Sad News today

Had some really bad news today so dont really feel up to blogging much

Myself and my sister Pam received a phone call early this morning to relay some really upsetting news. Our Aunt and Uncle retired to Devon a few years ago and always for as long as I can remember went to the Scilly Isles for their summer holiday. Yesterday they went out on a boat with a friend and the boat capsized, they had to be pulled from the sea, my uncle and his friend the owner of the boat survived, but my Aunty sadly didnt make it and drowned. I just can't believe it. My Uncle is absolutely devasted and so are all the family. Please think of him in your prayers.

Bad Blogger

Really sorry not been a good blogger at all over these holidays i think its the thing of the kids being off and we go out more or they are on the pc more lol.

Anyway a quick up to date for you lol

Been back to work in the summer club for a week and a half which was good we had a visit from zoo lab who brought with them rabbits,gerbils,spiders,scorpions,stick insects,tree frog,corn snake,giant millipede,giant African snails and hissing cockroaches the kids loved it have some photos and will have to spend a whole day on here adding them for you to see.

Neesa got her GCSE Results 1 D 8 C'S and 2 B'S and is off to enrol at college on Tuesday to do NVQ Beauty Therapy.
Went to a birthday BBQ last night which was very good but not good for the diet as I have gone back to WW and had far too much wine and food last night but too late now.

Think that's about it will try and be a better blogger not that I think many people actually read this but hey I can dream lol

OMG Disneyland Paris

Firstly we went to Disneyland Paris and had a fab time shattering but fab we were on the parks for the best part of 12 / 13 hours a day and it was just brilliant. The look on Rebekah's face as she saw the Disney castle and then all the characters in the parades it was just fantastic. After Disney we came home for 2 days and then went off to Scotland for 10 days camping. We went to Lauder near Edinburgh for 3 nights and it was beautiful and we went all over Edinburgh we even took part in the sunrise ceremony for the scouting centenary celebrations and then we went to Oban for 5 nights, unfortunately although we had a brill time visiting oban , loch ness , fort william etc when we got back to the site there appeared to be a permanent black rain cloud and the site was very wet. We left Oban one day early and went to Haltwistle in Northumberland where the sun shone and we had a lovely time again visiting Hadrian's wall and even had a visit into Newcastle. Came home and think I need a holiday to recover lol

Will add some photographs later
