Mummy must have...
Since having Tabitha I have struggled to find the time to sit and wait for nail varnish to dry. There is always something I need to do before it is set and I end up with dodgy looking smudged nails.
Usually I'll end up taking it off intending to start again, mostly I discover that this debarkle has used up my free time slot and it never gets done.
So lovely readers I am sharing this with you because it has changed my life.

I have seen stuff like this and never imagined it would work but this one actually does!
When it says dry it means dry, touch dry in a minute literally, child proof in a couple more.
Mummy can finally get her claws back out.

Singing in the Rain.
I have always loved a musical.
As a child my Dad would take me to London to see one every year for a Daddy/Daughter treat.
They are good memories and those trips fed my desire to act and be on stage.
Fast forward 20 odd years and no those dreams never came true but hey ho... I still love a musical.
So when I was asked if I wanted to attend Singing in the Rain I was always going to say yes.
I decided to take my mum along this time as it was the week of her birthday and brownie points are valuable when you rely on your mum as much as I do.
I whole heartedly recommend the show as a great night out.
The Palace theatre is beautiful, a real classic building full of cherubs and marble pillars. We were seated in the dress circle which ended up being perfect seating. I'd recommend avoiding the lower circle seats at the front unless you are wearing a raincoat!
The show sees 14,000 litres of water pumped onto the stage and during the energetic tap routines there is a fair bit of 'accidental' splashing from the actors.
All this adds to the show and the die hard fans at the front wearing the free rain ponchos loved every second.
The cast were fantastic, a good blend of dancing and acting to keep you hooked from the start.
I cannot wait until Tabitha is old enough to sit through a show like this. I cannot wait to fill her head with dreams of the stage, bright lights and costume changes.
Just maybe her dreams will come true....

My little TV star....
The big news in our house this month has been that Tabitha-Lo has hit the big screen in her first advert.
Now I know lots of mums will have opinions on children being involved in modelling or tv but you know what? I don't really care.
I am so proud of her, she loved the day filming with Cow and Gate. They treated the children so well and she thought being set free in a recording studio with no one telling you to 'not touch' was the best fun ever.
Miss Lo features several times, although you mostly recognise her during her saxophone solo!
Well done Cow and Gate on a fantastic advert and well done Miss Lo on being a true little star.
