Hmmm, I don't seem to have posted for a while - right, prepare yourselves for an entry which doesn't mention brass bands!

Hope everyone had a nice Easter break. We spent Friday doing lots of DIY around the house, so how have some working smoke alarms as well as mirrors on various walls, none of which have fallen down yet... I also attacked the pampas grass in the garden and removed a lot of dead wood and handfulls of snails, which appear to have been living very happily in the middle of it. Not any more .

Saturday was spent at a wedding at Church, picking up hints for ours. It takes approx 40 seconds to walk down the aisle - a useful fact to know! Then, because no weekend is complete at the the moment without spending money, we went sofa shopping. It's amazing how many different styles there are, most of which are hideous/too hard/too soft/too big/too small. Still, aided by the free champagne which the sofa stores kept giving me (Tim was driving), we have now purchased a sofa and an armchair. ETA is four weeks, so they may arrive before the hen/stag weekend...

Sunday/Monday was spent at Tim's parents house in Norwich, along with the cutest child in the world, Tim's nephew Sam. Much fun was had playing with his stacking cups - now I know what to buy Tim for his birthday!
