Excuses Excuses or how 1 night turns to 3

Ok I have at 312 excuses as to why I have not blogged for ages.


Excuse number 1 wine
Ok not really an excuse but I have just spent 3 fantatsic nights in Derbyshire with one of my closest friends and I took some wine  this was a fab bottle


Ok why are clouds an excuse?

Well Saturday morning we sat outside and I just happened to snap some clouds like you do


Excuse number 3 . This is Linda we have laughed so much this weekend and basically had a good sisterly time


Excuse 4 the house in the background is where I was staying what more could I have needed


Ok I spent ages taking photos but one rain storm and this would have been missed


There is something about dry stone walling.

and finally this little lady Milly Mullen is the most adorable puppy she took up so much time just playing a cuddling.

Now what do you think you are off to stay with a friend over night so you take Undies and two different tops to cater for hot or cold weather ?
Yes thats what I did but did not have enough as on the Saturday morning it was decided that I would stay Sat night as well . No prob had two tops and it was cold Sunday and hand washed undies perfect.
Yes but then Sat pm met Linda's neighbour and she suggested going to her church Sunday at 6.30pm ok I will travel hme after " NO stay the night" ok so I did and basically thats what happened and thats how one night turned to 3.
BUT IT WAS FANTASTIC THANKS LINDA AND ROY

Long Weekend

Wow its nearly the end of May already, and time to celebrate a 3 day break, bit like our Spokane family, Happy Memorial weekend.

I am fortunate have all next week off for half term then only 7 weeks left , that means 35 days or 175 hours of class time.

We have a ha semi house full tonight , well from 4am when Becky and Carl return from Malta. It will be good to catch up and celebrate her birthday as well.

Tomorrow we have a Eurovision song contest party http://www.eurovision.tv/page/home you either fall into the love it or hate it category. Ian hates it I love it as does my friend Alex who is co hosting with me.

The theme is obviously Eurovision with optional fancy dress. Oh and something European to nibble on.

And then on Monday we have Dirk and Louise, Elliot 8, Jacques 16 months and Theo 4 weeks staying for 2 nights.

We also have to fit in on Sunday the canal carnival where Chris is taking part in a canal boat pull wearing a Toga ( pics will be taken).

And then Monday its carnival day and again an opportunity to see Chris on the rugby float with his spray on tan and having an Hawaiian beech party.

So as you can see a quiet weekend for us. The most annoying thing is that Aunt Jean sent me an email about David Austin Roses open weekend bother I would like to have done that but there is no time.


Tootsie Purrfecting her revision skills.Amazingly she can read upside down.
Well I am off to work now. Have a great weekend everyone will post again soon.
