The Talented Mr Nudie.

This time it's all about Mr Nudie, well all about what a bloody brilliant Dad he is to my Little Prince anyway. Not only does he have seemingly endless patience and the enduring ability to get up with the little darling at five-ish most mornings while I pretend to be asleep I mean, snooze. He is the inventor of all manner of cool stuff and games for little boys. I can't even begin to kid myself that I am as much fun to hang out with. Sorry, Little Prince. 


Mr Nudie is a 'Dangerous Book for Boys' kind of Dad. Always making stuff from bits and pieces he has lying around and foraging for beasties in the garden. All that's missing is a mad inventors moustache.......maybe that would be a step too far, despite his dedication to the cause.


Anyway, I want to share with you Mr Nudies piece de resistance. The Little Princes playhouse. It was borne from a small idea one weekend. The next thing, Mr Nudie's drawing proper fancy-pants plans and everything. It took him, with a little help from the boy just one weekend to build this.


It's the perfect spot to hang out, whilst creating a masterpiece.


Or just to chill and enjoy a little snackette.




This is the Little Princes space, and with it Play time has taken on a whole new meaning.

This post is for week 22 of Tara Cains Gallery. The prompt this week is Playtime. Don't forget to go and look at all the other entries.

  5. That's awesome! I'd have loved a playhouse like that when I was growing up.

    Actually, on reflection I think I'd still like one. It looks like a wonderful place to hide from the world.

    Make sure you give Mr. Nudie a gold star!

  9. THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! is exactly why Mr Nudie should come to my house for a while. And by while, I mean a couple of months. I could definitely keep him busy.

    PS - Could that boy look any cuter in the deckchair??

  13. Love your blog! Boredom at work has prompted serial blog-browsing and I happened upon yours.
    It's bloody brilliant - just the right balance of hilarity, warm fuzzy tummyness and swearing.

    Embarking into motherhood myself come December with a little boy and I just hope he's half as lovely as your wee prince :)

  14. OMG, that playhouse is awesome. Can he build me one? And by that I mean one for me, not for my daughter, she can go find somewhere else to play. LOL!
