just another morning here

Since we got home from holiday we have …

Sunday
Spent the day with my family in Oxfordshire, exchanging gifts and generally having fun together

Monday
Popped into town to exchange a couple of presents (mainly unsuccessfully!), then went over to Steve’s parents for the afternoon. Watched Mamma Mia in the evening and hated it.

Tuesday
The girls had their Christmas present ‘trip into town’ with Grandma while I amused Josiah (meccano), and finally finished catching up on ACCF French homework when Anna got home (regular verb endings. My French, despite being a fluent speaker, is appalling!) Watched Angus, thongs, and perfect snogging in the evening and rather enjoyed it!

Wednesday
Helped with Anna’s science homework first thing (electric generators) and some music practice etc., trying to get back into good habits for next week! My friend came over and we took some grumbling kids out geocaching. It was freezing but this meant that the children actually had a ball mucking around in icy puddles! Found 2, dnf 1. Dropped GPSr in the river at one point but it was retrieved and seems ok!

Off out to the Adams’ in a bit for New Year’s Eve games evening, not sure if we will make it until midnight but you never know.

Happy New Year to one and all
