You may have heard that I am incapacitated at the moment! I have a broken shoulder and will be in sling for quite a while meaning I can't drive to all our favourite places.

Last year I featured some '𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀' posts and I would love to continue with this this summer. 𝗪𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗿?

We all love finding out about places from other parents as it’s a true reflection on the venue or attraction. If you have visited somewhere recently and had a lovely day out or found somewhere new to you that you'd be happy to share, send me a message and let me know a little bit about it.

**Please be careful while you are out not to trample, sit or walk on the bluebells as they damage very easily and this affects their ability to rebloom. They can take between 4 and 6 years to rebloom again. Stick to the paths and clearings! 
**Please don't pick the flowers as Native English Bluebells are a protected species.

If you know of somewhere else in the local area where you can see bluebells contact us and we will add it to our list.
