The concert last night was lovely even though it rained a bit, and it was an outside picnic in the park job. DD kept shouting that's my daddy, and everybody laughed when DH stopped the concert, apologised and told everyone she would never forgive him if he didn't give her a wave

Aw bless, that sounds lovely!

Morning everyone!

Lovely and cool here now the rain has finally arrived. We managed a quick brekkie of pancakes in the garden yesterday morn before the heavens opened. We spent the afternoon/eve at the festival browsing all the wonderfull stalls. Lots of craft stalls with people doing demos, and some plant stalls. Bought some more herbs for the new 'patch' of land - even got a 'bay' for £1.20.
Also found a stall that had maps/leaflets of some local walks with bits to make it more interesting for kiddies so will give some a try - at least it's a free way to do stuff with my boys.
I think the boys favourite bit was the 'medieval' display - lots dressed up in various old armour who then went on to do a 'battle'. It was good as instead of just 'lecturing' they also gave a storyline and made everyone laugh - esp when they went 'round to check who was 'alive' by proding the 'vulnerable' bits with swords All of this takes place on the bank of an old castle - it kinda gives you goose bumps!
Well, sun is now shining again and the plan is to return to the festival today.
DS1 is out on his paper round, DS2 at the bands house and DS3 is fast asleep in bed. If I'm quick I might just manage to catch up on the past few days threads!
Best wishes to all,

kiwi isnt there someone who could sit with your kids for a couple of hours so you could at least attend the church part of the christening and see old friends? I've got friends 40th to come back to in december and im looking forward to seeing everyone again and ive not left yet hee hee

dd is at her dads this weekend and im sorting out her room to pack, she has already binned what she doesnt want so now it just needs packing up and bringing downstairs..

both my next door neighbours are avoiding me for a few days as everytime i see them they start crying, so nice knowing that i will be missed..

my washing line fell down and snapped in half so im not going to bother replacing it for a couple of days so im sorry but im putting tumble dryer on to make sure everything is washed and dried before the move..

I dont think she would sit with anyone TBH, you know how they are when they are sick, just want to cuddle mummy all day. I can't drive (well I can really but they just wont give me a license !!!!) so couldnt even leave dh with her while I go .

Got some more Christmas shopping done yesterday and gained 450 points on my WHSmiths card in the process:T

Morning Everyone

Just posting before I read the thread as DD is bound to get me waylayed some how. Hugs to anybody who needs them.

The flaming cat brought another bird in this morning so the whole house was awake at 7am.

Got a christening to go to later and then off to in-law to see if the decking has been finished, both me and DH nearly murdered someone yesterday so hes using the christening as an excuss not to go and help them finish off . I think hes done more than his share as he appears to be the only on who didnt have to stop for regular beer breaks :beer: . Real sensible my FIL always a good idea to mix alcohol and power tools :eek: (not).

Apart from that I need to go to Tesco when it opens and pick up some milk. Iron work clothes for week and sort out what DD is going to take to Grandmas for her meals this week that nice and easy as it all done in the freezer.

Have a good day everyone

Planning a nice lazy day today, did lots of cleaning yesterday, and then went to a friends for tea, which was lovely. I still need to sort out all our clothes, so i think once im dressed, i might stay up there and get that done (if i can get myself off MSE!!!!) Have already stripped my bed, and its all in the WM, the forecast is nice today, rain tomorrow, so hoping to get all the washing done today before the rain returns!!!!
Right, going to have a quick surf, and then (hopefully) get on with some sorting out!

Hope everyone has a lovely day
Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
