Family Comedy Show – Glee Club Cardiff

We've had a great afternoon at Glee Club Cardiff lots of giggles at some very funny men according to Twinkle 1.

Wilko Bloks Fun

This is how we spent our afternoon. We had a great time building @lovewilko bloks. When we bought this this morning I didn't hold out much hope. We've had a number of these sets in the past and we are always unlucky when it comes to having all the pieces there. This time however how …

Being inspired by kids

So being surrounded by students most days is fun. They say crazy things. They make me laugh but they do inspire me. One such student not only inspires me but works to inspire those around her. So she faces some challenges as she was born with a visual impairment. What she however doesn't want is …
