I’m Stacey, a bookworm (or should that be dragon?!) from a quaint hamlet on the outskirts of Lincolnshire. In my late 30s, I’m a devoted mum to two wonderful boys who are both autistic—a unique aspect that makes them different, not less. I also share my home with my husband and Barney, my lovable Frenchie x Beagle.

Our favourite five – April

Updated on

Our Favourite Five is a monthly linky from Maria at Suburban Mum – there are no strict rules, just that you can link up a list of five of your favourite things from the last month.

Five men’s shoe styles for summer

Never mind the children, but if your husband or partner is anything like mine, then they go through shoes like nobody’s business! I think the main reason for this though, is that he always buys cheap shoes and as he has problems with the arch of his foot, he wears through them really quickly so doesn’t like to buy really expensive ones although I guess they would last longer if they were better quality.
