Above are some pics from the party M had last sunday morning...They did the indoor golf first then went on the XD theatre thing (M didn't) then the dodgems then had their food...They all thoroughly enjoyed themselves but i was not impressed at all with the service when it came to the food...I did complain about it on my way out to the manageress...The wimpy bit get given a time when your party will be there for food so that they can have the juice ready and the boxes ready to get filled up with the food...Our juice was ready but there was no boxes and the food took 20-25 mins to arrive...By which time most of them had drunk the juice and were getting bored waiting...Now ok it was a teens party BUT they were informed that they all had special needs and even then the wait was ridiculous...People just going up to buy a meal were served quicker...After food me and M went to the asda across the road to see if they had a pair of their el cheapo black trousers in his size...They did :o) but he went and bought the jacket to go with them EEKS...So he went off to school on his taxi to then walk over to his work experience wearing a suit, shirt and tie...Rubbish pics above...I feel OLD NOW...He's my BABY he's not supposed to be all dressed like that yet <sobs> It was worse on tues as he came home with a large gents umbrella they had loaned him because of the downpour...All he needed then was a flipping briefcase to complete the look...He didn't do the work experience today he went to college instead...Must say he does actually look very smart in his attire though :o) He enjoyed his time in the office which is good.
And G had his last day at school today (WAILS) ...See i am getting very OLD now...He bought a large box of thorntons chocs for the base staff and small box of heroes and big one of maltesers for the boys...He also went and bought a packet of haribo star mix for one of the boys as he has a nut allergy...He gave a thank you card to the base that i made...Which i hand sewed last night but more on that another time as i don't want to give away all my secrets yet <g> Suffice to say for now that i am particularly chuffed with these ones and how i did the wording...It wasn't the wording that was sewn on btw...Am going to stick to this way of doing the wording from now on though :o) I also made a card for his taxi escort and he gave her thejewellery from me and a small box of thorntons from him...His escort was almost in tears when he was dropped off...She's been ordered to stay in touch though :o) Actually she was in tears just not letting them fall for him to see.
Am well pleased with the opal chip beads i bidded for on an ebay shop and won...I've bidded for another string today so fingers crossed...I also bidded for 3 other items today and 1 has been outbid...Going to wait until last minute to see if i bother with upping my bid for that item...They have it on buy now as well and am not willing to pay close to the buy now price as what is the point...Apart from that there's not been much going on that i can write about on here...We have had glorious weather apart from tues when it rained cats & dogs...That was the first real rain we have had for a few weeks and was much needed...Oh am not sleeping well because am burning up again so i think i need to see my GP...The heat at night doesn't help like.

What a smart young man - and with the dark shirt a bit of a kewl dood too!
I think lots of people have been suffering from the heat at night Cathy, and tho I know there are particular reasons in your case I wonder if you've thought of getting a summer duvet? I've seen 2.5 togs advertised and that would make a big difference :)
Gosh Caff, he really really looks like you apart from he looks grown up <gg>
What a smart young man and to think we have watched them grow from boys on these pages ,Where has the time gone ? About your Question about the sewing machine ,I doubt if a home sewing machine would be up for the job you want it to do ,Not the ones you buy today ,but John Lewis would be the people to ask ..love Jan xx
awww can't believe how grown up he is now, Caff.. and Moo is right, he looks a lot like you
