Skechers Keepsake Gravel boots

Skechers Keepsake Gravel

 

I know this is the second Skechers post in 2 weeks but I promise I’m not on commission!

I picked up these Keepsake Gravel beauties last week for the bargain sum of £28.78 on Amazon which is a massive saving over the regular RRP.

Il Piccolo, Corbridge

Il Piccolo Corbridge

On a grim and grey Valentines Day, we found ourselves heading to Corbridge for a brisk walk, some gift shop browsing and of course lunch; which saw us heading to Il Piccolo Corbridge, a family run restaurant, café and deli tucked away off the main street.

A rustic décor was festooned with red hearts in perfect keeping with the day. There wasn’t a special themed lunch menu which suited us as we are a bit a anti V-Day!

John Frieda Beach Blonde Cool Dip Shampoo and Smooth Seas Detangling Conditioner

John Frieda Beach Blonde Smooth Seas Detangling Conditioner Cool Dip Purifying Shampoo 1

 

Being a blonde, it is always a nerve wracking time slipping in to a swimming pool filled with Chlorine. Will my highlights go green? While my blonde go sludgy? Will it feel like straw? All common concerns!

I haven’t been overly impressed with anti chlorine products, least of all ones aimed at blondes. I always prefer to use non specialised products. That is until I tried the new John Frieda Beach Blonde range. Not that the range is new, it was much loved and then sadly discontinued. Fear not, it is BACK!

Rosa Twelve, Low Fell

Rosa Twelve Low Fell

A Monday night in the post Valentine lull seemed like a great time for a dinner date at Rosa Twelve, a reasonably recent addition to the Low Fell dining line up. I had previously visited on a lunch time with work colleagues when it first opened and I was impressed with the pizzas, it was time to try something else!

A previous incarnation of the restaurant had been owned by old family friends but Rosa Twelve has firmly cemented itself on the scene with a fresh, modern, clean décor and a wide and exciting menu.

Not only is there a restaurant, you can also have a drink in the ground floor bar area or head downstairs to the Cicchetti bar for small dishes, nibbles and live music.
