    Evening all,

    Big hugs Mumoffour xx.

    The party went really well apart from we had to wait until the rain stopped to do the fireworks. Most of the cleaning up has been done so tomorrow i'll just need to run the hoover around, clean the Utility room floor again and pick up all the dead fireworks from the garden. I also need to find my other list at some point but i'm too tired to do it now.

    AnWsMum and hollyh pleased you have had a good time
    AnWsMum hope the parade goes well, DS2 is awake now after coughing and being sick so I think we may have to give the parade a miss :(

    greenbee will be on her stopover by now, or near to it....hope all is well

    Enjoyed the walk (once DH stopped being grumpy - I am trying to cut him some slack as he's got a lot on at the moment :rolleyes:) and it was about 15 miles in the end. I'm a bit achy as it's a while since we walked that far (and it only took 4.5 hours which is a good pace!) but I had a bath when we got in. The fresh air has done me good and I'm tired so will be heading to bed soon with my book. :D

    Just checking in on you all! I've arrived, made it to the hotel, had a quick swim and now need to go to bed - alarm is set so I have time to wash, pack & dress and leave in time for tomorrow morning's flight. If my jet lag kicks in and I wake up early I'll either get some work done or go to the gym.

    Glad you enjoyed your walk rach

    (((hugs))) for carol & mumoffour77

    Good to see you've all been working hard... meant to say other things but I'm just far too tired! Hope you all have a great day tomorrow (today... Sunday)
