Puppy


Well that was a shock I know my daughter never takes any notice of what my hubbie and I say but this time she has excelled herself!!. This little cutie now belongs to my hubbie and I.
How could you possibly say that you do not want her!!
After losing our dog 5 days after we left for 5 weeks in Australia last Dec I think Stef has felt guilty ever since (the dog was over 15 years of age) she took Mike to Sandringham and decided that he needed a dog to take the next time.
So we pick her up on the 10th of October from South Wales and bring her back to good old Norfolk.
As Stef and the children move out so she thought we would be lonely what a wonderful thoughtful daughter we have

Indian Summer

Wow what a day it was so warm here in Norfolk that my hubbie had his shorts on still (not a pretty sight)
I love this time of the year it is still warm during the days but very chilly at night so you can snuggle up under a fleece blanket on the settee watching telly( dont watch only about 2hrs a day)
Yesterday we went to the Norwich crop run by Alison we always get a very warm welcome when we take the shop there.

lay-outs done over the weekend

I was a really bad girl at the weekend Stef had some new papers in on Friday and she took some of them to a crop and left some here and I could not resist them. I had to confess when she came home though.
Still you have to have some perks to having a shop in your spare room don't you!!!!

Peace and quiet

Well I am making the most of the peace and quiet tonight as Stef and the kids are back tommorow so it will be back to two noisy children running around!!
No I have really missed them and can not wait to see them but I will be at work when they get home so they will have to put up with grandad till Nanny gets home to see them.

Heart skipped a beat!!

Earlier tonight Stef and I went shopping (about 6pm) and on the way we saw a plume of smoke at the time we said that looks like it is near Dows (my husband works there and went to work at about 5-30pm never thought no more about it got home and took a quidk look on facebook and the first thing I saw was that someone said it was Dows that was on fire and there had been a couple of explosions well my heart skipped a beat if not two or three!!
My husband had been in a explosion in 1981 when I was pregnant with Stef.
As I was trying to ring to see if that was where the fire was my husband rang me to tell me that it was a warehouse next to Dows and that he was fine.
One of the buildings was a Grade two listed building that was part of a flax mill years ago.
Thnkfully I think that it was empty at the time. My hubbie said he could feel the heat from the flames as he parked the car on the carpark and walked across the compound to work.
After the week my hubbie has had that would have been the icing on the cake.
