I have been in Paris this week at a conference called Le Spot de Efluent. I’ve been wined and dined and entertained all in the name of this wonderful world of blogging.  I’ve loved three days just being me, but it has been wonderful to come back to my girls and it was such fun to take them to see Disney on Ice on Wednesday.

This last month we have celebrated Bonfire Night with a big street party, I’ve been back to Leeds where I was at university to meet up with the girls (twenty years on) and we have had friends up to stay and been out for some lovely walks.

I tag all my UK days out photographs #UKexplore on Instagram and if you aren’t following me over there I’d love you to do so!

It was a beautiful walk home this afternoon #ukexplore #wirral

#UKexplore continues to grow rapidly (Over 7000 photos now!) and both Rachel and I love scrolling through the hashtag to see what you’ve all been up to.  Just in case you aren’t aware what #UKexplore is, it is our Instagram community that we have invited you all to join in with and share your favourite places across the UK and your outdoor adventures. To join in it doesn’t have to be a photograph one of the 534 National Trust properties (although we do think they are amazing); we want to see your ‘off the beaten track’ spots, too. It could be the most marvellous of meadows, the perfect place for a picnic, the loveliest lake for skimming stones, or rambling routes for running along. Wherever and whenever you’re out exploring, simply take a snap and upload it to Instagram so we can all share in your adventures and explore the UK with you. All we ask is that you use the #UKexplore hashtag so we can find you. You don’t have to be a blogger, anyone can join in and be in with a chance to win. So without further ado, who have I chosen this month….

Some of my favourites from November are:

Mummy Travels Audrey Apple 77 Woodlight Adventures

Life at Cooks Cabin Extraordinary Chaos Jessarose

TMKUK Wellies on the school run  Charly Dove
