About Me....

I am Sarah (obviously!!) and live in Hampshire, UK with my husband Mr Grumpy (so named for his tendency to moan) and our two boys H (13yrs) and W (11yrs).


Mr G and I met in 1988 when we were 15 and were married in 1996.


I am a stay at home mum and love to craft - I enjoy sewing; crochet; making over furniture and am just learning to knit.


We have lots of animals (much to Mr G's disgust) - 2 x Tonkinese cats; 2 x Jack Russell terriers ; 1 x parrot and 4 x horses.


We live in a 1970's semi which I try and pretend is older - would love a 1930's or Victorian semi really - or even better a Regency/Edwardian detached with the horses in the back garden, sigh, a girl can dream!!


I have unfulfilled ambitions to be a writer so a blog seemed a good way to go. I have been blogging for six months and am LOVING it and all the wonderful people I "meet".
