A blog about being a pretty average dad… and stuff (formerly Henry's Blog)
I don’t often get asked to review clothing here on the blog, and when I do it’s rarely clothing that I’d actually choose myself. So when the folks at Saltrock asked if We wanted to test out some of their children’s range, I decided I should put away my presumptions and give them a shot….
I recently got in touch with the folk over at Glowsticks.co.uk with the cheeky request of a discount code to offer on the site. After all, I’ve been a customer of their site for years and years, and I thought it was about time I shared my love of Glowsticks with the world. Luckily for…

With just over 4 weeks to go until the big weekend, I thought it was about time I shared a bit more detail with you all. I thought I’d do it as a (hidden) blog post rather than an email or word document, mainly so that I can update it later on when Sara gets…
iew offer was a bit of a new one to me – I was contacted with the offer of reviewing a new Lottery-based website, called LottoLand. I was also give £25 free credit to try out some of the games on offer – gambling with somebody else’s money is definitely a lot more pleasurable after…
