I hope you like the wellies!

Snow Joke!

It doesn't normally do this here until February! Could be a long
winter living on top of a hill in 'sunny' Eastbourne!

Ikea!

I dropped Auntie Lesley to Heathrow and took a sneaky trip to Ikea on
the way home, bought lots of Christmas decorations and was home in
time to pick up the kids from school.

Crazy Hair Day

normal to me!!

Demonstration!

During a most necessary shopping trip to Brighton we got caught up in
the student protests. Luckily it was all very peaceful... I did look
among the crowd for Joe as I'm quite sure he was involved but couldn't
see him. Hardly surprising when the march consisted of around 4000!

I predict a riot!

I predict a riot!
Looks like the police did too...!

for good measure.... And, yes that is Sonic on the bed post! Heaven

Fit for a princess!

During half term I decided to give the kids rooms mini makeovers...
This is what Izzy's room now looks like.
Dumb and blonde as ever, I forgot to take the 'before' picture but
trust me this is a vast improvement.

Nightclub!

I know this looks like I'm out for the night but it's actually Max's
school disco where I offered to help... There were 400 seven and eight
year olds... Needless to say it was rather lively especially as the
fizzy drinks were included in the ticket price.

Autumn Celebration.

At Izzy's school...The kids did a 'performance' Which was interesting!
Here she is with her friend Katie.

Not bad! I only bought one strip of tickets for £1!

Stayawakeathon!

Izzy is having a sleepover with her best and oldest friend Alice...
I'm sure that not much sleeping will be done! They have already tucked
away pizza and dough balls, are working their way through the popcorn
towards the icecream. They're in their pj's watching a movie and it's
only just 7pm.... Could be a long night!

Friday 8 October 2010

Delay

Ours is the top flight on the board! I know it looks like were flying
a little late... What it doesn't show is that the 12,50 departure time
was supposed to be on the 10th not the 11th! We actually arrived home
around 30 hours after expected!
Holiday pics to follow.

Red Nose Day

Like mad dogs and Englishmen we took both options and therefore all
have red noses!
But we are here safely and having lots of fun.

glasses on... I wonder if his dreams were in 3d?

Going down!

Intact this company has well and truly gone down.... Shame it's who we
have our holiday flights booked with!!!
Hopefully we can find something else....?

Free Bar

This may not seem like the most exciting bar until you know that it's
part of the office where Sam's working, serves Peroni (in authentic
glasses) and is completely free Twiglets and all!

Crystal encrusted mini car.

This car is encrusted with crystals in 50 colours for the 50 states of
America it has scenes from each state and is worth over a million

Not London Bridge!

Of course this is a bridge in London which is where we are for a few
days with Izzy and Max. We were very lucky to see Tower Bridge open
which only happens once in a blue moon these days... (or blue sky
today I'm very pleased to say).
