I’m a bit late to the #OneLovelyBlog party, but what a great idea to share a bit of love with bloggers I admire. It’s also a good opportunity to reveal a few lesser known Tin Box Traveller facts! I’ve received two nominations from Ruby’s Rambles and Shannonagains. Thank you so much ladies and I’m sorry…
As a second-time round mummy, I already have a fully stocked – if not slightly tired – maternity wardrobe. However, this hasn’t stopped me clicking longingly through the mum-to-be pages of fashion websites.So when the lovely people at Yummy Mummy Maternity asked me if I’d like to review a product from their range I jumped…
You won’t find me writing many posts about pregnancy and labour – it’s not really my genre – but something tickled me this week so I thought I’d share it. When I was expecting Tin Box Tot I remember feeling lots of anxieties about childbirth. Would I be able to bear the pain? Would we…
A two month break from our caravan travels has given us the time to get lots of jobs done at home – many of which are in preparation for the arrival of Tin Box Baby 2. Top of the list has been evicting Tin Box Tot from the cot and transforming her bedroom into a…

Hello 2015! We’re waving you a massive welcome and looking forward to all the exciting things you’re going to bring. Number one on the list is Tin Box Baby 2, due in April. Family and close friends have already been let in on the secret of what we’re having, but December shot by in such…
I don’t often make new years resolutions – I know giving up chocolate is a non-starter! But when it comes to blogging I’m happy to make an exception. I’ve learnt so much in the past two years and have already made a lot of changes in 2014 – updating Tin Box Traveller’s layout, posting more…
We had a kindred spirit come to stay this Christmas – another traveller who carries their home on their back. Herbie the giant African land snail usually hangs out at Tin Box Tot’s nursery but needed a family to look after him while all the kids were on holiday. TBT has always been a massive…
Phew! It’s over for another year. All that remains of Christmas 2014 is a dustbin overflowing with ripped wrapping paper, pulled crackers and a few dry bits of turkey. For us this Christmas was our last as a family of three (Mr TB is behind the camera on this occasion). Next year there will be…
