A busy morning going to Tesco and having a coffee before coming home and getting started on the ceilings in the kitchen/breakfast room which took pretty well all of the day but at least they are now finished.
Heather went to Peterborough with Jane and Jason as they wanted to buy a smaller stroller to take on holiday with them as she doesn't trust Ryan Air with her nice Silver Cross. They rang from Tesco Bar Hill to ask if they could come for dinner and I told them we had bought a meal deal and dad would be cooking as I was still painting. They said they would bring some food but stay and eat it with us.
I finished up painting and washed all my things up and then myself as I was spotted with white paint!
Jon cooked the dinner and Jane, Jason and Heather arrived just as we were starting to eat. They put their dinner on while we ate and Jane fed Riley so that when I had finished I could hold him and wind him while she had dinner.
They had found a really nice stroller and as it was ex display got a really good deal on it helped by Jason's bargaining skills! It has an ipod/phone plug in a pocket in the hood. How times have changed!!
We had a nice evening and Riley settled well once in his PJs. Jane and Jason left to go home and we went to bed after a long day.
Sunday
We had a bit of a lie in this morning but woke to an overcast sky and rain as had been forecast.
Heather had left to pick up her friends and drive to Wembley to watch the X Factor boot camp so we didn't see her.
I made some Ambrosia pudding to take with us to our friends for the bbq which was probably going to be indoors!
We went out for a coffee between showers and then when I came back I didn't do anything - bliss.
We bumped into a very 'hung over' Kirsty in Tesco car park! She was out last night celebrating some friends anniversary and she had to be up for work early this morning. That is two weekends in a row. Next weekend is the wedding then they have another wedding the week after and then Spain. I told her she needs to drink LOTS of water this week. Her poor liver!
We went out to the bbq and it looked much brighter and we only had one shower and all managed to eat outside but had to go indoors for dessert. It was nice to catch up with friends we haven't seen since we left for NZ.
We came home about 7.00 as Jon has a cold and is not feeling very well. It is his first cold for a few years so he shouldn't complain but nobody has a cold like Jon. Still it will get it out of the way before our holiday.
Heather finally came home at 10.30 and had had a good day. She saw the 'girls' section and said it was very tense and Cheryl got booed but she didn't want to spoil it for me when it comes on TV. They did have the chance to stay for the second session which was the 'groups' but they said it would be too late and they all have work tomorrow. And, potentially, it could go on as late as we saw last week which was just too late when you have to go to work the next day.
WEATHER
Saturday. Warm with sunny spells 22 degrees
Sunday. Heavy showers and windy 19 degrees
