A sniff upper Whisker ...

Maintaing a sniff upper whisker





This is Rollie with his stiff upper whisker they say pets are like their owner and there is no way I am this grumpy is there ? *Shrugs Shoulders...Let me think.


I like being on my own ... just like Rollie.

I spend my life at the sink ..... Just like Rollie.



I can give a grumpy death stare ... just like Rollie.

I can scratch ( if I have trimmed my toenails in bed sorry Mr T ... You don't ever ever trim Rollie claws !.

I am fussy about my food ... just like Rollie.

I can maintain a sniff upper whisker ( my hair on my lip needs shaving ) just like Rollie.

So in conclusion .. yes I am like my pet ... darn it.

POP PARTY 10 Review



Pop Party 10 is here!  Its hip its happening its poptastic pop pickers !!... awwh thats not quite the right lingo nowadays is it !

This album has bought me kicking and screaming back into the modern age I was living in the 1980's A-HA ..... Take on ME ..... NO NO quick but One Direction onto to save me from a curly wurly perm!

The album is packed to the rafters of chart-topping smashes from the biggest names in the world  pop from Maroon 5 ,  JLS to Cheryl Cole  I am sure my son knows them all it was he who informed me that GANGNAM STYLE  wasn't something rude !. There is a bonus to the album as it features a bonus DVD packed full of great music videos which trainee pop stars can dance along to. The album also includes lyric cards. Pop Party 9 sold a fantastic 322k in 2011 getting to #1 in the compilations chart.
  
This is a must have stocking filler for Christmas 2012!

So I know what I will be buying my nieces for Christmas this year.! And to prove that I am not quite the Oldie I have threatened to learn the dance moves to PSY "GANGNAM STYLE" if my son doesn't tidy his room .. oh look a tidy room amazing !

 Available to buy at a very reasonable price of £8.99 from Amazon

CBeebies The Album Review

I was waiting for this to arrive .. Working with 4 years olds I need to know all there is to know about Cbeebies and their Music!.

It has the power to bewitch and hold 4-6 years old in a sea of singing and bobbing along. It features all the newest songs from Cbeebies shows such as Rastamouse, Tweenies, Tree Fu Tom etc . Now working in Reception I have to be ofay with all the land that is Cbeebies because if you don't know the answer to a question or if you are unable to sing along to a theme tune then quite frankly you are doomed.

This is a two disc album with a total of 50 songs. Plenty of songs to keep your little one entertained and dancing. I was pleased to see there was songs that I still recognised from when my son was younger such as Balamory and the Tweenies. Getting young children moving is imperative for so many reasons its social, its fun , it tires them out ! ( a blessing for many parents)

At school in in Year 1 & Year 2 we do areobics to set the children up for their day of work it stimulates their minds and those of the teachers no doubt. However in Reception we do our own form of aerobics that this is much the shame as the rest of the school except this is geared up towards their fine and gross motors skills. Such activities are essential for the needs of the child to develop their hand writing skills which is connected to their fine motor skills. So where can you buy this from  Amazon is one of the places where you can buy this from £7.99 and I haven't worked out the cost per song.. I should have should I ! especially as I work in a school! Anyways its a bargain !

Hotter shoes 'Shake' up my world.

Hotter shoes shake up my world there's no doubt about that I  love there shoes to bits no word of a lie my feet are like a Hobbits feet. As a result of my feet looking Tolkeinish I struggle to find that design that compliment my style and my way of life. I am active as I work in a school and forever haring about either playing, teaching or running chores. So my feet have to be comfortable with Hotter shoes at school and every where I go , I feel like I am walking on a cushion of air the very moment I put them on.



Hotter shoes 'Shake' Petrol colour .


Shake's clever V-shaped throat gives such a good fit that cossets your feet in padded bliss, with a sumptuously soft silk touch lining. A light, feminine style with touch close adjustability works with tights in colder weather. Vibrant new colour Cherryberry brightens up your autumn wardrobe.



They are so comfortable I forgot to take them off. The cushioned insole supports are so comfortable you forget you've got them on and Mr T tells me to take them off. The style of the shoe suits all occasions whether you are dressing up or dressing down, step out in style!.

Hotter Shoes also offer a 100% Happy Guarantee, whereby you can return or exchange shoes that don't fit or that you decide you don't like. You will spend a pretty Penny buying them but again quality costs and your feet are so worth it, and they will really stand up to the punishment your feet go through.

And if anyone stops me and says "Wow where did you get those shoes from " I can Show them.....



Penny Style
The shoes has the web address on it just in case you forget where you ordered them from.
