The weekend was a good one. Saturday we took our niece and nephew to the farm. It's only a few minutes from where we live and was a lot of fun. I got to bottle feed lambs and comb a donkey ( some of you know how much I like donkeys so getting to comb Silver was fabulous ) and laugh at James getting pecked by an emu, the kids had fun too. I may post some pictures later, because I know you all live to see my blurry photos.

Yesterday it was lovely, sunny if a little cold still, so we went for a drive to the beach and had dinner at the sea front. James and Corey fish and chips and I had to have what was the worst wrap from Subway ever. James went to get it and the girl working there said they didn't sell them, which is rubbish as that's what I get often. When she found out that yeah, they actually did, she made something that was supposed to be a wrap, and which James called a fold, because that's all she did. Still, eating at the sea front in the sunshine, that's not a bad way to spend time at all.

BBB writing has still been happening, if slowly. At this point I know for a fact I'll hit the minimum word count, the issue is getting the first draft done in time. Stupid stories with their stupid plots >:(

Unrelated to anything. Last week our toaster broke, so we bought a cheap one from Asda. It was part of their bargain range and damn can you tell. The slots aren't even wide enough for a crumpet, you had to jab it in, and then when it's toasted hook it back out with something, which of course makes the crumpet all tattered and wrong. I'm not impressed at all and suspect the thing may be going back.

In much happier news. I think is a fantastic idea.

I did. Though I forgot how energetic little kids actually are.

They're due the 29th of next month. But, you're making progress, and it won't be crap. I know this. Keep faith in yourself, and if you won't, we'll keep reminding you.

ugh so true. AND on the topic of asda...when has asda stuff ever been good? *sigh* i mean they have great offers and all, but all the things from their own range don't taste like anything. at least the ones i've tried oO

The Asda own range are bargains, but you're right, some fall well short in terms of taste.

I will go go go! And you too *\o/*
