1/2
I thought I'd do a bit of catching up and am going to start with my week off work. Had a really super time. I got so much done and going back to the office today has really made me appreciate how nice and relaxing it was to have a break.
Starting off all that way back in time with Saturday, we had a day at the sea side :o) I'm not a big one for the beach - sand just generally pisses me off, but we managed to have a great time, in that I laid on a blanket and slept for 2 hours whilst the kids went in the sea. We had chips for tea, followed by £1 each in the arcades ( I really must watch my generosity ;oP), a yummy ice cream - sugar cones rule supreme - finishing with another £1 in the arcades. I know, mad aren't I?! Can you believe DS & DD actually won more statistically with £2 than they did on £10 at Easter on holiday.
Sunday - we went to the University Botanical Gardens in Cambridge, cos it was cheap. We had a picnic and then once again, I slept on a blanket and DD & DS ran about and generally terrorised everyone. At one point, they were across a lawn by a fountain and I could see them balancing on the ledge round a fountain. Next thing I know I think I can see them in the fountain, and I can see several people sitting on benches round the fountain and can just imagine them thinking what little yobs, I wonder who's irresponsibly in charge of them? but as I have all the bags and shoes, I cannot run across and yell so I make motions not dissimilar to Ricky Gervais' infamous dance, signalling them to get out and come here. When they finally do, I tell them off, but as I'm doing so I see they have money in their hands. Where did you get that from? I ask. Of course the little tinkers have picked it out of the fountain!! Cue me dying a thousand deaths of embarrassment.

The rest of the week, we spent: going to the dentists (where I wimped out of having a scale and polish - honestly!), went to see the Simpsons Movie, went swimming, had a major (just call me Vicky B) clean of the house, and went to buy the school uniform - just a quick £110 then. DS has size 4 shoes - agghh he's only 9!
Thus ends part 1, tune in to see me at V in part 2!
