Happy Birthday Girls!


This photograph was taken nearly four years ago.

Isabelle and Eliza celebrated their birthdays this week, just two days apart.

Eight and four.......how time flies!

We had a joint party for them on Sunday.

Around fifty kids.

Madness.

Lots of fun though!

I love this. It's one of our many 'our songs'. Kev reckons I'm a hopeless romantic. Can't think why.............

Happy Birthday Jake!


A very happy birthday to my beautiful Jake born at 3.17am, 12/04/91

Was going to put a baby photo on here but that just made me feel all soppy so opted for this rather cool one instead.
Sorry to abandon you for the weekend in favour of visiting Meredic but I'm sure you won't mind us being out of the way!

We all love you loads!!!xxxxxx

Planet Izzy

Yeah, I know it's a bit mean, having a laugh at my daughters expense but just found this one and it made me smile. Izzy is sound asleep and yes, she has wrapped herself up inside her quilt-cover. Strange child.....must get it from Kev!

Stoopid is as stoopid does?

Me after a few bevvies..........


Kev and I went out to the Golden Hart at Nettleton Bottom for a meal last night.

The food there is good and our meal was lovely. I had chilli-beef with chocolate and rice, mmmm, and Kev had medallions of ostrich with new potatoes and vegetables which was delicious!


Kev was driving so could only have one pint of ale but I drank rather alot of very nice red wine. Not being used to drinking any more it doesn't take long before I get a bit squiffy so Kev was quite pleased to have a relatively cheap date.


After our dessert which neither of us could finish despite them being delicious (almond & honey cream cake with greek yoghurt & honey ice cream and pear and basil cheesecake, mmmm), we decided to leave for home and relieve my parents of babysitting duty.

Conversation driving down Birdlip Hill towards Gloucester...............

Me "Oh the lights.......looks pretty doesn't it?"

Kev "Look at that, it's amazing really isn't it? That's the old Roman road that comes from Cirencester to Gloucester and it's still a road now, still straight, still used, blah blah, history, blah, amazing, blah blah blah....................."

Me "Yeah...............hey what's that?"

Kev "What?"

Me "Up there"

Kev "Where?"
Me "In the sky"

Kev "Sare, for f**ks sake, it's the moon"
Me "Oh..................Oh yeah it is, isn't it?"
Kev "Bloody hell Sare, sometimes you really can be as thick as shit!"

Me "Well, I have got dyed blonde highlights and fake boobs - what d'you expect!!!?"


The annoying thing is I know how dim I can sound sometimes but I also know that I am actually quite clever.

I'm just not very good at showing it :P.....................
