There’s lots to love about autumn, it is a veritable feast for the senses: pumpkin spiced stuff, the feeling of slipping back into your favourite boots, the satisfying shine of conkers littering the pathways, the sound of the crackling fire, the smell of wood-smoke in the air, the early-morning mist…we could go on and on […]
Whilst watching “A Star is Born” recently, NHHQ got a bit emotional. OK, truth be told, “a bit emotional” is underplaying it a smidge; “wailed and wept and cried for three hours straight” would be a more accurate description. What was interesting, was that in this somewhat protracted period of self-induced distress, the NHHQ Hound […]
Hygge is the art of conscious cosiness and we are sure that for you, like us, there is no hygge without a dogge. What’s the point in snuggling up on a chilly evening without the hound? Their restful and comforting presence by the fire helps elicit the deep-down sensation that all is right in the […]
The summer holidays may be over, but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop! The kids are back in the classroom, tan lines have faded, new school shoes are scuffed, and we have all slipped back into the old routine with a frightening ease like those heady days of summer never even happened (holiday? […]
Have you ever wondered how to grow your following on Instagram? How to secure more views on your social media content? Have you ever looked at the baby-faced teenagers online who seem to have totally cornered their market and felt a twinge of inadequacy? How did they get so good at it so quickly? Well, […]
The leaves are starting to turn, the blackberries are out, there’s Hallowe’en themed stuff in the shops…this can only mean one thing: the school holidays are nearly over. The time has come to buy new shoes, to check how little uniform still fits the kids (what is it with all the GROWING?), to get fresh […]
Results for A Levels and BTECs are upon us. Here at NHHQ we do hope that you all get what you were finger-crossing for, and that you move seamlessly into the next phase of global domination and world-tackling. If not, if the letters and numbers don’t turn up on that page exactly as you wanted, […]
School’s out for summer! Hooray! (Also, cue wave of panic as we look down the barrel of a six-week gun.) It’s the loooooooong school holidays, and the best thing about it is the long stretch of no-mad-dash-early-morning-school-run, which – in the NHHQ household – largely involves Mother standing in the doorway screaming, “Where is your […]
Now that summer is here, it is time for those great summer road trips! A bag of clothes and a toothbrush in the boot, the open road ahead, radio blaring out your favourite songs, countryside whisking past like a green blur….well, that’s the dream. Reality is probably more like a 5 hour traffic jam on […]
Summer holidays are coming! It’s time to dust off the suitcases, dig out the passports, book an emergency appointment at the waxing salon (TMI?) and get ready for The Big Summer Trip (henceforth referred to as the TBST). No work, no worries, and – fingers crossed – no sunburn. Taking the Dog? Increasingly, us dog-owners […]
