Bubbles in space!

Having spoken to a few folk about my bear adventures, I just wanted to confirm that none of the images I recently shared are AI. They are all 100% real and taken by the wonderful Craig.

Here’s one of Maja catching bubbles. She’s just like a kid chasing bubbles in the park.

I’m one very tired bubbleologist today. Up at 4am to get dressed and drive to Edinburgh for a full day at school. 10 sessions with the most energetic characters in an extremely warm room. Then the drive home though all the roadworks. Think I’m in for an early night after all that. 😂🫧🫧

If you are thinking about having some end of term bubbles then please get in touch ASAP. June is filling up and one of the weeks is already fully booked. I would hate for anyone to miss out.

What an amazing day we just had at Camperdown Wildlife Centre. Smallest bubble and I popped up at the bears birthday bash to celebrate with a huge crowd of very excited kids and adults. The sun shone, the activities were all brilliant and the bears had a ball.

Here’s Maja, who has clearly fallen in love with bubbles, having a fun time popping and eating a few. The pictures were captured by the lovely Craig James who is an absolute super star.

I can’t tell you how excited I was to blow bubbles for the bears. It’s made my year and it’s only May. Thank you to everyone who came along today, I hope they’ve made a good amount for Cash for Kids , and a huge thank you to everyone at Camperdown wildlife for having me along and letting me loose in the park. It’s been an excellent day. 😊🐻🫧🫧🎂

This week has shot past and now it’s nearly time to celebrate the bear’s birthday at Camperdown Wildlife Centre. I’ll be popping up from 12 and there’s loads to do so get down early for a full day of fun, birthdays and bubbles. It’s going to be bearilliant and bubbletastic. 😂🫧🫧🫧🐻🐻🐻🎂

Here's all the amazing plans for the Camperdown Wildlife Centre happening TOMORROW! 🐻

If you haven't already booked your tickets online, don't worry- you can walk in on the day! PLUS- the first 50 kids visiting will get a free party bag full of goodies! 😍

There'll be lots of amazing games and activities on the day, so don't forget to bring your pennies and have a go at winning some prizes! 🌟

See you all there! 🌈

Happy International Blowing Bubbles Day! And also a huge Happy 8th Birthday to Poppy Bubbles.

It’s been 8 years since I started this incredible journey to bring bubbles and joy to as many people as possible. Here are some fun stats.

2 Edinburgh Fringe shows (some of which oversold which is even better than selling out)
5 Dundee Fringe Shows
1 First Minister in a bubble
1 pandemic survived (that’s enough, would not recommend)
12000 stickers handed out (approx)
16000 miles driven to events (approx)
1 Bubbletastic birthday bash for Poppy (which we will do again when we hit double figures )
2 long suffering children who have been roped in to the bubble madness
1 long suffering husband who I’m sure must wonder what on earth he signed up for.
1 amazingly supportive family who have shifted schedules, baby sat, delivered kit I forgot and supported me while I traipsed around the country blowing bubbles.

To celebrate this year I am heading to Camperdown Wildlife Centre on Sunday for their fundraising day for Cash for Kids, it would be great to see lots of you there.

Next weekend I’ll be popping up at Camperdown Wildlife Park again. We are so lucky to have this in Dundee and it’s honestly one of my favourite places to hang out. Next Sunday is a special day though as they are celebrating the bears’ birthday and fundraising for Cash for Kids. Grab your pennies and pop along for an amazing day sure to keep everyone entertained. 🐻🫧🎂

One week today! 🐻
Sunday 10th May - we're celebrating our bears with an action packed day!
We've teamed up with Cash for Kids Tayside & Fife - an amazing local charity so please if you can, bring some extra cash to get face painting, make a badge to take home, guess the name of an adorable teddy bear to win him and tombola! Cash is quicker but you can also use card ❤️
Kicking off the activities, we'll have singing, dancing and party games with Party with Chloé ✨
Poppy Bubbles will be there for the afternoon doing amazing bubble shows - it will be a joint party with them too as they are celebrating their 8th birthday! 🎈
Sunflower Ashes will be with us for face painting and also badge making with the Friends of Camperdown Wildlife Centre

General admission tickets available online in advance or at reception on the day! We can't wait to see you! 🐻

Serious question for folk who run their own business or tech savvy people. I often feel like I should really convert to a digital calendar, I love my paper ones and usually have them stuffed full of post it notes and scribbles, some drawings and a bit of journalling, but it would be easier to access it on my phone especially when I’m out and about bubbling. I’ve tried out a couple, including the Apple one that came with my phone but I never seem to get on with them. So does anyone have any advice? Suggestions? Ones to definitely stay away from? All advice will be gratefully received. 🥰🫧🫧
