I went for a long walk with my best friend in the local woods on Sunday. I massively enjoy getting out and about and seeing the beauty of nature. On arriving back home, I always tend to feel in a way better and more positive mood than when I left. During the walk, we stopped to take a short break after about an hour and sat on a bench to catch our breath and to chill out.
Welcoming a newborn into the family is always a joyous occasion. This is especially so, of course, for the parents of the baby. Those first few days and weeks are like a whirlwind and are full of excitement and love. The development of the young baby each day is quite staggering, and they soon start to grow and develop. Before they grow too big, many parents like to take a handprint of their newborn.
There is just something so frustrating about finding that one of your favourite photographs has been damaged or that, over time, it has faded. We all do our best to keep our prized possessions, including our photo albums and other photographs, stored securely and safely, but from time to time, even this is not enough.
Do you have a piece or set of memorabilia that you would like to protect and preserve in order for it to stay in pristine condition for many years to come? This doesn't necessarily have to be something that is worth a great deal of money; it might be just valuable and important to you for many other reasons, such as being sentimental.
Due to the smartphone and for those that own one, which is no doubt around ninety-nine per cent of people in the country, we now have access to a camera at all times that we have the phone on our person. And how great is that?

When I was growing up, my parents were fortunate to have two living rooms in their house. In reality, one of them was probably meant to be a dining room. What I could never understand, as a young child, is why they kept one of these living rooms for special occasions. It was what they classed as the “posh living room”.

For a couple that has reached the point in their life and their relationship when they are ready to become parents, it can be an exhilarating time. This whole period can see one feel a large range of emotions. At the outset, it’s all extremely exciting. For many people, this is what they may have wanted for a long time, but they just haven’t been in the right place until now.
At the end of a long, hard, tiring day, it is always nice to enter the bedroom and to get into bed. It is bringing a sense of calm to what can often be a busy and chaotic day. People rightly spend a lot of time and thought on the interior design of the bedroom to ensure that it creates this feeling of calm, comfort and relaxation as soon as we enter.
I recently inherited a large number of stamps from my parents. To be honest, stamps have not interested me since I was a child. At that point when I was around the age of nine, I had a stamp book and would collect as many stamps as I could, and I really enjoyed doing so. The stamps that I have inherited are not of great monetary value, but they are fascinating, nonetheless.
