Blog

As we’re driving to Mr B’s mum’s I glance out of the window to see two vapour trails crossing in the sky.

They are neat and deliberate looking, and I can’t help visualizing the near miss that might have been. I look down at the point the two trails meet to check for smoke, rubble, and erm, craters??
I know none will be there. I mean, we’d have heard it on the news, they’d have blocked the road off, and well, there’d have been a huge cloud of burning ash we could probably have seen from our house, but there is nothing.

Involuntarily I imagine the two pilots in their mini planes, Dastardly and Muttley, blackguards of the sky.
I see a game of dare gone wrong, nobody backing down at the last minute, clipped wings and trimmed egos. I see cartoon pilots in scarves and goggles, ‘cabbage crates over the briney’ and all that.

A glazed expression is fixed on my face. Any one driving past us will probably look at Mr B with sympathy.
I look a bit like this.

Do you know what Miss M sees?

Miss M: “Mummy, dare’s a kiss in the sky.”

Talking of kisses, gorgeous Mya has bestowed upon me a full on snog.

‘It’s a big kiss, of the chaste, platonic kind, from me to you with the underlying ‘thanks’ message implied. I really do appreciate your support and your friendship, and yes, your comments.’

That’s the bit you have to put. Mya is far less ladylike… ;)

Isn’t it fabulous dwarlings?
And no risk of passing on any lergy with virtual tongue sarnies right?

So, I am blowing this to;

Holly
Cami
Kim
Belle Diary Of a Housewife
Leendaluu
Lori
Avery
Corey (Nearly forgot you sweetie.  Bad Jo.)

Ta for being such fantabulous blog babes.

    Cami, I love you too.

    Lori, planes scare me a little. But they do fly, so that’s ok.

    Kim, ta sweetie.

    Lee, bling is good. And glad you’re feeling better.

    Belle, thanks hon. Glad you’re back.

    Hee hee, Holl, that’s my best dress. I’m almost offended.
