Tonight I am at a secret location in lovely historic Bath, where myself, and a whole bunch of fabulous chicks will be toasting our mate Lucy who gets married at the end of this month. We arrived here yesterday where if all went to plan we were visited by a wonderful chef who came […]
Mr B and I don’t often get time alone together. He works all day and after we’ve had dinner and put the two little monkeys to bed there are just a few hours of awake time left, many of which I spend on the pc in our kitchen, blogging and writing and reading, […]
Babs the ostrich here.
They are home, but…
Jo is busy wrapping prezzies as tomorrow Miss E will be 8 years old. The first load of washing has gone in the machine, some bags are unpacked, a bottle of wine is about to be opened and two small girls are almost fast asleep.

The same Auntie who stayed with us last week.
The same Auntie who means the world to me.
The same Auntie who is putting us up in her spare room and allowing two […]
Can’t stop.
Packing and sweating, packing and sweating.
Yeah I know, ‘ladies don’t sweat they perspire’, but it’s so close here that even the girls are sleepy and wet headed in their beds. I think we’re going to be in for a storm, which is fine tonight, I love storms, but I don’t want to […]
Thanks for all the lovely comments yesterday everybody. I am full of warm squidginess and feeling loads better. Just a quickie post tonight as I plan to sleep the sleep of the very sleepy person who has had some sleep sandwiches and is now off to bed. So I will leave you […]
