Whenever we go to Little Museum Visitors at Ditchling Museum, we head to Mister Magnolia’s for lunch. It’s relatively new and is named for the marvellous single-shoed protagonist of Quentin Blake’s book of the same name. The guy with sisters who play the flute, an enormous pet ‘brute’ and owls who have lost their hoot. (We’re impressed […]
Read MoreThe sun is finally with us, but we live in the UK so let’s not get ahead of ourselves. It’s March, not July. Not wishing to be the bearer of any sort of gloom, but it is spring, and rain is still a probable part of our lives. I promised a three-post series of good […]
Read MoreBuried by deadlines a couple of months ago, I did a shout out for guest posts. I’ve had a couple of responses and am hoping more of these great posts will appear on Little Lewes as I continue to epically fail to keep it updated myself. One of those kindly souls was Donna Collins-O’Brien, who […]
Read MoreOn Monday, I posted a couple of photos of The Cow and a ‘HIGHLY RECOMMENDED‘ comment on the Little Lewes Facebook page. It received a lot of views – and likes – and one reader has already eaten there with her kids. Since not everyone following the blog is on Facebook, I thought it worthy […]
Read MoreHELLO. Sorry for the silence. I am still alive. I am just very (x 1000) busy. I’m freelance and work-wise, currently the sun is shining. So I’m just making a little hay right now. But it feels like my working life is the only place this is happening. OK, now about this rain… IT SUCKS! […]
Read MoreChristmas is most definitely here! There are windows of wonder all over Lewes. For me Christmas arrived at the start of this week, when the Christmas window popped up at 25 Landsdown Place. I wrote a few months back about how I like the way people on that street in Lewes use their windows as […]
Read MoreIn late September, the Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft re-opened. It is quite a thing to behold and most definitely my kind of place. There are so many reasons why, but these probably don’t make that interesting a read. So I’ll cut to the chase. As well as showcasing the art and craft wonders […]
Read MoreIt takes quite a lot to wow me these days. As I probably mention in every Little Lewes post, we have lived here for four years. In that time, a lot has impressed me in terms of things to do with children – in the relative sense that I think there’s a decent amount of decent quality in and […]
Read Mored I don’t know about you, but the past few weekends it’s felt like we’re chasing the sun. The days are getting shorter, the dry spells patchier. But this makes the sunny moments rewarding. When the sun comes out, so do we. (Actually, we are sort of fine with wet weather gear and parks in the rain […]
Read MoreWoah there, half term is upon us! It feels like my son only just started school, but it’s definitely time we all had a break from the new routine. Half term has never really affected us – well except that I found it irksome that all the toddler stuff stopped! But now it does, and I […]
