Boring day. Pig sick. Just spoke to Mom and Daddy who tell me it's 25 degrees C in Kent at 8.30am and predicted 32 in the Midlands later today(which we had just heard on the radio). It's bloody cold here. Well it probably isn't outdoors but inside in the winter it's always 5 degrees colder than out. BIG WARNING for anyone considering emigrating. Don't buy an old house. Buy something new, or better still build your own and double up on all insulation requirements.
Anybody watching Venus (or Saturn as Eric thought!). Can't see it here 'cos it's night time. We have to wait until 2012.
Popped over to the Scott-Mackies for brunch yesterday (a BH). We were meant to go to the Stokes but Kev phoned to say they were all sick. Juliet will just have to wait for her birthday pressie.
Eric and the girls took Dusty in for her jabs today but came home with antibiotics. She has a chest infection. We thought she was a bit cruddy (sticky eyes and the sneezles) but didn't think she was poorly. But apparently she is. I said tongue in cheek when he got back 'oh does this mean she'll have more energy now?'. She flies around like the devil possessed for 50% of the time now! Hope she picks up soon.
The other she-devil in the house has been slightly more tolerable today. Both girls came home having been told their projects were not up to scratch. Alice's was thrown in the bin it was so shoddy!!! Mind you I agree with her teacher. 2 weeks work and she produced about 3 lines! Trouble was it was the 'interview a grandparent' one so she had to phone Mom and Daddy again! We did actually try Eric's parents first but I think there is something wrong with their phone as they answered and then the line went dead.
Enough for now. I make it 20.38. Wonder what the 'posted by Michelle' time will give?
