They're here!

Look what arrived this morning!!


Woohoo!!

Winners!!

Time for celebrations! For the first time ever, the teachers win the PTA quiz night!!


Time for a midnight snack, as brain is too busy to sleep yet!!! Too many answers whirring around!!!

Birthday boy!

My youngest nephew is 17 today. Having made a Facebook card for his brother, I was a bit stumped for ideas. Looking at my phone I remembered that he had am iPhone. I printed out a large picture of the phone for the base card and then edited pictures of him, and logos which would have significance for him, to create the button icons. I was very pleased with the result ... and so was he!

Busy, busy, busy

SATs are over and now the real work begins - preparing the children for secondary school as well as organising all of the end of primary school events. It's only Tuesday and I'm looking forward to the weekend already!!

I love to eat!!

This is turning out to be an 'edible' weekend. Friday evening out for a meal with school colleagues. Saturday dinner round at a friend's while we cheered (the songs) and booed (the votes!) at Eurovision. Now I'm getting ready for my regular garden centre cafe lunch. The best thing about weekends like this is that I don't have to cook!!

Fridaaaaaaayyyyy!!

It's been a long week - the first five day week since before the Easter holiday!! It's also been SATs week for Year Six. Busy, busy, busy. Celebrated the successes of the week with another manicure. This time a French (or maybe an American - not sure of the difference!) manicure.

Away from it all

Rubbish day! Wish I was here!!!!

Rainy Sunday

It's not often I welcome the rain, but I'd set aside today to catch up on paperwork for school, housework and a bit of crafting, so I'm pleased there will be no temptation to go out or laze in the garden. I've even scheduled a lot of mind numbing TV to accompany my tasks - programmed which I don't have to concentrate on, or watch carefully, but still get the gist of what's going on!!


(It's all about getting the right balance of work and play!)

SIMply awful

My SIM card needs replacing and will take 3-4 days!!! Not a happy bunny!! Don't expect I'll get flowers to say sorry!!!

On a mission!!

Off to Orange and Apple tomorrow to try to sort out this silly iPhone!!! (If I had a Blackberry this would make it a very fruity day!!)

And so to bed!!

I have just spent the evening trying to tell my iPhone that despite it's 'No SIM' message and refusal to live up to it's name and be a phone, there is a Sim Card in place and it needs to recognise it!! I'm giving up now and going to bed! Ggggggrrrrrrr!!!!!!!

Oh deer!!

After a lovely lunch with friends yesterday, we came home through Richmond Park. It was packed with people and deer, except they weren't on my side of the car, so my photo has deer in the far distance only!!

A grand day out!!

So what did I do? I started at the Grand Designs Live exhibition at ExCel and saw John Burton Race giving a cookery demo.


I walked around the outside and realised how near London City Airport was!


Got the tube to Stratford and caught a glimpse if the Olympic Park, but then forgot to take a photo!!
The final stop was Canary Wharf.


This is somewhere I must go back to as I discovered a huge shopping mall underneath it!
A fab day out!! Now what does today bring?? Come back tomorrow to find out!!

Loooonnnnnngggg weekend

Ooh, another day off!! It doesn't seem like a Sunday. With so many holidays recently I'm completely out of my routine! So what to do today? A cycle ride?


A lazy PJ day?


Anyone for cricket?


A bit of baking?


You'll just have to wait until tomorrow to find out!!
