Hi everyone. Hope you all had a good weekend. Not had chance to catch up on the thread yet - think I'll have to do that tonight.
Had a FAB weekend in London - we really made the most of it and went on the London eye, walked along the Southbank, went to the London Dungeons, Covent Garden, Buckingham Palace, St. James' Park, Downing Street, Big Ben, & the houses of Parliament, Petticoat Lane market and Spittlefields Market. Don't think we did too bad considering we arrived at 3.30pm Friday and left at 1.30pm Sunday!!!!! Missed the girls but we did enjoy having a little time to ourselves.
Back to reality now. Not done the kitchen yet but have hung a load of washing out and cut the grass and done a bit of weeding at the front. Off to do the school run and then get some shorts for the race on Sunday. Bit worried though as I won't be able to run 6 miles in this heat! Love the sun but praying for 2 hours of cold, wet weather on Sunday morning!!!!0 -

AnW's Mum - I saw that car clamping thing - clever I say. Who's going to spend £200 to get a car unclamped when it's worth £50?!? Some jobsworth clamping his car for 2 inches... Ridiculous.
