Well, we are all here. After much stress, we have managed to settle in OK. Tom is fully potty trained and attending nursery twice a week.Isobel has two bottom teeth which are causing her serious grief. I have been going to church to get used to the village and meet some other mums. Mark has had his first day at school and looks like the cat who got the cream!!!
Went to London last weekend, to visit Jean & Laurence, Rich & Carrie, Joseph and William (photo of Iz and Will new best friends!!) and Sarah & Matt, Erin & Maddy (below).
Tom and Erin - he still remembers her, thank God!!
Mad weekend but well worth the travelling. Actually made it home from Berko to Birko in 3.5hours -not bad compared to the epic Italian Job!
While in Tring we went to the famous Kings Arms Beer Festival, with two live bands and Tandoori BarBQ in the garden. Got very burnt and drank far too much very pale cider - thanks to Retch, and managed to get a bit tiddly even though we have two young children. Mainly due to the fact that Mark and Rich were in charge for most of the day and night!!! Thanks boys!
Anyway, getting used to the Oxton way of life. Still haven't found Elvis Costellos house... no Mark I'm not stalking him!! Have joined a netball team, well played for them last night and am dying now. Can't walk and have shin splints - any quick remedy tips would be great!!
Found out that we are near a wealth of beautiful clean beaches, shame the weather is so pants! Maybe September will bring better weather and lots of beach bathing.
Just heard that my mate Louise has had her third little Vakis - and called him.... wait for it.... Nick!!! Thank God you are alright. Was getting worried. Anyhoo, am very emotional now so had better go. Will try and add some photos but still haven't got broadband yet which is why everything takes me so long....
