Sitting at my kitchen table in a very cold London, I can’t believe JJ’s Wigwam has only been online a few months. It almost feels like when the children were first born; I can’t imagine life without it!

The run up to Christmas was great, we did lots of local fairs, met lots of lovely people and drank lots of lukewarm vin chaud. Christmas lasted 9 weeks!

Our winter holiday was brilliant, we took the ferry to France, spend a view days in Belgium where we got stuck into the local food, chocolate, chips and beer. We ice skated on the village square to the beats of the continent’s new house music. What’s not to love?

We spend Christmas with our family in Holland. We tried to have a relaxing time while potty training our daughter and  being shot repeatedly by 4 hyper boys who loved their presents (note – with nerf guns; they’re not assassins!)

Driving back to London we listened to Michael Buble ‘s Christmas cd, the lyrics were so true: “Mum and dad can hardly wait for school to start again…..”

And now 3 weeks later, Christmas feels like months ago. We are back at work, nursery and school and new products for the site are coming in. Between all the wine and chocolate  I was on the look out for new brands, cool products and different designs and I can’t wait to introduce them all to you.

So here’s to 2016!

Love Caroline
