Summer is Coming!

Last year I was given one of these beach tents to try and I dug my heels in saying “No Way!” but I think I may have missed out.

My sister took the beautiful but overlooked shade to the beach for a week and swore by it saying it was the star of the holiday.

It did look funky but my concern was the time putting it up and down. She assured me that it was quick and when compared to the the extra time it allowed you to stay on the beach without being burned, it was a win for the family.

I now see the point but do you think i can get her to give it back? No … well I might have to go buy one myself this year 🙂

Exercise Together

I have always observed and sometimes joined the throng of exercisers along the waterfront at Sandgate. Its such a great place to get out in the sunshine and increase the heart-rate a little, burn some calories or just catch up with a friend.

Well now there is a new way beat those procrastinating ways by joining a group fitness squad and benefiting form the added motivation that it brings. You also get expert support and direction from Katie or Tim who know how to keep things fun while working the group just enough.

Both of these guys did their Certificate III in Fitness at the Academy of Fitness and so they really know what they are doing. They can suggest a wide variety of activities from the usual stretches, warmups and runs to kettle bells, team exercises and games. Pets too get a workout.

Check it out if you (like me) need some motivation to keep turning up!

Contact form 7 checkboxes – one per line

When I need checkboxes in a contact 7 form I usually want them each on a separate line.

We add this simple link of code to our stylesheet. It will insert a linebreak between all checkboxes or radio buttons in your forms built with Contact Form 7.

span.wpcf7-list-item {
display:block;
}

That works a treat.
