Birthday parties

Popped down to Eastbourne for Grandad's birthday party this weekend - a luncheon at the Grand Hotel there. Five adults and four children under four made it slightly more challenging - though I do need to lighten up a bit when worrying about what other people think. Fortunately James slept through most of it and Rebecca was very good until the latter stages.

Rebecca licking the plate clean - excellent table manners....


Then once that had finished we dashed back (well as much as you can dash in heavy traffic and rain on the M23 / M25) back to the birger Grandpa family birthday! A very enjoyable day.

James is always grinning when the camera is pointed at him.


I had only just recovered through from feeling rather sick on Friday afternoon - Sarah was ill earlier in the week - I was in Bourne End as well - felt very nauseous and dizzy and went straight to bed and got up on Saturday morning - though didn't eat anything until Saturday evening.

Martin spotted the vr6 on pistonheads.com for er double the money we sold it for - which is a bit of a laugh.

The Christmas season appears to have started as we are out pretty much most evenings now until Christmas - amazing.
