Free comic book haul

A couple of weeks ago my neighbour had a clear out and left a massive box of comic books on her doorstep - for nice nerds only. Now, I don't like to toot my own horn, but I like to think I'm a nice nerd - so I took about half the box! I sorted…

Item of the day: 25% off Tu Clothing

I bleddy love 25% off Tu Clothing weeks. It's generally when we stock up on Jenson's next size clothes. He's starting to last longer in his sizes now but we'll be needing some 2-3 years summer clothes, so I've got my eye on some bits. If you've not had a browse yet, you'd better hurry…

Item of the day: Jumbo mouse pad from Typo

Sometimes I miss my old white desk; it was super-handy for flat lays/blog photos. But how great would this jumbo mouse pad look on my black desk?! It's a whopping A2, so great for photography, and just £20.00 from Typo.

My 2016 Goodreads Challenge

I'd had a Goodreads account for a while but not really used it until this year. When I was bored I liked to rate books in order to get recommendations but I never used it to track my reading. This year I set myself my first challenge - to read 50 books in 2016. I…

2016 Christmas Gift Guide: For Geeks

Given that this is a rather geeky blog in itself, chances are most of the posts you'll find here will feature a pretty good gift idea for a geek, but here's a little gift guide anyway. I've tried not to include items I've mentioned here before and not make it too DC-centric but some things…

Friday Favourites #22

It feels like it has been a longer week than usual. Probably not helped by the fact that I spent over 14 hours travelling to and from work this week (bear in mind I work a three-day week!) and that I went straight to bed when Jenson did on Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday night…

Item of the day: Batman planner from Moleskine

My fab friend informed me that Moleskine have just released new Batman planners and now I've got a bit of a dilemma - which one do I add to my Christmas list?! On the one hand, the Joker ones are awesome, especially this one, based on the Dark Knight marketing campaign. But size matters, so…

Ten cute toddler outfits for under a tenner

Although I'm not classing Jenson as a toddler yet, as he's not walking, if you're looking at 12-18 months and 18-24 months old clothes, like I am, that's generally the toddler stage, right? Plus the word toddler is great for an alliterative blog post title! Here are some freakin' cute outfits I've found for under…

Sunday Snapshot #45

I still haven't gotten round to sharing my home office tour as I've just been too excited about other posts, so here's a little peek at my awesome Pop Vinyls - all bought by Luke cos he's the best! If you know who the female character is you get massive cool points!

My life in photos: March 2016

We're already a week into April - seriously, where has the time gone? I've been back at work for over two months and Jenson's first birthday is less than two months away. Woah. March flew by in a whirlwind of yet more coffee and cake, plus Easter goodies and sunny walks. Take a peek at…
