About Me

My photo
I live in Kent with my husband, toddler Tilly (henceforth known as Monkey) and another baby due in November. We have two cats, Duncan and Lady Macbeth, and four chickens who kindly lay us eggs daily. We live in the picturesque seaside town of Broadstairs. I enjoy reading, knitting and cooking. I'm trying to be a bit 'greener' (not sure how successfully), and to be a gentle parent. Extended breastfeeding and co-sleeping don't freak me out, we use cloth nappies and try to follow some of the ideals of Attachment Parenting. If that sounds as if I know what I'm doing, I don't! I am also a psychotherapist with an interest in Focusing-oriented therapy, and I have a small private practice in the area.

Weekend in Lisbon

Probably the best table in Lisbon

Another day, another fine lunch, this time being stalked by a rather persistent gull!

Auditioning for Britain's Next Top Model... I'd rather hoped I wouldn't see this 'look' until she was at least fourteen!

That's better

oh I had read in your blog that you were off to Portugal but I assumed it was the Algarve. I live just along the coast line from Lisbon (near Cascais) - could have given you a few family friendly spots - although to be honest I find the Portuguese are very family friendly and love kids. If you come again, please let me know, I would love to meet a fellow GP member.

Oh Lou, that's such a shame! We had lunch in Cascais, that's where the scary gull tried to pinch my lunch! I think I've been a little unfair, the people were very friendly and loved the babe, but we were staying in quite a posh stuffy hotel and some of the guests were not so keen on us!
I'm very jealous, what a beautiful place to live.
