Half term provides families with a whole week to spend some quality time together, have a well-earned rest and stock up on any bits and bobs your child might need for the second half of term.
The thought of doing the back-to-school shop all over again may well instill fear in the minds of many a parent – not only is it tedious but spending extra money in the run-up to Christmas is hardly ideal.
However, the
back-to-school (again) shop can be quick, easy and most importantly cheap, if you know where to find the best deals.

Finally, after years of planning and building and billions of pounds,
the 30th Olympics are underway in London. I'm not going to harp on about
how great the opening ceremony was (that's been done to death already)
or how frustrating our lack of medals (that's typically Team GB) but one
thing about any major sporting event, whether it's the Olympics,
Wimbledon, the World Cup or any others, people get inspired by it and that, in turn, can save us all a few quid.
For example, thanks in part to Bradley Wiggin's win last week in the
Tour de France, all of a sudden everyone's out riding their bikes,
enjoying some fresh air, fun exercise and saving a fortune on petrol and
bus or train fares. Right now,
Halfords
has a great offer on all bikes and bike accessories whereby you can
instantly save up to £70 so, if you're looking for a new ride, now could
be the best time to get one.

As I sit at my desk and look out the window, normal service has resumed. The rain is lashing down and more severe weather warnings have been issued than Premiership footballers take out injunctions. But last night was different; the sun was shining and cricket fans in London flooded (sorry about that pun) into the Oval for the Friends Life T2O game between Surrey and Kent. Luckily for me I was there too, but not part of the masses – no, no – I was there as a guest of
Webgains in a corporate box. A mighty fine way to spend an evening, if I do say so myself.

When the team at Savoo were invited by Affiliate Window to join the 2012 Super Games for the 2nd time running we saw this as great opportunity to show off our athletic builds and team spirit but more of the latter.

I know it's about to snow and I know the recent hot weather is nothing more than a blip but summer's just round the corner and that means a new set of sporting events are imminent - and if you, like me, are excited by that then read on!
When I used to play cricket the early season always presented mixed
emotions; delighted the season was about to start but upset by the fact
you had to wear two jumpers and that your hands experienced a pain men
can only presume comes close to child birth when you didn't time a catch
quite right. One on the end of the fingers in May is man pain. My
cricket playing days are few and far between now but, if I still played,
I would be looking for some
good deals for new spikes, whites, bats and pads. Doing some research it appears
these guys look to be offering some good free delivery at the very least.

Stella McCartney unveiled the much anticipated Olympic uniforms for Team GB yesterday and now the country is seeing red, just not on the uniforms themselves. In partnership with Adidas our very own London born designer Stella McCartney took all the red out of the Union Flag choosing instead to use the colour as trim. The designer is quoted as saying that this was a choice to 'modernise' the look of the flag but the patriotic masses are crying foul, loudly!
