As I sit here with a whole week of holiday stretched out before me, I am feeling most grateful! Andy and I had a night away on Friday. We left home in the car at 3:30 and stopped at Stirling for a beer and a bowl of wedges. While we were happily munching and sipping, a cunning plan was being hatched. My Mum had driven up to Stirling in their MGB. Earlier in the week, keys had been exchanged, so while we enjoyed our relaxing little beverage, Mum took our luggage out of our boot, popped it in the MG and drove off in our car. When we got back to the car park, our car was gone and in a nearby parking space, the MG awaited us, top down, ready to go! Andy was speechless. It was the coolest thing ever! Anyway, that is just a bit of context for some of the number below!
181. Home made yogurt from Judy
182. Being well again after being so ill (although it was a little short lived)
183. Mum and Dad willingly loaning us the MG for the weekend
184. And pulling out all stops to make it a surprise for Andy
185. Spontaneous date night
186. Fairy floss, ferris wheels and Fringe-ness

197. Breakfast cooked by someone else

200. The pile of dishes that reminded me that my house had been full of loved ones last night.
