Today both our children were in nursery so my husband and I took the opportunity to have a day out together and we went back to the place we first met and lived. York will always be a very special place to us, it’s where we first met, where we first lived together and where we got married and going back there always brings the memories flooding back.

Our first date together started here…

I was an hour late and so we missed our original meeting place of Parliament Square and outside the Zara store just happened to be where I was when we found each other. When deciding on the name for our first baby we jokingly said we should do a “Posh” and name it after where we met if it was a girl. Thinking it over we realised we actually loved the name and after looking up the meaning which is “the brightness of Dawn” it just had to be and so Zara was named.

Back to our first date, after meeting outside Zara we then decided to go for a drink at a bar that we both knew….

Yes you’ve guessed it, following a theme when trying to decide on a boys name we came up with Oscar as this is where we had our first drink together, again we happen to love the name and so it was decided. Luckily we had a boy second time round as we didn’t have a name with such a relevant meaning if it were a girl.

And now we’ve had 2 children we are stopping as if we carried on with our theme our third child would be called Pitcher and Piano and I think that’s just taking it a bit too far
