back at work . .

had a lovely weekend away in Leicester with my matey Katie for little Callum's christening. Drove up on Saturday by lunch time, watched the rugby in the pub til 8 ish, then back to Kate's for some food, then stayed in drinking wine and playing 'saucy charades'. Much fun. And my mime of "An eager beaver" had to be seen to be believed !!!

Up and in church for 10.30 (I know !!!!!!!!!). Fabulous 'Family Service' - noisy but fun, then the main event, which the little fella slept through ! Bless him. Then off to the pub, there til 10 ish. Very full of beer. Off to bed. Drove home and picked Jack up by Monday lunch time and then the 3 of ish had some grub and fell asleep on the settee ! Back to work this morning - booooo !

But a lovely weekend - if a bit boozy. But then it wouldn't be a trip to Leicester without booze !

Since Thursday . . .

have drunk wine mostly ! Yeah me. Also did a little bit of shopping with me burfday dosh. Managed to mow the front lawn on Saturday afternoon. Then it snowed on and off most of the day on Sunday. Garden always looks nice when covered in pristine white snow - pristine except for the Billy badger tracks !

Plenty of snow around this morning still - in our road anyway. But our road always seems to attract frost, snow, ice etc, when the next road up is totally clear ! hey ho. it won't be 'our road' much longer.

Wished my mate Kate in Leicester a Happy Huffty, and looking forward to a long weekend up there next weekend for Callum's christening (and to watch the Tigers in the EDF final , albeit watch on the TV only, cos we turned down tickets for Twickers!! well its the day before the Christening - and a bit expensive at the mo) .

Anyhoo. Just noticed that Whitless @ ADP appears to have got married - swift work after a 10+ year courtship ! Each to their own I guess. I do hope there are no little Whitlesses on the way - urrrgggggh !

Happy Birthday to ME !!!

21 again - how time flies !!
Had some lovely pressies- amethyst ring, perfume, LOADS of craft bits and pieces for cardmaking, photo album,mug,chocolates (yummy) and dosh. Yeah me !!!!

Thanks for all my cards too - some really lovely ones.

Stopped off to get petrol on the way to work - and came out with petrol and a sausage bap !! Oh well. . . . .

Going to The Old Fish Market at lunch with some of the guys. They do a Thai menu and its scrummy so looking forward to that already. I'm sure as soon as I finish my sausage bap, and the pain au chocolate I bought in, and some of my chocs, I'll be starving by lunch time !!! hee hee

House on the market

So the house we rent (which is my sister's house) is officially on the market.
You can see it here

If you look carefully you may be able to see that each and every room has a pretty damn fine collection of pigs !! No one would know I was piggy-mad would they eh
