My youngest daughter Stevie-Leigh turned 30
We all had a lovely meal out on Saturday night, It was a tad on the expensive side but lovely to all get together
I made this card for her on Moonpig, ordered the giant size, and it certainly was, lol
Jacob took part in his first march as part of the Squirrels
His Mum has joined as one of the leaders as they were under threat of closing down the group because of a lack of helpers. They both look lovely in their uniforms.
There was a fantastic turn out from all the the various Scout and Guide groups, it was lovely to see them all walking together, and the weather behaved too.
Oliver is a Scout in a different division and they haven't done a march in a long time because of the lack of helpers, which is a real shame.
I bought a ticket to the Makings of a Murderer tour which went on sale in January, I missed it before Christmas so when I saw it was local again I made sure I got one right away.
I was really looking forward to seeing this last week, a talk from ex Detective David Swindale covering various high profile murderers. I couldn't have been more disappointed!
He didn't talk about anything that you couldn't have watched on tv for free!
There was only one case that I didn't know about and there wasn't much information on that either.
I honestly don't know how this tour has lasted so long and has got so many good reviews because unless you have been living under a rock and not had any access to internet or tv you will know all about these cases, and he didn't say anything new about them.
By the time it came to the interval I'd had enough and made my escape. The woman next to me said exactly the same when I spoke to her, so I don't think it was just me.
So if you see this tour coming near you my advice would be to give it a miss.
I'm looking forward to another mini adventure on Friday, I'm going to Wonderwool Wales for the weekend. I'm sure that will be a much better experience 😉
