With gathering restrictions eased further and the summer season here, we’re finally able to get together with friends & family again, and begin having fun times like we used to.
Add to that the Euro 2020 tournament being in full swing, when is a better time than to have a garden gathering with a barbecue? A BBQ is one of my favourite things in the summer – I’d have one every week! Read more
When moving home, or moving out of your current home in order for renovation work to take place, it can be very important to identify when it’s best to either move in, or once again return to the property. Why is this? Well, not all properties are habitable, and perhaps you knew that when purchasing an older house you needed to invest in, or perhaps you’ve been made aware of this thanks to the extensive renovations you have planned.
I think we’ve all realised that Christmas is going to be a lot different this year than it usually is. No trips out, no big gatherings, no Christmas parties. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t still enjoy all of the festivities, right? Other than spending time with family and seeing them open their presents (I’m more of a giver than a receiver), do you know what my favourite part is? FOOD! A lot of people have a lot less disposable income this year too, so we need to find savings anywhere we can. That’s where Jack’s Supermarket comes in handy. When you head to your local Jack’s you can find all your festive favourites for less!
Christmas is almost here once again, and although this year has felt like more of a challenge than most – a lot of us are still looking forward to spending some quality time with the people we love over the festive season.
If you are hoping to host some of your closest family and friends at home this Christmas and want to make the most of the time – there are some great DIYs you can do to up your hosting game and really make an impression on your guests.
Here are some of the fun things you can do this winter to host better at home.
2020 has seen gardens getting more attention than normal. For starters, with many people furloughed from work or locked down due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, they have had more time to spend on doing up their gardens. We also had some very un-British like good weather at Easter, meaning we could all get outside with our spades and shovels and enjoy getting our hands dirty. As we moved through the summer and the gradual lifting of restrictions, we were able to see friends and family in our gardens – socially distancing, of course!
As we move through to winter and the festive season, we might not be planning on sitting out in the garden any time soon, and we are all hoping that by the time the warmer weather comes around, having to sit outside to see our loved ones will be a thing of the past. However, we can still put plans into place to make our garden the super social place it has been in 2020. Here, we look at how to make your garden visitor worthy. Read more
