So the week started off beautifully here with amazing sunshine and we were all prepared for another week in the garden. However, I’m sat here on Saturday afternoon with the fire lit, a jumper on and a lamp on whilst the rain pelts down outside… welcome to Autumn people! So what’s been happening in this seasonal change of a week….

1 – Offline…. Our biggest high point this week has to have been our trip to the Warner Bros. Studio to see the Harry Potter props and sets. I’ve been before but no one else had and my mum Alyssa and I took my wonderful nephew Rowan for a birthday surprise. His exact words were that it was “awesomely awesome!” I don’t think we could have gotten much better than that… a full review of our trip will be up soon but you can head over to my Facebook page to check out all the live feeds and photos from the day! rowan on harry potter bridge waving
2 – Online…. There’s going to be a new addition to my blog soon in the form of a monthly VLOG from my darling nephew. He loves all things technology and is an avid watcher of YouTube  (appropriate channels only of course) and he loved it when we went live on the way back from Harry Potter. So once a month my little sweetheart is going to take command in Rowan’s Ramblings and fill us in on his opinions and I imagine whatever pops into his head…. this should be interesting!!

3 – Offline… Some of you are going to kill me but… I’ve got my first Christmas present sat in my present cupboard ready to be wrapped. I know that it is early but I am busy and also need to spread the cost…so let the games begin.
4. Online… Remember my lovely #tribalchat well we had a couple of great moments. Firstly, we hit 100 members on our Facebook Group which is amazing as we are so active all through the week there and have a thread running every day that offers support or a boost for your blog… are you a member yet?
5 – Offline… Did you know that we’re trying to sell our house at the moment?! Well we are and trying to sell a house in summer is a nightmare because everyone is busy doing other things and not looking at houses. However, we’ve had 2 viewings this weekend so fingers crossed for an offer!
6 – Online… the other big #tribalchat news this week is that we are having our second blogging awards!! Voting is open and all our Facebook members are eligible to win one of our coveted awards. Have you voted for your favourites yet?? If not click here to vote!!

Been a fairly up and down week… I’ve either been manically busy or dead still. Here’s for a more balanced incoming week. How have you been??
