    Some housework has been done, had a bath and then we went downstairs as the local council have organised a fun day to try and help the traders who suffered with the local roadworks. It seems they put about as much effort into this as they did with asking the workmen to work quietly :rolleyes: :rolleyes: I'm fairly sure they could be done under some trade descriptions act for daring to call it a funday ... there are 3 slightly overweight old men winging "I've got a combine harvester" continually outside the church which happens to be right opposite us, so I have the joy of that all afternoon. Other than that there are a few balloons on some lamposts and a bloke walking up and down the street on stilts :o:o Ds kept asking me where the fun bits were :rolleyes: :rolleyes: err, thats it son, take it or leave it :o Hence within less than 5 minutes we were back indoors in the warm with the telly on :D

    Hello my lovely, I was thinking do you want us down just after lunch on Wed or shall we come for the day? I have some friends round in the evening so could do with being home by 6ish at the latest so I can get little miss into bed before they arrive. But obviously we'll go with what is best for you :D
