There is an estate in the town closest to me with wide looped streets and large pleasant houses. It’s a Mecca for the trick or treat crowd who descend upon it come Halloween like swarms of living dead locusts. On the 31st of October each year, a significant percentage of the estate’s residents flee for the night. Others darken every light and I assume, hide under the covers or tip toe about...

Hello everyone, I decided to post this blog after having a very nice holiday in Spain with my then 9 month old son Alexei. We were lucky to have accommodation (apartment) for the whole two weeks so we had commodities such as washing machine and a kettle. In future if I have a choice I will always rent an apartment. It is quieter and you have a luxury to come back at any time if your baby needs a...

As kids in 1970s Ireland, our typical Halloween costume was a bin bag with cotton wool or random pieces of coloured paper glued to it. Our face paint was dad’s black shoe polish and a red lipstick stolen from my mother’s makeup bag and we collected out trick or treat booty in plastic St Bernard bags. We all knew the houses where the best goodies were given out and the ones to avoid – those...

Is there anyone else out there who felt more than happy to go back to work after a baby? My little boy is nearly 5 months and my maternity leave is up at the at the end of October and I can't help but feel excited to get to go back, but this is also making me feel miserable and like a selfish mother because I feel that I shouldn't be happy to be leaving him behind. I had him in May and had so much...

They say a son is a son until he finds a wife but a daughter is a daughter for life. I'd like to find whoever is responsible for that old adage and give them a stern talking to. It's simply NOT TRUE and I can prove it twice over. Ok so maybe I'm being a little over dramatic but recently I was left reeling when bitter experience visited my door for the second time in 6 years I found...

Sometimes being a mother seems to revolve around ranting. It's either “Go to bed” or “Get up,” “Come inside and do your homework!” or “Go outside and get some fresh air!” You feel your hands plant themselves firmly on your hips and phrases like, “Do you think I'm made of money?” and “I'll bet Sophie/Jack/Isaiah doesn't talk to his/her mother like that!” slip...

Women and Babies Men can be very silly sometimes. In an effort to please, we men can end up in the greatest of messes. Men know women love to hear about babies. So in a male’s excited enthusiasm to announce his friend’s wife has just delivered, he foolishly, and some would say unwittingly, leaves himself open for attack. Like a rookie soldier walking through the quicksand laden jungle he...

Schools have been back for over a month and it’s taken me that long to recover from the shell shock of back-to-school preparations. Each June I am filled with fresh resolve and good intentions; I promise myself that I will get those books early, sort out the school bag, the uniform, and all the supplies in plenty of time. Then I forget. Inevitably, on the day before school starts, I found myself...

When my eldest son was 14, his friends began going to underage discos. It entailed getting a bus from the local village to a neighbouring town at 9pm and home again at 12pm. My son showed no interest in going and I was quite happy with this. I felt he was too young and I was a little frightened that alcohol would make an appearance. I was very fortunate with his outlook and lack of interest...
