    Hi MWC

    I dip into your diary regularly now and again and it usually brightens my day :)
    As a mum of an Aspergers son who just loooves all animals that last post of the wee man hugging a feathered friend just brought a little tear to my eye :) in a good way!
    Hope all is well with you otherwise.

    S.x

    Faded :T

    A busy weekend - more clothes shopping, the annual fungal foray and visiting family

    Now I'm packing for my business trip - not really in the mood so I'm sure to forget something...

    I'm back - have I missed much?!

    A quick update from me:

    My presentation was shockingly bad :(
    Apart from that the trip was fun :)
    5 little hats knitted at 36,000 ft :T
    Eggs = 24 (although some of those are from last weekend)
    Mr MWC went racing today and came home very drunk... he went straight to bed!
    It's payday :j
