Make Way – Emergency Vehicles
Friday, 09 December 2016
Earlier this week I found myself stuck in a traffic jam. Cars had come to a complete stand still, and I could hear the sirens of emergency vehicles making their way to the rescue. The majority of the drivers and I made our way to the right in a not so orderly fashion, a few

Winter Wise on the Road
Friday, 25 November 2016
Winter has very subtly started to settle in across the country, so I don’t feel like I’m quite as prepared as I would be if we had huge snowfalls and sub-zero temperatures hit hard and heavy. A few weeks back we touched on getting your home winter ready, you can find that post here, but

Keep Winter Out
Monday, 03 October 2016
I couldn’t tell you exactly how it differs, but there is a distinct change in the air – the way it smells and tastes. The crispness that urges you to put on a sweater in the morning, even though you know by noon you’ll be shedding a layer, and while some of the trees seem

Is your family fire smart?
Wednesday, 28 September 2016
This week, the kids came home from school with fire safety information and it dawned on me that we’ve never really talked about it at home. Maybe it’s because I think it will never happen to us, or maybe I feel like talking about a fire in our home is a scary thing for little
