Don't Take A Risk In Fitting A Bathroom Yourself Get The Professionals In

#Ad

Bathrooms we spent rather a lot of time in them, which is when we moved several years ago we made sure we had the bathroom refitted and that bathroom belonged to our son.We haven’t got round yet to refitting our en-suite, but we will as at the moment we are helping our son through university.Our son is currently studying archaeology at the University of York and the chances are high that one day he might settle in Yorkshire. Of course with him potentially being in Yorkshire then of we will visit all the time as Yorkshire is such a beautiful county to explore and settle in.

When he does perhaps buy a house then more than likely the whole house will need doing up and could even have the horror of an avocado bathroom suite, and tackling plumbing jobs s something neither myself or my husband would attempt, we would rather leave it to the professionals. The one time my husband attempted what he thought would be a simple plumbing job by removing a radiator off the wall ended up in disaster, and we had to call out an emergency plumber. So when it comes to revamping your bathroom it is always better to use professional service and if you are in the Yorkshire area then you can get impeccable bathroom design ideas from Harrogate Bathrooms

If you're going to get your bathroom done then do it right from the start it will save you a lot of money in the long run and using professional services you will know that you're in safe hands from start to finish.Quality bathroom product and installation of a bathroom will last you a very long time and the only thing you will more than likely have to do is just give the walls a lick of paint.

Moving Out Of A Student House

After the first year of university which is usually in halls then your student son or daughter is likely to move into a shared house with newly found friends.Hopefully when they all moved in they would have immediately have sat down and compiled an extensive cleaning rota to ensure when they move out there’s less to do. That’s the parental dream it really and truly is ! and you won’t have sleepless nights about what the bathroom is going to look like when you help move them out.Making sure the house is clean when they move out is key to getting back that all important deposit but we found in our case the house was cleaner when we left it then when we moved in.Now we didn't didn't go all out Mrs Hinch on the house but between the 4 students living in the house and other parents we gave it a jolly good cleaning working on set areas each then chipping in on other areas where and when neater as they say many hands make light work.


And cleaning does have to mean all those plethora of cleaning products you can clean naturally within reason like your oven , if the thought of those oven cleaning kits stripping the skin off your hands then please don't panic.The mum of one of my sons house mates had a Lakeland oven cleaning tray  and soaked the racks using a combination of bircabonate of soda and washing up liquid which worked a treat . You had to use a little elbow grease to get off some of the remaining stuck on bits but it really wasn't hard from what I saw.

Eucerin Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm

What does cat ownership teach you ? It teaches you to have the patience of a saint as your cat steers you to make the descisions that it wants you to make.You didn’t actually think you were making the descions in your life did you ! You can’t anywhere without your cat wanting to go to just like your small child following you to the toilet !

Cat ownership will also teach you that you’re going to get chapped lips and skin etc especially when you're standing by the door while your cat decides if the weather suits it or perhaps to spook the local dogs or just be annoying.Now I don't have my full winter kit while on while I am opening the door to my cat like my bobble hat , scarf and gloves so having a product like Aquapor Soothing Skin Balm to help me survive not only my cat and winter is amazing.






Aquaphor is a product that can be used by all the family and I know my husband finds his lips get chapped when he is cycling to and from work and the winds are so icy this week so he makes sure he takes it with him in his cycling back. We are glad to have Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm as part of our skincare routine and the fact it is easy to use is such a handy size of 45ml.


It is also useful when we are out and about exploring we adore the British countryside and we are forever flying about here there and every where ( well not literally flying although I would love to fly up to Edinburgh one day )

Homeserve Winter Blogger Challenge Room Makeover

You know what's it's like when they outgrow their playroom  and it's full to the brim with all the tat you brought them the really useful stuff they pestered you for .The room becomes unloved and untouched. It merely becomes a hoarder of junk , a case of out of side out of mind but then comes  a time when the room is needed again.

This time the room is needed for GCSE study I don't what it is about boys they prefer to do their writing anywhere but a desk , this is fine when they are younger but GCSE study demands more of them. They need a space for all their books, pens and pencils , laptops and other gadgets that will aid them upon their learning discovery.

The room had a England curtains and a England lampshade not quite what a teenage boy might what or should have! Also it had a side board *don't ask ok alright it harboured more junk ! We swifly sold the sideboard on ebay to make room for the mini room make over,  thankfully we had been given a £50 B & Q voucher from Homeserve as part of a Winter blogger challenge for this purpose and it couldn't have come at a better time.

England Curtains

With the £50 you bought a new pair of curtains which are far more grown up and thermal lined so saving us poor patents money ! and a lamp for extra light when he is studying ( thus us fitted with an energy saving bulb) With the money with made from selling the sideboard we bough a desk off an auction site so he has somewhere to study. The lampshade is from a collection we already had and again this fitted with an energy saving lightbulb.

We already had the shelving unit it has been waiting for seven years to be put up , it has certainly transformed the space.

It still needs a lick of paint but for a quick turn around I don't think it's a half bad job do you.

Even the cat is finding the room cosy ! wherever I lay my cat is my home !

Instagram My Visual Storytelling

I was looking at my Instagram and I thought gosh isn’t it quite the strangest place rather like Twitter peddling it’s wares like someone at a travelling show.There is no problem if you advertise on Instagram or twitter it’s all done with the appropriate declaration.Same as with a blog post that’s advertising long as it is done correctly.

I like my Instagram to be a reflection of who and what I am and this is very important to me in the respect it helps me.I don’t viciously live my life out through social media but instead I see Instagram as visually story telling.

My storytelling as I’ve said helps not only me but may perhaps inspire other people to do the same but in their own way.Indivuality is very important to be I do want I when I want ( and no I’ve not robbed a bank )

My advice is do what you want on social media but don’t let it be a visual millstone round your neck.
