Just a quiet time here between a late snacky tea and the start of Sunday night back to school sorting and of course TV time - looking forward to the Bafta's later - am hoping Colin, Geoffrey & Helena all win.
The house smells strongly of my hyacinth which has bloomed over the weekend;
We've spent quite a bit of time together as a family this weekend - sometimes just busy doing nothing. The 6 nations has been on and we've cheered the England team on and also offered suggestions to the refs of the other matches ;)
Today we headed out to Ipswich so big son could spend some of his birthday money and so we could have a meal out. Wow for a boy who for many years hated shopping he did very well - new hoodies, t-shirts, books, a game and most importantly a DVD player - I think soon he'll only have to leave his room for meals!! I soon got bored of boy shops and wandered off on my own. I bumped into Dawn in White Stuff - she seemed to be having better luck than me - I left there empty handed. I ended up in M&S and managed to find a few bits to brighten my wardrobe - including some very pretty tights with pink flowers on them - I shall feel 6 years old again!!
Once shopping had been completed we headed over to the Waterfront and to Pizza Express - thanks MrTesco for contributing towards today's 3 course lunch ;) Well 3 course for some - just 2 and the last few scoops of little sons pudding for me - here's the boys tucking into the most delicious ice cream sundaes;
Right I'd best be off - the maid appears to have forgotten to iron school shirts so I'd best do that ;)
Am looking forward to tomorrow as I get to open my Spread the Bloggy Love parcels - am quite excited and I have been giving them a poke and squeeze!!

Can't wait to see what's in your bloggy love parcel - how restrained you have been!! x
Your hyacinths are looking lovely and springy ;0)
Pleased you had a good time this weekend...Your tights sound good to me!
Funny enough, i've been buying tights again recently, and I think I must be getting younger, 'cos mine seem all youngish too ;0)
Hmmm you obviously hired your maid from the same place I hired ours!!
Sounds like a great weekend.
Enjoy your parcel tomorrow, mine hasn't arrived yet but I know its coming from an island off Malaysia and they've had terrible weather which has delayed their mail pick ups.
