A Day Out at Weald Country Park

Jupiter really loves deer. She grew up in a small town that had a lot of deer, deer hunting, and often just wild deer wandering about. As we have been going on more creative date nights, due to most things being shut, I surprised her with a trip to Weald Country Park – which ended up being so popular, that we went back with the kids. This time of year is when all of the deer are out, making it a perfect wintertime activity. Weald Country Park is free to enter – although if you park nearby you’ll need to pay for the car park – and contains a few different park areas, trails, a pond, deer and a cafe.

Over the last couple of year’s we’ve always made an effort to get the children along to see Santa for Christmas when we can, but what with lockdown, quarantine and more, we’ve not been able to get the children along to see him this year.

As Christmas Jumper Day (today) rapidly approached, we found ourselves searching online and looking from store to store for Christmas jumpers that would be just perfect for Robin and Amelia.

In the end we ended up finding a Santa-themed sweater dress that Amelia loved, but when asked if she wanted to make their own, both her and Robin fell in love with the idea. They kept mentioning making their own instead, so we decided to go forward and do just that.

Top 5 Best Low Alcohol or Alcohol-Free Beers

[Ad- gifted product] For a lot of people, the ability to go out and socialise or meet with friends is utterly essential to modern survival. In many cases that can go hand in hand with grabbing a drink or two, and now – more than ever – there’s so much choice that it can be baffling. But, if you’re not the sort to dip into a tipple or two then that widening of variety brings with it an added relief, because the alcohol-free, or low-alcohol, selection has grown as well. Most supermarkets have got at least five or six shelves of specifically alcohol-free versions of drinks and there are also plenty of places online which specialise in them as well.
