    Polly, reading about your past, I am so so thankful for my DH of 44 years (in September), who is caring, kind and all I could ask for in a husband. 
    I'm glad you escaped when you could. xx

    White jeans, Burtha? Of course, that's not a disaster waiting to happen, is it? Just don't lean against the Fence, it's just been painted......

    Hope you've had a fantastic day, burtha!
    Just popped in after a busy day at Teesside airshow! I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. It's years since I went to an airshow, and they were usually the American bases, so today was a nice change.

    morning all . 
    thank you 
    yesterday was fun . it was fabulous to actually see people again , lovely meal , a show then dancing till I drove home at 10pm .. was such a giggle. 
    biggest bonas was my youngest dd managing to control her anxieties and have a lovely day, 
    now just 5 weeks till the wedding .

    no wedding stuff today , got a sitting room containing half the content of dd University flat that needs moved, but it can wait till I've walked the dog.  it's sunny but breezy here . 

    the airshow sounds fun , wonder if the other big one is on this year at Sunderland?? 

    just eaten a ys chocolate croissant I picked up in the garage last night .. don't feel soo guilty for eating it now  :D

    hope everyone has a lovely day x

    That croissant is ideal, Burtha, refuelling you after the night's exertions. Hope you didn't get your white jeans filthy!

    It looks like Sunderland air show is off this year, but to us it doesn't seem like a regular one, held on an airfield. We just watch for the planes coming overhead on their way back to base!
    Glad you had a good time yesterday, burtha.
