A blog about being a pretty average dad… and stuff (formerly Henry's Blog)
Despite being a fairly heavy consumer of podcasts (at last count, I’m subscribed to 16!) I’ve never dived into the world of parenting podcasts – at least until very recently. It wasn’t a conscious decision to avoid them – the majority of the podcasts I listen to are comedy based, and those two genres don’t…
I’d usually start a review like this by pointing out that I’m “not much of a gamer”, or some other excuse to hide my lack of proficiency in matters of gaming. But thankfully, the game I’ve been asked to review this time is VERY different to your average console title – and i’m happy to…
Anybody who knows me will attest to the fact that I am long-time Star Wars fan. It’s not just the films either – I’ve read a lot of the “extended universe” books, collected the trading cards, have a loft full of action figures (both classic and new) and much, much more. In short, I’m a…
Or: 14 things I learned at the Goodyear All-season tyre event in Luxembourg I was recently lucky enough to be invited along to join an event Goodyear Tyres were running in Luxembourg, to showcase their “All season” tyre range. Along with a contingent of other, much more successful bloggers than myself (including a few British…
I don’t know about your house, but the Cars films have been an entertainment staple in ours for the past 5 or 6 years now. We saw both of the first two films at the cinema (the second being Freddie’s first ever trip to the cinema) and we’ve got more Cars toys than you can…

I don’t know about you, but barely a day goes by where I don’t see somebody tapping away on their smartphone with a horrendously smashed-up screen. I don’t know what it is that’s causing everyone to drop their phones so hard that they smash the screen, but people seem to do it far more often…
The lovely people at the Handmade Burger Co recently got in touch, asking if we wanted to give their new kids menu a try. It probably doesn’t take a genius to work out what I told them in response – not least of all because you’re about to read my review. So, on a sunny…
Well, after an epic few sessions of Lego building, where we reviewed the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 Lego sets “Ravager Attack” and “Ayesha’s Revenge“, we finally come to the grand finale – the biggest set of the bunch. In case you aren’t familiar with the Guardians of the Galaxy films, the “Milano” is…
Today we’ll be reviewing the next model in the new Lego “Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 2” range, “Ayesha’s Revenge”. As with the first set (“Ravager Attack”) it’s a model inspired by the upcoming sequel – and like the other model, features a couple of elements that will probably make a lot more sense once…
