Not gone

In the end, we weren’t able to go to Anthony’s wedding reception. 🙁 An unexpected expense for the car took up nearly all the money allocated to the trip. A bit disappointing really.
Jamie has still gone to stay overnight with her cousin Chloe. So Jan and I will have some peace and quiet tonight.
Maybe we’ll watch my new Lord Of The Rings DVD?

Saturday

Another full house today. Paula came round to do Jan and Wendy’s hair. Then Graham, Jackie, Thom and Bekki came. Everyone had a good time. I think everyone except Jamie and Bekki ended up getting something done to their hair! The kids played while the adults chatted.
Steve, Kim, and Megan are in Disneyland Paris this weekend. We got a text (SMS) message from Steve, they were enjoying themselves even though they had some rain.
We talked about plans for next weekend which is Anthony and Amy’s wedding reception.

Sunday

Another day done!
Jamie went to a birthday party this morning. Her second in three days! Not long after she got back, we had a visit from her old friend Finola.
Finola and her family used to live a couple of houses down the road, but they moved away (although they are still local). They spent some time together and went shopping with Finola’s mum Sue, and her little brother Nathan.

Saturday

Just got back from a fantastic night round at Steve’s house. We had some fireworks and Kim’s great chili con carne, and lot’s of fun on the dance mats. I’m exhausted!
I’ll post some pictures in the gallery tomorrow.

Sunday

A lazy day today 🙂
Steve, Kim, and Megan came round. Paula came to do Jan’s hair. I got mine cut too; and Steve his, and Jan did Paula’s hair.

Jamie’s got a heavy cold, which she hates. I’ve started reading a new book; Robbie Williams, Somebody Someday.

And that’s about it, just hanging around chatting, playing with the kids; Steve was playing card tricks on Jamie and Megan. Jan made a nice sunday dinner.

Prompted by yesterdays fun with the Micro R/C cars, I played Micro Machines V3 on the PSX, which I haven’t played for ages.
