Thursday

Time seems to fly in this place!  Lily, for the first time so far, didn't want to go to Rikiko this morning and it took quite a while to get her to stay but eventually she was happy.  I have a feeling she is a little out of sorts with Fran being around - I guess it will take a little while to settle down.

We've made lion puppets after lunch today, Pia's gone to bed, Lily' watching Nemo for a little bit and I'm doing some emails.

I've finally set up my internet so I can listen the Radio 4 on it and that's just great now.

We've got a 40th birthday to go to on Saturday night - haven't had to dress up for such a long time, I can't quite imagine what I'll wear but it should be fun and I'll meet lots of new people.

We're trying to plan a weekend away skiing in February with some friends who will also be celebrating their 40th close to mine....

Grey, cloudy skies at the moment and all the leaves on the vines are finally dropping.
