Whilst Dette was sunning herself at the luxorious Cape Schank Resort (work conference) Dad and the Musketeers thought an adventure was required. In these modern times you have to reflect from time to time on how good you have it. Dette had the car and I cant get all 4 in the Jag (if it starts). So housebound and bored we thought we would catch the bus to the shops.
Now this doesnt sound too exciting but Xander is almost 5 and the last time he was on a bus was 9 months old in Dublin. So firstly I had to spend an hour figuring out which route and bus to catch online (What did we do before the internet?)
Unfortunatley it was a 15 min walk to the bus stop but the weather was mild and the walk pleasant past the Berwick Springs Lake. Then a five minute wait and were off. The 2 minute car journey took half an hour but i guess that was half the fun. The biggest excitement was not having to wear a seatbelt. I had done a shopping list but left it in the kitchen so we wondered around for a bit and had some lunch. Brought a couple of pointless things i later realised were not on the list and repeated the journey backwards.
The desired result was a fun day out, everyone knackered and thankful for all creature comforts. We did just that today and set off to shop but had no joy with both things we went for sold out. The main one being a Wii Fit. Mothers Day tomorrow so an early night to prepare for a fun morning.
All set for the off on Monday. I think all my illnesses are over and done with and I have a dentist appointment Monday morning, hope that goes well!!!

Sunning myself??? It was raining the entire time! And even if it wasn't, i was away for work!! He makes it sound like a great couple of days away, when in reality the only fun thing was getting really drunk and bitching with my friends!!
