27th April - Party Night

Off to the pub at 4.30pm!! We went to the Pride of Paddington. Good weather so we stood outside with our drinks. Lots of people popped along from the office which was really great :) Stayed here longer than intended - 7.15pm - We then caught a taxi to Sway in Covent Garden/Holborn.

I stuck to one drink - Cocktails!! Had lots of Sex on the Beach. Really good that Eimear, Kathy and Niki came along as well, especially with the drive from Newbury. Ava also came along and it was lovely to see her again. Big hugs Karen - Such a shame that you couldn't make it and I know how much you would have loved being there - Would have been good to repay your hospitality from last year and introduced you to my mad bunch.

Ill have to steal some photos off people from last night and then I will post them on here.

Now going to chill for a while in the garden in the sun...it could be the middle of summer.

Wednesday 25th April

Oh dear... my 40...when did I get that old???!

I had a terrific day.

Balloons, red roses, flowers, presents..... :) I'm so lucky

Good day and everyone lovely to me - Lots of kisses.

Team meeting in the morning and had chocolate cake.

Met Sue and Julian at lunchtime - It was great to see them.

Then a drink at Neros in the afternoon with my favourite man (who gave me perfume)

Quick couple of drinks at the pub then caught the 6.05pm train - With flowers and balloons :)

Niki picked my up at 7.30pm and went to the Rowbarge for a meal with Niki, Liam, Kathy, Danielle and Kath came along for a drink.

So all in all a lovely day and spoilt rotten..... now onto Friday and our Big Night out!

Sunday at the Jade Cottage

Started the morning off with a Body Pump class :) not certain its going to help enough for my holiday, oh well!

Went to the Jade Cottage as the start of my Birthday celebrations / commiserations !! (if I could spell!)

Had a lovely lunch, with great company. Mum and dad got me inflatiable balloons and decorated the table with my age and little stars. The food was good as usual though it was very quiet in there - Obviously because the sun was out so everyone else was lazying around

I think that everyone enjoyed themselves.

In the afternoon Kathy, Danielle and Lewis called round with a bottle of fizzy red - Very nice. Then later wandered round to Kathy and watch a DVD, THe Guardian, actually very good, but reminded us of Top Gun! (but for life guards!!)

..and as this is Monday...only just over day before I'm....old!!

Just a Lazy weekend...

Well I avoid the usual Friday night out! Quite a few of the "regulars" on holiday and not necessarily feeling up to a night of partying - Sam C tried to persuade me to go for that 1 drink..but that 1 drink never quite stays as just the 1!! :) So caught my usual 5.06pm train home.

Today I started some exercise - Body Combat - And in about an hour popping to Nikis as we are going out for a walk , along the canal from Newbury (near Hambridge Rd junction) to Thatcham and then back. Depending on the time I might pop over to Alisons after as Ed broke his arm last weekend in 2 places, then this evening i can be even more exciting and do my Tesco shopping!

Tomorrow - Not so lazy day planned - At home - Body Pump - Then to sort out my spare room, do some ironing for the week (maybe organise ironing to go to Anns) sort out loads of other little things that just haven't been done.

Portugal Here I come!

Well finally got my arse into gear!

Have booked another surfing holiday, leaving on the 5th May back on the 12th May. Going to Portugal with SurfSouthWest.

So..totally unfit...going to have to do something about that otherwise a waste of a holiday - Also trying to work out whether I should go the whole hog and buy a surf board! And if i want them to make me one I supect I've left it too late!

Easter weekends and Sofas

Well after a shopped out Easter weekend!! Spent too much in Ikea and M&S...but at least I don't have to pay for the sofa unitl a week before delivery! This should be in 8 weeks time.

Have order a 2 seater sofa and armchair from Marks and Spencers during their sale - Still expensive but lovely and soft.

Weather has been good and is meant to be even better next weekend. I even managed to get the grass cut though it does look like it needs some TLC.

31st March, Saturday
