Cinnamon Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Taking little daughter to get her tummy button pierced tomorrow will you be keeping your eyes open? Only to make sure she doesn't get her nose done at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janty Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 We are preparing the garden for the 'Tonys' that are arriving the weekend after. The parents don't know it yet but they're helping too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Nothing I work two or three weekends out of four, Mr Griffin is on call every three weeks so it's not often we have a weekend off together. I love those weekends because we can do stuff as a family rather than just him taking the kids out. This weekend was going to be one of those rare weekends, I was really really looking forward to it. Yesterday he told me he's on call from Thursday night because he's covering for someone else He's due to be on call from Monday anyway but I thought we at least had three days where we could go out and do stuff So he can't leave the house, he needs to be able to use the computer to dial in to work. I'll probably take the kids to my parents on Sunday or Monday. I would've rather gone with him too though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 I know how you feel Griffin I have 5 days off now and OH is also on call (it's almost 24 hours a day now). I spend more time with the animals than him. I hope you get a weekend together soon,....anyway this weekend is going to be pants weather so maybe your weekend together will be a sunny one!

Snowy Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 I'm another just me and the kids as OHs shifts coincide with the weekend However I haven't booked any work for next week so we have a few days off all together as a family. If the weather perks up we might have a couple of days away. Otherwise it's decorating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Going to the British Super Bike thingy at Brands Hatch on Good Friday and then down to the caravan for a few days over the break. Have a lovely Easter everyone whatever you are doing. my hubby is going to watch motorbike racing Monday but have no idea what or where as the interest isn't mutual I told my YS that we had tickets to see this (we all went to Silverstone to watch it last year) and he said 'oh great, another thing you're going to without me' I said no, you have a ticket too - he said 'do I have to come?' I despair, I really do give up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I am in the middle of a church marathon! Twice on Palm Sunday, meeting on Monday, Handbells on Tuesday, Choir on Wednesday, Maundy Thursday service tonight, twice on Good Friday, Holy Saturday evening, twice on Easter Sunday and then on my day off I am singing Evensong in Rochester Cathedral. On Good Friday, I am launching a new Men's Singing Group. 15 brave men have signed up and they will be singing 3 spirituals (Oh when the saints, Swing low and I'm gonna sing) and possibly Blowing in the Wind (if there's time because they're quite good!) Wish me luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 My sister is coming down this evening and staying until Monday. This holiday I'm doing lots of revision as it's the last holiday before exams start again and going to the Zoo, (hopefully) in order to sketch some animals for my art project.

chickencam Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Going to a static caravan in Devon until Tuesday. It's my birthday on Monday, so there will be some relaxing and maybe some wine and some chocolate. We will live on hot cross buns and panatonne which I am making today, and chips etc, so not much cooking has to be done Looks like it might even forget to rain on Sunday so fingers crossed.

Guest Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Tomorrow and saturday I'm plaanning on finishing hammeriting my bargain (99p) baker's rack i got from e-bay. It was black and I'm painting it a sort of brass colour... http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=198690&id=568396756&l=ffcddc0d90 I'm using it to put herbs/seedlings on in the conservatory. Will hopefully also have time to paint the walls in there too and re-jig the furniture layout. Sunday, mum is coming round for roast leg of lamb and all the trimmings. Lamb came from a farm just down the road. Then we'll probably just chill out or fall asleep for the rest of the day. Monday, i've seen a boot sale advertised in a nearby 'affluent' area so hoping I can get some nice, cheap planters to put my herbs in and display on the baker's rack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 ....Saw some ex batts at Styal Mill having fun in the puddles. ... I went there years ago with my school, we were doing a project on the industrial revolution Then, I ended up working just down the road from there at C&W in wythenshawe years later. Have you been to Dunham Massey? i think that's NT and it has the most beautiful formal gardens where you can picnic. It's lovely to get a spot under a tree, near the lake. Would be a good place for a Northern omlet meet actually. You can also BBQ in the surrounding grounds (not the deer park though obviously). It would be good to organise something in the summer there.

missuscluck Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 No I havent been and it is on my list of things to do It would be a good spot for a meet up as its only just off the M6. Count us in date permitting. If we can make it we will be there. Sounds fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
