ so naturally we have some rather exciting plans to celebrate… possibly, definitely more than once.

If you’re after a personal, tailored approach to booking your holidays, then get in touch and let’s see where the sunshine takes you β˜€οΈπŸŒ
Maybe not tomorrow though because, obvs, it’s a snow day β„οΈπŸ˜‚ (no joke).
I’ll get Margot cracking on with some enquiries β€” she loves to talk planes, trains and automobiles πŸ’•βœˆοΈπŸš†πŸš—β˜ƒοΈ

Here’s to embracing the madness, surviving winter, and dreaming of sunshine 🌞
Happy New Year!

What a busy summer! πŸ’•

From 40th Birthday celebrations for the husband with an incredible lunch at orellerestaurant; to early 70th Birthday celebrations for my parents, with a 1950’s themed evening - some truly special memories were made.

We have thoroughly enjoyed holidaying in the UK this year and August took us back to Bridlington where we all enjoyed the fun of the beach and amusements. Then we moved across to some peace and relaxation with a return journey to the Yorkshire Spa Retreat - we really do love it here as it’s within easy reach of beaches for Whitby and Scarborough. I think the child and the dog are thoroughly exhausted!

I think I’m looking forward to a little break in September now πŸ˜‚

What did your summer look like? Where are you heading/planning next?

So long, June 2025! What a month β€” packed with celebrations and just a tiny sprinkle of sadness.
Margot turned two and is officially a whirlwind of fun β€” our very own Two-nado! πŸŽ‰πŸ’₯

Our 13th wedding anniversary celebrations, and a short break to Pembrokeshire on our quest to find puffins β€” and after some eager searching, we finally spotted them! 🐦✨

We enjoyed a fantastic hour-long boat trip along the stunning coastline, surrounded by breathtaking views and dozens of puffins fluttering and diving around us. Seeing these charming seabirds up close was truly unforgettable and made all the waiting worthwhile.

Our lodge accommodation was superb! Pet-friendly luxury lodge β€” the perfect place to relax and unwind with stunning views across the estuary. Spacious, beautifully appointed lodges, a soothing hot tub, a gorgeous on-site restaurant, and indulgent spa facilities was the ultimate getaway.

A quick pit stop at a fab dog-friendly beach in Port Talbot for the birthday girl to build her sandcastles πŸ–οΈπŸΎ β€” and the sun hasn’t stopped shining since! 🌞

Celebrations have been going strong all month, and now I’m ready to rest… though when did work start feeling like a rest?! July, you better be gentle!
