Initially there will be regular lunchtime meetings; the first meetings being held on Friday 5th June and Friday 4th September from 12 - 2 pm.

*Quite simply, this is brilliant* -  Nottingham Evening Post

Enter a world where man and woman do not walk with legs but swim with tails…where Mermaids live side by side with the sea creatures…where music is the language in the most mysterious depths of the ocean. The Little Mermaid longs to be part of the human world so that she can marry the human prince. In sheer desperation, she decides to sell her voice to the Sea Witch in exchange for legs, but she could never imagine the price she would pay.

This beautiful fusion of original music, song, physical theatre, movement and colour is directed by Ava Hunt (Settling The Score, Tangere Arts; Bretevski Street, Nottingham Playhouse/Salisbury Playhouse) and designed by Tim Heywood (Derby Playhouse, Exeter Northcott).

Age range: 4 +  |  Date: Sunday 14th June 2009

Pack a picnic and take a football and bucket & spade and you will find hours of fun for all age groups.If younger children need encouraging on a walk get them to fill a bucket or bag with interesting things they find or let them take some binoculars or a magnifying glass for bug spotting.  You can play hide & seek, and allow different members of the family be the leader, or pretend you are in a jungle and see how many lions and other animals you can spot lurking!

We have picked some of the best places that we have visited with our families and tried to give you the information you want - what is there to do, where do we park, are there toilets and can we get a drink or ice-cream?

r-time’s favourite free fun in the fresh air!   Have fun - and lets hope the weather lets us get out to explore!

We are thrilled to have found this company….  finally quality doesn’t have to mean costly!

Daisy May Clothing was started by two mums with affordability in mind. With the credit crunch looming and the cost of living rising young families in tow, the two mums decided that there was no where really affordable to buy children’s clothes.

With those thoughts in mind, the mums set off searching for wholesalers that could provide them with good quality children’s clothing at affordable prices. Once the wholesalers had been located, the quality of the clothing inspected and sold on an ad hoc basis to friends and family Daisy May Clothing was then born.

And you will be soooo pleased!!!   For more information please visit Daisy May Clothing
