We have decided to have a small holiday, from, ahem, our year long holiday. We have left our caravan behind at the marina and courageously set forth to explore Crete. Now, part of the reason for this was to see bits of Crete as yet unseen by us. But the other reason…to have access to …

Dinner time
It’s January 5th 2050, somewhere on planet earth. Freya, Flossy and Felicity have tele-transported themselves back to earth from Mars (section 16 if your wondering) for the weekend. We are proud of our kids. We did alright raising them. Mostly. But there was one thing we failed at. One thing we just couldn’t figure out. …
Great things and not-so-great things about living in a tiny house – version 2.0
As the eagle-eyed amongst you will have spotted my last blog post experienced some technical difficulties. My apologises. I can now add “having a dodgy internet connection” to my not-so-great things. So, to recap, this is a list of great things about living in a small tin box, sorry caravan, and some not-so-great things. With …

5 great things about living in a tiny house and 5 not so great things about living in a tiny house
Hello world. So, this weeks fun packed blog is all about our experience of living in a tiny house – our caravan. In our little tin box we have almost all of our worldly belongings (we admittedly still have a few boxes stored at mum and dad’s). However, we were living in a fairly large …
Learning to tell the time…or maybe not
This week we embarked on learning to tell the time. Oh my word. What was I thinking. And poor, poor Freya. We have “O’Clock” nailed. Easy. Great. Woohoo! And honestly that’s where the success ends, so far at least. “So, Freya, if this is 6 o’clock where’s half past 6? Where’s half past?” “Half?” “Yes, …
Sleepless mornings
Felicity turned 2 in October. Since then she has been in the mood to experiment. With everything. So let’s start with sleep. To her credit she’s pretty good falling asleep. However. Her experimenting with ‘when’s the right time to get up’ is testing the patience of all the Fuller’s. Remember that we are all living …
Learning our sounds by jumping
Kate and I recently read about a school that had transformed spelling by getting the children to jump on the sounds or letters. So, we thought we’d give it a shot and Flossy loved it.
Poo on the lip
Before I get cracking with this blog, if you don’t have kids you might want to look away now. So. This was a while back. We were living in Texas, over two years ago. I forget the details running up to the event but I found myself downstairs washing up. Both Flossy and Freya were …
Activity Number 3: Bird in a Cage
Yesterday was a rainy day. Not had many of them since we’ve been in Crete but yesterday was a wet one. So much so that the awning completely collapsed! Anyhow, stuck in our little metal box of a home in the pouring rain with our 3 wonderful girls called for some drastic action. It called …
Kate
I’ve not written for a few days. Writers block perhaps. More likely after the first few hilarious blogs I’ve found the pressure too much! In truth, I’ve not been in the mood. Things have been tough. Why? That’s not quickly answered. Life, and it’s many twists, take time to explain, to unfold and unpack. It’ll …
