Well half-term is going far too quickly!

After our long day on Saturday we had a relatively quiet day on Sunday. D and K had both arranged to meet friends so I took L to Hobby Craft to spend her birthday voucher and then we came back to Morrisons to get a few bits that I needed so very exciting. On Monday Husband drove up to the edge of Bath to move S out of her current rental property. She only has two more weeks working in Bath and is going to stay with my Dad for that. He had taken all the seats out of the car and S followed him back and both cars were absolutely full to the brim plus Husbands car had a mattress strapped on the roof! It was a long day but at least it's all done and all she has to do is hand the keys in next week. 

While Husband was doing that K, L and I went to meet up with a friend and her two Daughters at the house they have recently bought, but not yet moved into. It's a big old project and it was great to have a look around and hear their plans. We took a picnic lunch and it was warm enough to sit outside and eat. The house has about an acre of land and a swimming pool but it all needs a lot of work so it's going to keep them busy for the next couple of years. In the evening we started watching "The Long Call" which we are really enjoying.

Tuesday I worked and when I came home it felt like my house had shrunk. Every cupboard I opened had things of S's in it - food bits, toiletries, airing cupboard stuff, honestly it's endless, wherever you look stuff has appeared! Daughter D's boyfriend came for dinner and then afterwards they all set themselves up carving pumpkins. They are now sat in front of the house and they have also decorated our snug window. I am not a big fan of Halloween so I have just left them to get on with it but I have to say it's all looking good.

Today we have had a daytrip out to Looe in Cornwall. On the way I had the treat of stopping at the big Waitrose in Saltash and picked up some Christmas bits to stash away. Once in Looe we picked up some lovely cornish pasties, first of the year, which we took down to the seafront to eat. We had a relaxing couple of hours walking around the town and harbour although I have to say it was very busy.

I'm not sure what we will do for the rest of the week, we shall have to see what the weather does.
