#KCACOLS – 13th December 2015

Hola chicos, welcome back to another week of my linky #KCACOLS (KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON LINKING SUNDAY!).  Thank you again for all your support. We are doing better than ever with 63 link ups!! THANK YOU so much for being part of this linky! For all the new people joining us this week I really hope you like #KCACOLS and that you come back again next week!

We are now half way through December so I’m feeling a little bit more Christmassy and I have done some changes to the my linky image and also to the look of my blog! What do you think? Do you like it?

I had a busy week again but it was manageable this time. As I mentioned last Saturday we got some extra help with Sienna this week so it was amazing to have a few more hours each day to catch up. Nick and I went to an event on Wednesday night on our own with no children. HURRAH!! I don’t remember the last time we were actually out without the children. It felt AMAZING!! The event was about the launch of the first British-made electrical wheel called Uniwheel. It was so much fun. Nick actually tried it but he was not very good though!! LOL See below a sneak peak of the event:

Anyway, now back to the linky. Thank you so much for still taking the time to comment. It is so nice to see that about 6 posts had 8 comments just from this linky and one post had 9 comments!! How fantastic is that!!! I’m so excited and grateful to have such a fantastic group of people joining the linky! You are all amazing!! ALTHOUGH again for this week I had a few people that linked up and ran, leaving no comments at all. 🙁 This makes me incredibly sad and as we all know this is not the purpose of this linky! #KCACOLS is all about spreading the love! I will remove people from the linky if they do that as it is not fair for everybody else. I can understand that this can happen occasionally as I have been guilty of this sometimes but when it happens every week I’m not happy at all. I will keep reminding people directly to comment on the post linked up before them.

I would like to say THANK YOU to LYNNE from New Mummy Blog for helping me with last week’s commenting. She was AMAZING!!! What a great guest co-host she was!! 🙂

This weekend my guest co-host is ELLIE from Hand Me Down Baby.  Please give her some love. These are her social media accounts (Twitter, Instagram). She will also be retweeting your tweets this week so please add her twitter handle (@HandMeDownBaby) to your tweets as well as mine. Finally she has a guest co-host post, On Not Being Very Crafty linked up too. Please if you could go there and add a comment it would be AWESOME!!

The second person who has commented the most for this week is the beautiful SANDY from Mommy’s Little Princesses.  She is as always my number one commentator every week. I’m so excited to have her soon as my guest co-host. It will be a lot of fun! She is always FANTASTIC! She commented 43 posts. Thank you so much lovely! Her post from last week was Our Sitting Pretty Photoshoot. This is a lovely post with so many beautiful photos of Sandy’s gorgeous little girls. Please go back to her post and give her more love if you can!

I just wanted to mention that just behind Lex and Sandy was Jessica from Babi a Fi with 14 comments and then I had 4 more beautiful people that commented 9 posts each  and they are Sara from Handy Herbs, Fiona from Coombe Mill, Claire from Tin Box Traveller and Julie from Sleeping Through Yet. This is fantastic. Thank you so much lovely ladies!!! 🙂

For this week’s linky I am linking up 2 posts: “Magic Desktop Review – Is your Computer Safe for Kids?” and “Kidzania London Review“. My 2nd post is an old post that I wrote in the summer. This was our first family day out review. There is also a video that has more than 13k views already so I thought it could be nice to share with you lovely people. We had such a great time and because we are now in the festive holidays it could be a fun and interesting activity to do with your kids. I hope you like them! 😉

Please do not forget to follow and check out the #KCACOLS Pinterest Board. I have pinned all your posts from last week so please go and have a look. There are some great posts that deserve a read!

Finally, I would like to remind you again about the main rule (commenting on the post previous to yours) to make it fair for all. Most of you have done it but unfortunately there are still a few that haven’t followed the rule. 🙁 Please do your best to remember this and also to add the #KCACOLS hashtag when you comment on the other posts. If you don’t receive a comment from the person that has linked up next to you, please let me know as I’m now  contacting the person owing the comment with a reminder so they don’t forget to do this.

PLEASE READ BELOW:

I just wanted to say that I know that this linky allows any kind of posts old or new but I would like to make a slight amendment to that. You are allowed to link up another linky ONLY if it is a promotional post about the linky and you can do this only once. I don’t think its very fair to link up your own linky to someone else’s linky just for the sake of it. If you want to promote a new linky you are welcome to do this but just once and I expect you to put my badge or a link to my linky and of course to follow the rules regarding commenting. Not just a link up and run. I hope you all agree with this.

Now let’s carry on with the linky:

Rules:

Each week I will choose the post of the person who has commented the most and I will feature it on my weekly “KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON LINKING SUNDAY” (#KCACOLS) linky post. To link up simply grab the badge and link up your old or new posts. As usual there are some rules that you need to follow in order to make this linky work for all of us. Please see below:

1. Be sure to grab the “Keep Calm and Carry On Linking Sunday” – #KCACOLS badge which can be found below or on my sidebar. Simply copy the code from the box below the badge and add it to the text/html at the bottom of your post or place it on your blog sidebar.

2. You can link up to 2 posts per week.

3. You can share anything that you would like. It is open to absolutely any subject and also you can link up posts that are old or new.

4. Comment on one of the hosts posts (choose one that you would like to comment on as I will be linking up 2 posts every week if possible). Then comment the guest co-host. Then comment on the post which is linked up immediately before yours and finally any other post that you would like to comment on. That way everybody receives at least two comments (one from the host/guest co-host and one from others). This is a really important rule which I need you to follow, otherwise this linky will not work. We should be spreading the love by sharing. This is the only way that a linky party can be beneficial for all.

5. This linky will be open every Saturday from 10 pm and will remain open until Wednesday at 11.59 pm.

6. If you would like us to tweet your post that is absolutely fine, just tweet your link to me @WithFranca and to Ellie @HandMeDownBaby and we will both retweet it. Please remember to use the hashtag #KCACOLS.

7. Finally, if you could please follow A Moment With Franca (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest  Bloglovin and Google+) that would be fantastic!! 😉

I look forward to reading and commenting  your posts!! 🙂
