There are numerous ways to get on the property ladder. First time buyers in the jaw-droppingly expensive capital might go down the shared ownership property in London route, or perhaps they’ll look at buying a house that needs a lot of work doing to it (a ‘fixer-upper’). Fixer-uppers aren’t for the faint-hearted. Of course, houses that need work done to them vary from needing new flooring to needing an actual floor, but let’s have a look at some of the pros and cons of a fixer-upper.Â

A Day Out at Saratoga Race Course
While visiting my family, one of the things we ended up going out and doing is betting on some horses at the local race course. Saratoga Race Course is a track I do remember going to as a child, but had no idea Taid, my grandfather, went every single year, because he was taken by his father to see the horses race. With very little experience at race courses, my sister and I were curious, and my dad actually didn’t know the betting system at all, so it was an interesting and time.

A Day Out at Monopoly Lifesized Junior
[Ad- gifted experience]Â When it comes to game night, our household loves trying out new board games and spending time exploring some of our favorites. We’ve spent a lot of time playing new types of board games, but often ditch the classics like Monopoly. With that said, Dann and I had both played “local rules” versions of Monopoly and are always interested in new ways to experience classics – so when we heard about Monopoly Lifesized Junior, we were curious!
Monopoly Lifesized has appeared in central London, offering a few different boards for people to go and explore. There is a classic version, a London-specific board, a board that contains Mr. Monopoly’s vault, and Monopoly Junior, which is the only board aimed at younger children. The other three are for adults only. Monopoly Junior is really an event for kids – with not a lot of parent interaction, but it’s one of those magical events that has so much going on, that younger children are sucked into the fun, games, and magic of being in a lifesized board – which is enough to make any parents with them happy.
