I’m into the third day of annual leave. I’m not back at work until the 14th.
The last day at work on Thursday was an absolutely crazy day, so the last two days were spent relaxing and chilling.
I had a lovely evening on Friday, over the road at our lovely Bluebell Pub with my mate Debbie…. probably one of the best things to come out of the last two years of University study. She’s just as crazy as me…. if not more.
She’s definitely a bad influence though as one too many were imbibed and Saturday morning was a little delicate.

Today is preparation day.
Me an Ian are celebrating 25 years of marriage on Tuesday.

I still can’t believe where that time has gone!!
I went from saying I would never get married and never having kids, to being married for 25 years with 17, 19 and 21 year old kids!!

AND IT HAPPENED IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE.

Anyway, we’re leaving the kids behind tomorrow and heading to London for a week away from reality.
I’ve been keeping an eye on the weather which has been a little bit wet over the last week and the forecast has been changing on a daily basis.
The good news is that it’s going to be pretty warm all week, even if there are a few showers here and there.

So! Lots of wandering up and down the river.
There are plans to take a boat up to Greenwich for a day.
We have tickets for a Ghost Bus Tour on Weds evening in a black routemaster bus.
Ian wants to see Camden which I’m not complaining about and Murron will be soooo jealous.
Might even get to see a film in my favourite cinema again, the Picturehouse Central.
Basically just taking it easy and enjoying each day as much as possible.

Right, back to chillin’ and prepping.
