Oh buggery me ....

and here I was thinking ... hey I'm on holiday ... I can blog daily and keep everyone updated !!! NOT !!!

I swear time goes sooooo much faster here UK side !!!

So quick catch up ... since we've been here ... I saw the Olympic Torch relay ... wow did not expect to see anything about the Olympics in our neck of the woods... but it was really nice to be part of a piece of history ... got the pics, got the badge ... did not get the t-shirt LOL !!!

Since we've been here have met up with Gussy Tucker, Billy No Mates1 and Mrs McD.... fantastic to catch up with the girls, get all the gossip, have a great old laugh ... really miss the good ole' times ....

Went shopping with Jane ... took a quick visit to YORK ... wow another unexpected ... well P & K were up there working ... done IKEA shopping, Chesvegus a bit of shopping ... still have more to do there ... in fact this next week is going to have to be just shopping .... cos I'm running out of time ... my list is longer than the days !!!

Ooooh stocked up on some crafts... thanks to Trimcraft, placed quite a few Internet orders this weekend ... now to wait for all the stuff to arrive during the week...

Oh!!! was abandoned by my boys Wed - Friday ... they were down south working ... so really had all my time to myself and still managed to run out of of it !!! My new TOY BOY Martyn (PMSL) kept me entertained for part of the time they were away !!! Poor lad was left all alone with me and my rantings & ravings ... I doubt he'll ever forgive P & K !!!!

Disaster of the whole holidays .... I only managed to LOCK myself out of my SA bank accounts ... now stop laughing all of you ... it's almost a cataclysmic disaster ... I am struggling to shop without all my 'spendy' money !!! and now I HAVE to let Paul know how much I'm spending ... can you see why that was such a disaster ???

Took K back to his old school this weekend, they had their Summer fair...shame it was rained out so early ... a bit of a trip down memory lane for both of us but felt really good when a couple of the mum's made such a fuss over him ... and me !!!

And so we're onto our final week AGAIN !!!

I'm not going to say MUCH about the weather !!! only that it has been CRAP ... or rather typically BRITISH !!!
