Well I've had a month off. I was getting bored with blogging every day and my photo a day was getting boring!!! So I've decided I still want to blog but perhaps not every day and I will post the photo's that are interesting (to me anyway) and sometimes lots of them.

I've had the most relaxing weekend, I think I've fallen asleep every afternoon. We went to see the lambs at Forty Hall yesterday and today we did a walk.......................a proper walk. We haven't done that for ages. We found a pub walks book and chose one that wasn't too long at Tewin, with a very nice pub for lunch at the end. It was beautiful, so many flowers and shoots coming through and even some bluebells in a sheltered spot. We said we'll go back in a couple of weeks when they are all through.

OH my gosh I can't believe I've missed 2 days. I've been soooooo busy. I had Jake on Tuesday and come to think of it I'm sure I blogged that day!!! I think the puter was rebelling and it didnt save. In the evening we had a County team meeting which, of course, was thrilling...............not!!!My PAD was a photo of Jake for Tuesday.



Yesterday was the day we went to the House of Commons. We had a fantastic time and were treated royally by Joan Ryan and Andy Love and the guest speaker Hazel Blears. We were given a good tour of the Houses of Parliament, there were so many of us we had to be divided into small groups. My PAD is a photo from the evening.



Today was a usual day at work. Tonight is our district Cub leaders meeting and I'm sure we'll go to the pub after..........................as always.

Took my car to have her windscreen replaced today. It had a foot long crack in it! All nice and new now. I spent the afternoon typing and printing out Cub stuff and bringing the records up to date for 23rd Enfield..........................I think we're winning!!! Spent the evening at Cubs bringing their badges up to date so giving me more work to do!!!!

Sunday 8 March 2009

Oh Darn...............missed yesterday! Such a busy day. Straight from work to Scrapmates crop, then straight off to babysit Jake while Steve and Den went out on the town with their friend James for his birthday. Jake was full of beans and ratty all at the same time so getting him ready and to bed was hard work. Then...................I fell asleep!!!

My PAD (for yesterday) is, of course, Jake.

Today started bright and sunny. I considered going for a walk but decided I needed some retail therapy even more so we went to the Galleria, which was just as well because the heavy showers and blustery winds forecast came true with hailstones to boot!!! I got a gorgeous touch feely cream fleece plus an olive hoody and tee shirt from regatta and a pair of my fave jeans in the M&S outlet and, of course, a visit to the paper Mill was productive!!!

Got out of work at a decent time this afteroon and met Denise at Matalan. She needed some trousers to wear to go back to work next week. I bought some pyjamas for myself.

Girls night out tonight.

Jake came to visit me at work today as Denise had an hygienist appointment. No- one could believe how big he was! We went to Da Lillo for lunch and they were all over him. Christian was there which was great as he doesn't often do lunchtimes. I must get Jake a set of Duplo as he loved the set at work.

Met Andy, Chloe and Cara in the pub to organise a bit more for district camp and, of course, a lot of chat.

I was drawn into Tim Holtz' blog earlier and had to revisit his 12 tags of Christmas so, as I completel forgot to take a photo of Jake at the dentist, my PAD is a shot of T H's blog and some of the tags.
