The last war Liechtenstein took part in was in 1866. They sent out 80 men for the Austro Prussian war. 81 returned - the original 80, unscathed, and a friend they'd made along the way.

My #3GoodThings for #Tuesday:
1. My car got hit today. Not a good thing in itself...but fortunately it was caught on CCTV and the person who did it is going to pay to fix it!!! 😑
2. Pancake day!! Didn't have one myself - but the kids enjoyed theirs 😋

#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

My #3GoodThings for #Monday:
1. Music ALL day 🎧🎶
2. Gym session 💪🏻 - saw someone suggest online that you cover the screen of the treadmill/bike and just go for it because you get distracted by the numbers otherwise. I estimated doing 10 minutes on the bike (by using my phone as a rough guide) at a leisurely pace and it really didn't feel like it was long or tiring while doing it AND I managed 3km!! Watching the numbers/screen definitely has it's downfall!
3. Receiving the kind of messages that just make you smile because you know someone is thinking of you 🥰
#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

My #3GoodThings for #Tuesday:
1. Youngest has got her leavers hoodie for her last year of primary school and is absolutely made up with it 😁
It's a little bittersweet for me as she's my last baby and while I'm looking forward to her going to high school and seeing her flourish and grow some more, that also comes with the realisation that she's not little anymore 😢
2. Played some Mario with my son. He was keen to have a go at some of the challenges and I showed him how it was done haha 🤓
3. Third week doing aerial hoop and we were mostly doing rolls, but I was made up because I managed to flip myself backwards and upside down through the hoop as well as climb up to the top bar and hook my legs over them and then get down without just falling 💪🏻 (I am very bruised though 😂)
#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

My #3GoodThings for #Thursday:
1. Went to the hairdressers 💇🏻‍♀️ She confirmed that my hair has started to grow back again all over and is about 2 inches long in most places 🙌🏻 So hopefully it'll start getting thicker again!
2. Took the kids to the circus at Blackpool Tower. We've been a handful of times before and it's always a good show (Never been in February before though) and they didn't disappoint this time either 😊 Understandably we're not allowed to take pictures of the performance, but I did take a before and after of the arena, it's such a beautiful sight at the base of the tower and the finale of the show is always a water one as the floor fills up with 42,000 gallons of water in less than a minute 😯
3. Late night driving. I love driving late at night when the roads are empty. Some music on and good conversation with a friend or loved one are a bonus too. Always have enjoyed this, it was a common occurrence in my youth 🚗
#3goodthingstoday #ThreeGoodThings #thingstobehappyabout

My #3GoodThings for #Sunday:
1. Had a little lie-in...and then when I did get up I made myself a coffee and breakfast and went back to bed with it as that's where it was warmest 😏
2. Went to the park with the youngest (she'd arranged to meet up with some friends) I think she was thankful for me taking her considering how cold it was, as she made me a coffee when we got back without me even asking 🤷🏻‍♀️🥰
3. Laughing at Friday Night Dinner with the kids 😂

1. It was #WhiskersWednesday - I've missed it the last few weeks, but actually remembered today 😸
2. Spending time with family - particularly enjoyed watching my dad read my nephew a book about trains while he appeared to watch and listen so intently. It really warmed my heart 🥰
3. Had a "pasta party" at my sisters. Her partner made 4 different types of pasta based meals and we just lined up and helped ourselves (my sister has always loved pasta!) There was spaghetti bolognese, chicken carbonara, cajun chicken and macaroni cheese 😋

My #3goodthings for #Saturday:
1. After wearing a bra that wasn't a good fit yesterday, I really appreciated the one that was today 👍🏻

Completely oblivious to the time 😬 It's been a busy one!
My #3goodthings for #Saturday are:
1.Cleared out the porch & have coats/shoes ready for the charity shop ☺️
2.Cleaned out the fishtank 🐟 First time I've done a complete water change since the babies appeared.
3.Did some #barebow today (which I've not done in a while) Was doing my best Hawkeye impression using my back quiver. I got 4 golds in my best end, so I don't think I did too bad.

My #3goodthings for #Wednesday are:
1. The sun has been shining ALL day 🌞
