Goings on!

So this week we've tried hard to fill our half-term abyss of time, quite successfully I think! On Monday Nana came to see us (sorry no photographic evidence!), but we had a lovely, lovely day.

On Tuesday we had an "interesting" visit to Funky monkeys indoor play centre, the less said about that the better! Nick and I went out for a romantic (?) meal whilst Heather babysat in the evening which was very enjoyable.

On Wednesday we visited the Thurlby home where we discovered that five children under six in a confined space can be great fun as long as there's enough of you to crowd control, comfort cousins who've fallen into fireplaces in a fit of passion, (I got photographic evidence of the passion though!) and are not averse to a teeny(?) bit of noise! Anyway, it was great fun.

This is beginning to sound a bit like an online appointments diary!!!! Sorry.

On Thursday we had a visit from the MaxArry crowd (again no photos) and on Friday we just existed - which was a bit of a relief!

So on Saturday, I went on a very successful (Nick would say "expensive") shopping trip with Mum. Prime target... wedding outfit and lo and behold, an outfit, complete with shoes AND bag have been purchased... obviously along with lots of other "very necessary" stuff. So, erm....Nick looked after the girls. I believe dressing up was the order of the day, oh and teaching Jessica inappropriate phrases whilst watching football. I'll let Nick explain.

And finally today. We have been and fed the ducks with Heather and Fred this morning, and a little mooch around town (for no particular reason Graham!). Sleeps for little girls as Heather and Fred invited us all around for tea, which, coincidentally, was; a) duck and b) delicious! Even Jessica ate potato and it WASN'T deep fried! (Will wonders never cease!)

So there you have it, a week in the life of. It's been a blast!
